Georgia at #3 is proof of the media's love for the SEC

That's how I was using it, your analogy was inaccurate.

It's the same thing. You can't tout a win over a team as a top 5 win because of their pre season ranking if the team finishes the season unranked or barely in the top 25 regardless of what they were ranked at the time you played them. Do you have any idea how stupid you sound?

I don't think that preseason rankings and rankings at the time of the game are compareable, just as rankings at the time of the game and current rankings aren't. However, I do think that an opponents rank at the time they are played does matter.

Take South Carolina for instance, Georgia played them (and got whooped) when they were healthy and ranked 6th in the Nation. They couldn't maintain that rank because of injuries, but at the time of the game they were deserving of their it - I believe.

I think we are arguing over semantics and other BS here.

Bottom line is, if UGA doesn't deserve their rank then who does?

They are now in prime position to go to the NCG if they beat Bama. They played only two top 25 teams this season. Eeeked out a win against one and got blown out by the other.

Or you could just go all the way back to 1970, go forward and look at how many times Alabama backed into a title claim because they were kings of the SEC.

Any SEC team that has played/won a title could be said to have benefitted from bias... or any other team from any conference for that matter. It's just ironic to hear a Florida fan complaining about SEC bias when it's benefited them plenty.

USC to Clemson
UF to FSU
UGA to Bama

Not only possible, but maybe likely.

If not Georgia, who goes at #3? The team that Baylor spanked? The team that cannot even win the Pac12 North unless Stanford loses? Florida State? Maybe, if they beat Florida.

I think Oregon should be ahead of Georgia. They don't have a blowout loss on their record and they've beaten more ranked teams.

I would agree with this. I'd still put them at #3. No further than the SEC teams have fallen after a loss it's only fair.
