Kind of amazing that a 5 point loss to the #1 team supposedly knocks us out of it while UGA loses to a crap South Carolina team, Oregon loses to the 5th best SEC team, and Clemson gets to coast in on the backs of a bunch of creampuffs....but I get it. If we had something else outside of a (potential) win over a 4 loss Auburn team, we'd probably have something to hang our hat on. We knew going into the LSU game that our season was on the line. That's what makes the first half so frustrating to me.

I buy that its tough to find people to play us but I also think Bill Battle was a horrible AD and mailing in our schedule fits his modus operandi.

Yea I think we would have beaten most #7-20 type teams this year, and a lot of them with ease.

But we didn't get the chance, and that's how this works. It is what it is.



Also, did anyone see what Saban said last night? They are actively engaged on some more OOC games and their full intention is to play 2 P5 games a year every year. Pretty fantastic.

Does anyone else think A&M might sneak a win over Georgia? Georgia just had a tough rivalry game and could get caught looking ahead to the SECCG. I don’t expect it’ll happen, but if it did that’d be another ranked win because surely an 8-3 A&M with a win over Georgia is in the top 20 and could maybe stay ranked after a loss to LSU.

Georgia has to beat LSU, Oregon has to win out, and Clemson is undefeated.
