Picked to be #3 in Final AP, ahead of Texas #4 and FSU #5 and Bama #6 .....

[Top Row Dawg]

Behind Michigan and Washington. Ahead of all the rest.

247 Prediction

6 SEC teams and 2 future SEC teams all in top 20. Georgia ahead of all of em.

That would make sense, interesting they are predicting Bama back at 6. Doesn't mean much at this point...but interesting

yes, it seems like you have to see what the result of this game is before ranking the next four.  I mean suppose Michigan beats Washington by two touchdowns.  How does Alabama drop to 6 after losing to the national champion in overtime?  that would be crazy.  But it would make sense of Washington beat Michigan by two touchdowns.  

I can actually see a justification for ranking both UGA and FSU above Texas and Alabama if the game tonight is competitive throughout.  I mean, its fair to rank two loss teams behind one loss teams, that's the way it generally works as you move down the poll.

I guess theoretically you would expect the four teams in the playoff to be in the 1-4 spots since they did make the playoff and the next best team to be #5.  If I'm using logic, I'd have to say a one loss conference champ would be above a one loss non champion so Georgia would be at #6 if the ranking was logical.  We all know there is no logic in ranking outside of 1 and 2 though.

I'd rather be in the top 5 than not.
