A program with 1 title in the past 20 seasons is #2?

These teams are correct but the order is jacked up.

2) LSU
3)Ohio State
4) UGA
5) Oklahoma

Which is stupid since apparently 2010 and 2011 didn't hurt Ohio State in the same ranking.

Why would UGA be ahead of LSU?

Exactly! UGA has been irrelevant up until the last 3-4 years

This list irritates me because OU is near the top yet lacks the necessary hardware.

Doesn’t make it correct though. Hell Oklahoma just had a season like that this year. No way are we behind them. I agree Georgia and Ohio ST should be ahead.

Oklahoma? Da fuk? LSU has 3 titles and played in 4 the last 20 years and comes in at #5 lol
I agree, but I'd imagine Oklahoma hasn't had some of the down years we had. I'm too lazy to look though.

Irrelevant???? Ahem, UGA should've won the 2017 title but lost in OT to Bama in the title game by 3.

UGA should've played for the 2012 title, but lost to Bama (again) in the last 5 seconds due to clock mismanagement.

In 2007 -- yes, Tigers, 2007 -- LSU leapfrogged UGA in the polls even though you were ranked two spots lower and you were chosen by the computer to play Ohio State over us and this was the only reason you got to even play for the title. Everybody knew UGA was a better team than LSU that season even though we didn't win our division that year.

UGA finished #2 in 2002 and won the SEC again in 2005. I'd hardly call that being irrelevant.

LSU has had far more losing seasons than UGA, too.

Oh, oh, oh....lest I forget....UGA just finished winning TWO -- TWO -- TW0 NATIONAL TITLES BACK-2-BACK, a first in the CFP history. LSU ain't ever come close to this.

FYI Georgia has been very good for over 20 years. They are now elite. The best damn team in the nation for the second straight year. THE osu on the other have is in decline. Can’t beat Michigan, can’t win the Big10 and sure can’t beat an elite program like Georgia

Huh? Y'all have the same amount of losing seasons over the past 20 years.

Ohio State has 1 title in last 20 years. And have lost how many title games and FF appearances? The Big 10 titles don’t impress enough to be that high.

Both have had one, but LSU had an additional NON-WINNING season in 2020 at 5-5 to go along with the LOSING 2021 season at 6-7.

UGA wins that one.

And neither one of us have had BACK-2-BACK LOSING SEASONS LIKE THE GATORS JUST HAD. Congratulations!

That's nice, but you were wrong about LSU having more losing seasons over the past 20 years than UGA.

I agree UGA has been more consistent than LSU. I don’t agree about the 2007 take though. LSU jumped them in polls after winning the SECCG. And I don’t see anything that makes me believe UGA was better that year. UGA has been so close over the last 20 and are now the best in CFB. Ohio State isn’t the 2nd best program over last 20. Too many flameouts in championship games.
