Georgia is now a must win game. And it’s likely we’re going to have to do it with the 2string QB. Opportunity to achieve legendary status.

You know.... just once I would like Coach after we beat the brakes of JawJaw Saturday. Refuse to take questions at the post game and say something extremely sarcastic, like "what are you all doing here.... you didn't believe in us last week or before that....why don't you go interview one of your golden child teams" then drop the mic and walk out 😂😂

We are technically on Top of the SEC and we beat AL which is a better win than Texas.so we should be the TOP SEC team ranked which should be in TOP 4

But Texas has all them big wins.. oh wait they don’t. So why the hell are they so high on Texas? They got absolutely skull dragged at home.

One thing to take away from this, the committee very notably pointed out with Ole Miss that they hold/value good wins much more/higher than they do bad losses.

Ole Miss's 28-10 win over now #12 UGA easily more than balanced out their 20-17 loss to a currently 3-6 Kentucky team. (Not to mention 6-3 South Carolina now being ranked also further boosts their resume)

Once a team is no longer in the undefeated/one-loss category, their having wins over really good teams seem to be more of determining factor than bad losses / losses to bad teams.

Honestly, it doesn't matter. The only real advantage is a bye achieved by winning the conference. Everything else is just shuffling your round one opponent.

I know we don’t want to admit it, but our SOS isn’t the greatest and our loss is bad. Shouldn’t have lost to Arkansas. We’d be #1 or #2 at this point and not having this conversation. Gotta just play the games in front of us.

Completely false. We are below Penn State and Texas.

BYU should've lost and jumped us. That's got to be a joke. CFP committee has proven to be corrupt year after year honestly. They have no consistency in their criteria at all.

This is also true. Won by a last second FG over a middling team? Sure, jump the team who won easily by 19.

If we would win the games we’re supposed to win, for once, we wouldn’t have this constant whining year after year about how biased the system is.
