Ohio State ended the season on top by beating Notre Dame on Monday night.

You know, if you only beat a team once but they advanced further in the playoffs, maybe I put that team ahead but when the only team to beat them did it twice? I’m sorry but playoffs mean jack. Georgia was clearly better than texas and their weak schedule.
Wow !! Kirby was the only Coach to get it right !!
To show the discrepancies between coaches..some had UGA high as #4 while others had UGA at #8 or lower, behind ASU and Boise State..are these clowns actually serious? Shows these polls are based on nothing more than biased opinions.
Air Force coach actually had the DAWGS at #4, ahead of Texas and pedo state.
"The Big Ten had 4 teams ranked."
There are 5 Big 10 teams ranked Connor: Illinois, Indiana, Penn State, Oregon and Ohio State.
@navydawg and @87dawg
Yes, Georgia is better than Texas (because of specific matchups that are another story for another day). But polls don't consist of comparing teams head-to-head. Instead, they try to determine which teams would beat the most other teams and rank them accordingly. And they believe that Texas would beat more teams than Georgia would.
Why? They believe that both teams have very good but not great defenses, though they would rate the UGA defense better. But they believe that Texas has a much better offense. Not a great offense. Wisner, Blue, Golden and Helm aren't in the same class as the squad at Ohio State. But the Texas WRs and TEs could separate from defenses and didn't come close to being the national leaders in dropped passes. And their RBs Wisner and Blue outperformed Etienne and Frazier by a good margin.
So, no one believes that Texas would have lost to Notre Dame. Likewise, no believes that a UGA team where Cash Jones made the only offensive play that mattered against Notre Dame would have beaten Penn State or Oregon.
As I stated..all are opinion choices by different individuals. Absolutely no hard facts to substantiate their decisions, only opinions, and assumptions.
we beat Texas twice and rank behind them. sigh
