    Here's something dawg fans need to keep in mind. We've clinched the SEC East now, so we're in Atlanta no matter what, however, for our playoff hopes to stay alive, we MUST continue to chop and win these games out! Georgia's game at Auburn will be tough, and Georgia has lost FIVE consecutive games following Kentucky. Which is mind blowing. We gotta finally break that next week. The seniors at Auburn don't want to leave without a win against Georgia. Will be a physical battle.

    No question--it will be physical. If we don't play better next week, our playoff hopes will take a big hit.

    Our playoff hopes will take a hit but win the SECCG and we're in. There may not be any other 0 or 1 loss Champions.

    @Denmen185 I don't know about getting in the playoff if we have a loss. I think it will depend on who is then ranked above us and how long between the loss and the SECC game. Two losses for sure will knock us out UNLESS there are not quality teams with two losses. OSU and PSU will get in before we do with two losses.

    I guarantee that the SEC Champs are in with 1 loss. A loss to Auburn and a win that would either be avenging that defeat or a win over Bama will see us in. There will be multiple teams in the the top 10 with 2 losses. There will be 1 this week and at least 2 next (OU v TCU both have 1 loss). UM/Clem?ND will mean at least 1 of these will get their second loss. Washington will do well to run the table starting on Friday at Stanford. Wisconsin will not be favored v 2 loss OSU and the winner of the OU v TCU will likely have to beat the other one again. ND still has to play Stanford.

    Bottom line I certainly hope we keep our "Mulligan" in our pocket but we will be in if we beat UK, GT and Bama/Aub

    I hope you are right but we've been passed over before. Their criteria is not exactly set in stone. If we struggle and have close games in two of our last three, will we pass the "eye test"? Will our strength of schedule still be considered highly enough after Alabama and a couple of other teams finish their season? There is such a bias for ND, OSU and PSU that I don't have the confidence you do.

    I agree 100%, but “Attack the Day.” Let’s go out there and TAKE that spot!

    Since 2012, we've lost every game right before Kentucky on our schedule. Remember the South Carolina disaster in 2012 when we were ill prepared before Kentucky? Then in 2013 we lost at Auburn by a tipped pass hail mary, which was before Kentucky. Then from 2014-2016 we lost 3 straight to Florida before Kentucky. I want that streak to end this year.

    They say it's hard for teams to go undefeated in the SEC nowadays unless you get lucky, but if there's any SEC game left on our schedule that's losable and would spoil our chances of going undefeated, it's Auburn, and it's a really good Auburn team scheduled before Kentucky.

    On Georgia's 2018 schedule Florida is before Kentucky again.

    We may or may not lose Saturday but I promise you that it will have nothing to do with playing Kentucky next week. If istill in doubt I suggest you put your shoes on the wrong feet at 3:38pm; it always works for me.

    GOOD NEWS! Right before the 2017 season, Kirby erased ALL of the old streaks, good and bad, and the Dawgs got a new start on everything.
    Georgia hasn't been 9-0 since 1982. Now it's time to chop wood against the Eagle Tigers.
