Georgia didn't playing a national championship game, they didn't exist back then.

Per se this is true. But (I am guessing you were not alive back then) everybody in the country that was football fans considered that game to determine the NC. Now, that might change according to the outcome. But everybody knew thta if Georgia won we would be crowned National Champions. In fact, you could go down the years and do the same thing.

You are correct, though in that there was no direct game titled The National Championship game. There were games that determined the National Championships, though and that was one of them.

That year you played:

#7 Notre Dame
#14 South Carolina
#20 Florida

And that is of the time rankings. If you do final rankings, I think Notre Dame was the only team that finished ranked on your schedule.

And your point? Is it that we played an easy schedule? yes. We did. Are we the National Champions for the 1980 season? Yes. We are.

So Walker set his record without playing a single ranked team.

That's silly, since you just pointed out three teams that were ranked when Georgia played them, therefore he played against ranked teams.
