Are UGA, LSU, and Bama the only SEC schools to win a real natty in football?
It worked? USC was named national champs by the AP poll in 2003. They have the trophy in their trophy case. The national media largely refers to them as the champs. You really think the BCS worked?
Yes, and USC's SOS was woefully lower than LSU's (a BCS criterium). Their one loss was worse than LSU's. USC also beat the #11 team in the Rose Bowl............. #11. LSU beat the #1 team.
13-1 LSU not only won the SEC Title by 3 TDs over homestanding Top 10 Georgia, but they beat #1 Oklahoma in the Sugar/BCSNCG - the same OU team that destroyed everybody in the regular season averaging nearly 60 points per game.
The BCS was the agreed-upon system by all of CFB.
The AP is just the media, an opinion.
Oh, and if the AP was so 'largely referred to by the media' , then the next year, WHY WASN'T USC KNOWN AS THE 2004 """"" A.P.""""" NATIONAL CHAMPS ??????
You know what they were referred to ????????????
THE 2004 BCS NATIONAL CHAMPS.... No mention of the 'A.P.'

But that wasn’t the norm
How so? Uga dominated opponents and killed clock often.
quote:
Look at the box scores. Bennett played the whole game once he took over, and had comparable states in both halves.
Overall Number of pass attempts were cut in half from first half to second half.
Killing clock drastically reduced his total yardage and number of tds.

another QB should have decent second half stats.
This makes absolutely zero sense to say if you understand what killing clock means.

Bennett was 16th in the sec for 4th q attempts, so hopefully this is what you meant by “not normal”.
Probably not, so I bet you mind is blown.

In 2022:
UGA average ACT is 31-34. Georgia College’s average ACT is 23-27. Again, UGA is much closer to Harvard than GC is to UGA, at least based on raw stats.
I do not believe that Georgia College was ever more competitive than UGA, even in 1994. Given the immense difference in prestige in modern day, the burden is on you to prove that GC was in fact better just a couple of decades prior.
UGA, though not the more “national” university that it is today, still dominated the state in 1994. Prove that Georgia College has somehow become less competitive as the state of GA has almost doubled in population since then.
I didn’t even realize that “Georgia College” existed until my senior year at UGA, it’s so irrelevant.

Teams like 2010 Auburn were as great a champion as they come, no matter what format.

The norm for him… as he didn’t attempt many passes in any quarter. He only attempted 287 passes in 14 games played or 20 attempts per game (71st in the country in yards per game by the way)

Bennett had the 8th most attempts in the 1st q and 7th most in the 2nd q, which proves Bennett having the 16th most in the 4th q was NOT the norm for him.
It’s funny that you can’t admit why his attempts suddenly reduced by so many in the 4th q.

The playoff solves everything and needs to expand to 12.
Except it doesn't. It cheapens the value of regular season, creates more opportunity for key injuries in games that are almost a foregone conclusion before they start, and, worse, only injects more money corruption into a game that has been ruined by the chase for the almighty $$.
The BCS at its end typically had it right. The playoff committee has no transparency and is more political than anything. Bring back the BCS model, but replace Harris Poll with the committee and throw out the Coaches Poll. Make the computer polls display their methodology openly and make committee member votes known. Keep it at 4 teams.

So you just erase the history of college football before the playoff era? I miss the BCS era, it put such a importance on every single game. Today teams know they can lose at least 1 game and be fine. I know the reason you are saying this is because your Dawgs wouldn't have a national championship if it was still the BCS era. After that beat down in the SEC championship when Bama was healthy UGA would not of made the playoffs.

Just stop already and how healthy was Georgia? Last I checked they were w/out their top WR and pass rusher.

GC required a higher GPA and SAT/ACT than UGA in 1994.
Horse crap.
From the Georgia College 1994 undergraduate catalog: Minimum SAT score required for admission 740 GPA 1.80 on 4.00 scale
I haven't found UGA's 1994 requirements but according to the UGA 1994 Fact Book the average high school GPA of freshmen was 2.57 and it looks like the SAT was somewhere around 1100.

Credit for the 21 title actually belongs to the Alabama injury bug. Everybody knows Georgia gets run off the field without it.
