Think about this for a minute. GT has been abysmal in recent years, but they are still in the top 20 for wins.

Of course, UGA winning the national championship this year will knock GT out of the top 20...

he is saying there won't be a tie which will eliminate 2 teams being tied forcing # 20 to drop...but 2 other teams are tied also so 19 could also drop out

UGA can win 2 more games breaking the tie with Tenn. (if Tenn. wins their bowl game). This forces Tenn. to 11 and everyone else is bumped down a spot.

y'all need to pay more attention. There's still 19 teams listed above tech. With the ties, the number directly below is omitted.

right, it will force tennessee into the currently empty/vacant position that would be reserved for #11. In other words no change to team #20

That's not how this works.

Texas 4

BUT - This doesn't take into consideration the amount of years the programs were actually playing football, so obviously younger programs will have less wins. A better measure is winning percentage.

Win % isn't exactly better when you factor in SOS.

It's not perfect, but it's most definitely better. Any one statistic is far from a perfect indicator of a program's success.

Not really. FSU has a higher % than UF but let's look at common opponents (and we also lead them by double digits in the series):

Games against Bama
UF 43
FSU 5

Games against Vols
UF 51
FSU 2

Games against UGA
UF 100
FSU 11

Sounds like the right thing to do is combine wins rank + win percentage rank.

Lots of padded wins in these totals for not playing fair home and home series. All 3 were notorious for padding wins by playing at home a lot (Undefeated Michigan played 8 home games and just 4 away games this season)

4. Notre Dame - 937


Not sure if the Irish were as bad as the above 3, would have to look

7. Penn State - 919


Respect for JoPa (especially as an IND) as scheduled tough (like the long term games with Alabama) but seems they have not been as tough since he was booted.

Impressive as when I was a young man, Gators were bad. Kentucky used to beat them a lot. To be in the Top 20 with a program that really just got going around 1980 is stout.

How old are you? We've actually had the fewest amount of losing seasons (even fewer than Bama) amongst SEC schools over the past 60 or so years.
