[QUOTE="RLR, post: 164907, member: 486"] I just love the logic that's used to support the 5 loss teams ahead of GT. [B]#2 Auburn, 8-5 (2014 TV rating rank: 4th)[/B] The last highly touted, 6' 5"-plus quarterback to stroll on to Auburn’s campus won both the Heisman Trophy and the national championship in 2010. So perhaps the comparison with Cam Newton isn’t fair to junior [URL='http://www.si.com/college-football/player/jeremy-johnson-0']Jeremy Johnson[/URL], who has made only two starts on the Plains. “Cam is Cam, and not me,” Johnson says. “I don’t compare myself to Cam that much.” Still, it’s hard to ignore the Cam-like hype around Johnson, a Montgomery, Ala., native who is the primary reason the Tigers should return to playoff contention. [B]#4 Notre Dame, 8-5 (2014 TV rating rank: 3rd)[/B] [URL='http://www.si.com/college-football/player/malik-zaire']Malik Zaire[/URL] has thrown 35 passes as a Notre Dame quarterback. He nevertheless has a catchphrase: Third and long—not long enough. He first recited it in the huddle during a 35-point loss at [URL='http://www.si.com/college-football/team/usc-trojans']USC[/URL] last November, the Irish’s fourth straight defeat to end 2014. The meaning: There is no amount of yardage the offense can’t gain. [B]#19 Georgia Tech, 11-3 (2014 TV rating rank: n/a)[/B] The Yellow Jackets won three of their final four games, all against top 20 teams, including a 49-34 victory over [URL='http://www.si.com/college-football/team/mississippi-state-bulldogs']Mississippi State[/URL] in the Orange Bowl.
