I dont believe there is one truly best team in the country. Georgia has been very lucky in a handful of games and could easily have 4 losses
Just saying what I think, their defense is pretty good. Beck may not play but with Etienne back they can score enough points.

A lot of teams have pretty good defenses. Beck is nothing special. A lot of luck this season, maybe it continues but they are pretty inconsistent

This is what I was getting at last week. I do not see the point of conference title games anymore. Unless the teams ending up with identical records and didn’t play in the regular season, the risk is far too high for the team with a better conference record. Missing out on the playoffs because you played a 13th game that most didn’t have to play just doesn’t seem fair to me


If we look at the CCG as an extension of the playoffs, it makes that much more palpable.

But I'm not losing any sleep over a team that didn't beat a single ranked team. If they choose Bama so be it.

Texas should be out as well then right?

Or choi and Landweihr

Yeah, that would be the one to bump. Couldn't really bump Mitchell/Gracie because like Mitchell said after the fight..."That's a Gracie, man." lol

Have to say, I was shocked to see that fight in the prelims. Seemed kind of disrespectful to Sterling because of who he is, but also to both fighters since they're both top 10.

Georgia has the best defense, I’m confident in that. I agree on Beck.

And he got robbed on the decision lol.

Thinking on it, it sends a really bad message if you punish a team like SMU for playing an extra game.

Yep it kills conference title games from the ACC/BIG 12 if you kick SMU out for losing a close 13th game that Bama didnt have to pay

I think @Shanemansj13 is right about the seeding though as that must change ASAP. Boise and ASU getting a bye over teams like Penn State, Ohio State, and Tennessee is a joke
