So A Georgia team who lost to a worse team than Oregon gets ranked higher . That’s is 100% BS

If Oregon beats Utah that will beat any win by Georgia by the way because Florida Hasn’t beaten anyone as good as Utah .


Florida has beaten Auburn. What is Utah's case for being a good team? Narrowly beating unranked Washington? They are 1-1 against the top 40. Yet we agree they probably are better than Florida because of how we judge teams.

This debate is never about quality of wins. You can't track quality wins over the course of a 12 games schedule. For over a century, this sport has subjectively and objectively used metrics like like Strength of Victory (and more recently yards-based and turnover-based measures) to award national championships or rank the best teams. Without that support, Clemson would be nowhere near consideration.
Or going undefeated in a supposedly power 5 conference even though the AAC has more ranked teams than the ACC at this point lol
(AAC = 4, Cincinnati, Memphis, SMU, and Navy) (ACC = 2, Clemson and Wake Forest)

So UGA lost at home to an unranked, 4-5 South Carolina and is still #6, Utah lost to an unranked, 5-4 USC that's about to fire their coach and is still #8, and Oklahoma lost on the road to #16 K-State and is... 9th?
Not sure what Georgia's excuse is (SEC bias?) but Utah's win over BYU is a bit interesting as BYU won over USC, you could argue the loss to USC by Utah was a fluke (or just circumstantial as USC had revolving QB's at the time). Oklahoma's loss is also a bit more recent, so there's that aspect. The committee certainly takes into account how recent the loss is (whether they admit it or not), Utah's loss was earlier in the season and therefore less consequential. I suppose the same is true of Georgia, but meh. (Georgia also has a win over a top 10 team.....I suspect OU would be higher up if Texas hadn't crashed and burned so badly.)

A couple of things.
1. I am gonna keep using AP rankings in terms of the pick em because it comes out on Sunday. I don't really want to wait until Tuesday Night to do the rankings, but I will use CFP rankings for the bowl games and the playoff games etc

2. There are a lot of G5 games this week in the pick em because there honestly aren't a ton of competitive games in the P5 Tongue
