Georgia football reclaims top spot in Week 8 Coaches Poll Top 25 rankings
Georgia took care of business on Saturday, easing to a 55-0 win over Vanderbilt. The Bulldogs now sit at 7-0 on the season and hold the No. 1 ranking in this week’s Coaches Poll.
Comments
should have been #1 last week. How is Tenn Behind Ohio State and Michigan? who has Ohio State played this season?
Tenn has the biggest win of the year with their victory over Bama. UGA has the most dominating win over #11 Oregon. Should be 1. UGA 2. Tenn 3. Michigan (by their win over Penn St) and then 4. Ohio State.
Heupel is now a genius. Just ask any Vols fan…or Mike Griffith. Designing a game plan where Bama commits 17 accepted penalties; even a Dawg fan has to admit that is genius!
Tennessee deserves the ranking. Georgia does, as well.
The Dawgs just need to do as Kirby says. Heal up and get better. Then beat Florida. One game at a time.
Let Tennessee deal with the hype.
The idea that UGA should be ranked #1 because of their crushing Oregon in week 1 is absurd because of how Georgia looked against Kent State and Missouri since. Also - and I mentioned this in a previous post - Oregon's claim to being a top 10 or top 15 team is specious because they haven't beaten anybody good AND they nearly lost to Oregon State.
So get real. Georgia is ranked #1 because they won the 2021 national title. Ohio State is #2 because they went 11-2 and finished #6 last year with the teams in front of them (Baylor, Cincinnati, Alabama) all having lost but UGA and Michigan. I will concede that Michigan should probably be ranked higher than Ohio State, but were it a "based on this year" meritocracy then not only should Tennessee be #1 (as they beat Pitt, Florida and LSU in addition to Alabama) but Clemson (who has wins over 2 ranked teams) should be ranked higher. So should TCU, who has victories over then-undefeated Oklahoma, then-undefeated Kansas and then-undefeated Oklahoma State in consecutive weeks.
