Holding my nose and pulling for GA.

As hard as that is, is it possible that if MICH clobbers TCU, GA has significant wins against OSU and then MICH, that UT and Bama would join GA in the final top 3? If Bama squeaks by and we win big maybe we end up number 2. In this case I believe the end justifies the means.

Just need GA to beat the Big10 guys by more than 14 to make it tough to not drop them. I will also suck it up and pull for SC, 1 because it makes our loss look better and 2 they are playing ND.

If we lose I may have to reassess my position, but doubt it.

Nope. I want OSU to beat the brakes off uga. They are in our way. The only way to pass them is for them to lose and us to win. It may take another year or two before we get all the help we need to do that. If OSU doesn't do it, then I hope TCU or Mich. blow them out in the final. And I really do want to see them get blown out...30 to 50 point beatdown would be great.

No absolutely not. No way does it help Tennessee for an sec team to win a post season game (playoff or bowl)

I pull for all SEC teams except for Ala.

Since Fla changed coaches, I am less of a gator hater.

We recruit harder against GA.. Kirby with a bunch of Sabenesque Natty rings won't help that. And if they get beat by "an inferior team" it gives us gunpowder to recruit against them down the road. Come on guys, think outside the box!!!

Kirby either conceded GA this year or got beat badly at home. He only took 5 GA kids, of which 3 are 4* and got 10 kids out of FL, who were all 4-5*. Meanwhile Dabo got 11 GA kids of which 8 are 4*.

If GA loses our loss to them looks worse, if Bama loses our biggest win gets diminished. GA will recruit like GA next year anyway, and I believe if we finish in the top 3 or 4, the number we put in our press guide, then we should gain credibility vs GA and especially against the rest of the field. I will pull for any scenario that improves our historical ranking. I don't see anybody behind us jumping us IF we win and GA wins. A bama loss could be good for us, maybe insuring #2, so that is in play, but would rather they win and we jump them. Three teams in the top 4 would pretty much insure a better shake for US next year if we are still in this 4 team format and we are in play. Heck, we still have a lot of portal action possible after the bowls and the higher the better.

I ain't pulling for ESPN's darling precious Yankee teams and I sure as hell ain't rooting for those butt-sniffing monosyllabic breeding mistakes down south, so I guess that makes me marginally invested in either TCU or Cancelled Due To Weather.

Do you think there are any SEC team fans are pulling for the Vols to win? Heck no. I use to pull for my two favorite teams, now it's my three favorite, the Vols and who ever is playing Bama and Georgia.

For the rest of the SEC, I say let the football gods decide.
