AE87 basically says the reasons here.I believe any non-GT fan that keeps up with college football would strongly disagree with this statement.
It’s not just ESPN that’s hyping the SEC machine. I was listening to the radio this morning and literally everyone is saying FSU doesn’t even deserve the top 4 because they play nobody and that all these teams in the SEC West are better than they are. Luckily the radio host ripped one guy a new one when he asked what “his” top 4 was which included Oregon whose best wins are MSU and Utah.Read the link in the So it is written (oslt) thread. The national media doesn't think the ACC is any good and has unbeaten FSU falling in ranking while winning. Yet, they also entertain the possibility of 2-loss georgie playing their way into the playoffs by winning the sec. A 10-2 GT playing in the OB after beating an sec contender while a 13-0 FSU plays in the playoffs has people talking about the ACC and GT positively. A 10-3 GT who lost to SEC #4 playing in the OB with no ACC team in playoffs, probably only pwr5 left out, does not.
I’m not trying to say that beating UGA is more important than an ACCCG. What I’m saying is that THIS year with the record we currently have, if I had to choose I think it looks 1000x better for us to beat UGA and lose to FSU because the whole country thinks FSU isn’t a top 4 team and us beating them would only be an indication of FSU being weak and not us being good. If we beat FSU, we won’t be the ones being talked about in the offseason. The offseason will just be people rejoicing in the fact that they were right about FSU being weak and wouldn’t have a chance if they were in the SEC.
