Re: Georgia was ranked when they played them. Can't count

them as unranked. I know I count them as ranked b/c they were when we beat them. I think it's more about where they are when you play them. Was Georgia a top 25 team? Absolutely! Are they now with all the injuries? Not even close.

Obviously the pollster thought 3 wins over legit top 10 teams means more than losing in Knoxville.
but the answer to your trivia is yes.

This is where the polls get a little crazy.

USuC is not the 4th best team in the country. They move up 5 spots for beating Wisconsin? Several 11-2 teams are better than the dirtpeckers.

Yes and the genius who coined the term Clemsoning has obviously never seen Spurrier in action.He!!,they invented it when they lost to Navy in 1984.

I think it was looked upon as an "upset"
Jan 7, 2014, 9:15 AM

It happens and it cost Carolina a spot in the SECCG and maybe more.
But what I think folks looked at more was beating 3 top 10 teams, 5 top 25 teams and 6 teams that won bowl games. Two teams: Mizzou and UCF, had their only regular season loss to Carolina.
Or 20% of the Top 25 and 30% of the top ten.

Carolina was missing our starting QB...
Jan 7, 2014, 9:29 AM
|

...for 3.5 Quarters and came in only being able to throw, not run, due to injury. But, hey, if that makes you feel better.
And UCF went 12 and freaking 1 and beat a Baylor team many thought were going to play for the NC.
I guess you guys can start a change.org page to overturn the results of the last five years and this year?

of Tennessee by trying to be funny and wasted his timeouts. He is the reason they didn't make it to the SEC championship and possibly the National Championship. It has to sting and I love it.

We shoot ourselves in the foot with this type of logic. We lost to the team who lost to the team that didn't goto a bowl and still finished #8. They were 3-0 vs. Top Ten while we were 0-2. I'm certainly not complaining.

"Us"? So are you refering to UT still beating you?

You are correct.
And as long as you put up with Slurrier is god you will remain an also ran. He lost to UT and you don't care. With your talent you should have been playing in the SEC Championship game but your drunk coach had other plans.
