Kirk Herbstriet and his media goons went on a tirade the year LSU jumped Georgia for a title shot because we didn't win the SEC. A few years later these same media goons are doing everything in their power to make sure Alabama plays for a title even though they didn't win the SEC.
I'm a big UGA homer, but these situations are not comparable. in 2007, OSU was the clear #1 at the time, the question was who was #2. It came down to us and LSU, they won the SEC we didn't, pretty simple. In 2011, LSU won the SEC and was the clear #1, it was then a matter of who is better in the voter's mind Bama or Okie St. Had those 2 been in the same league, Okie St. would have gone for winning the league, but they played different opponents and Bama was deemed stronger.

I agree, on paper we had no real right to go. However, my question is this; how did LSU jump 5 spots? OSU was 3rd and we were 4th and LSU was 7th going into that weekend. 1 and 2 lost obviously. I know why we didn't go, but why didn't the other teams ranked ahead of LSU go? They jumped over 2 other conference champs with equal records. I just don't see how you could justify them jumping that far after losing to UK and Arky.

No it's not simple. We were ranked 4th and they were ranked 7 when 2 teams ahead of us lose. They jumped us for beating UT essentially and it's bullshyt. Complete and utter bullshyt. Period. If UGA is in a conference with no title game we simply move up and play for the title. What's the point in having polls if you are goin to manipulate them over who went to the title game? It's bullshyt. Alabama didn't have to win the title then neither should Georgia....it's that simple.
