Orange Bowl press conference
- Thread starter patdog
- Start date
Teams in Georgias position often don’t show up for the bowl game & get blown out by a heavy underdog.
Devil’s advocate, but if FSU beats Georgia and there’s a 1-loss CFP champion, could we have two national champs (AP Poll)?
Not so fast. I fondly remember a dominant 2008 SEC squad that felt overlooked by the BCS committee, wasn’t fully committed to a consolation Sugar Bowl, and got trounced by Utah. It was glorious.
And that was before draft pick players opting out of bowls was fashionable.
I was just thinking about Bama vs Utah in 2008.
That being said, I think both teams are going to have a lot of opt-outs and I think Georgia is a little bit deeper, so that's going to hurt Florida State worse.
If Rodemaker plays, good chance FSU wins. Georgia absolutely won't care. I think FSU will, simply they got screwed beyond the mind's imagination. Georgia - eh, their schedule wasn't great and they got solidly beaten by Alabama. And personally, I don't know that Georgia was THAT good this year. They were kinda living on the past two years.
Georgia will probably be a monster again next season, though.

Solidly beaten by 3 points (with UGA missing a FG & gifting UA one)?
I was just about to say.....
How in the world was that being solidly beaten? If anything, I still think Georgia is one of the top 4 teams in the country. If you take all this nonsense out of the equation, the actual top 4 teams are:
Alabama
Georgia
Michigan
Ohio State
Nobody in their right mind thinks Washington or Texas has a chance in the championship game, and it's criminal to allow one of those two teams into the championship game.
