It’s always fun to pour though this. FSU is a unanimous number one. What may not be noticed is that Auburn was close to being a unanimous number two pick, with only two coaches voting otherwise – in this case, Michigan State. The two? Dana Holgorsen… and Mark Dantonio.
Also, don’t miss where Mike Gundy ranked his team and Oklahoma.
Kingsbury puts Alabama #6.

Bret Bielema put Ohio State at #12.
Urban Meyer did not include Georgia in his top-25.
And the coach who voted Georgia highest: Jeff Quinn (Buffalo).

I’m sure Corch’s omission wasn’t intentional, probably too much pizza grease on his fingers.

A whole bunch of coaches left us off completely–basically those we recruit against and those that have a grudge from past whippings (June Jones, for example). They need to just shut this entire poll down. It’s being used by some coaches to advance agendas they have.

As a side note, looking like Georgia-Duke in Chick Fil A. Even though it is a home game, not remotely interested in this. Guess that is what you get when you lose 4.

Just swell. If there’s one thing David Cutcliffe does well, it’s shred Georgia defenses.

Neither of his QBs looked all that good at passing though, and the D looks like a great practice squad for Mason and Co. to run up the score.

Screwed by powers to-be in Athens and Birmingham. We play the Huskers again. How damn boring is that. Nobody in Athens has any power or balls. Just a bunch of damn nannies. All these blog sites love stats. Well, they are going to be shocked to see the Dawgs above Missouri and Auburn in most of those stats.

Dawgs lead Missouri and Auburn in total defense and rushing defense. Where is all the freaking damn belly-aching about his young, injury riddled defense that played some solid teams. Well, next year we play Auburn and GT at home. We in hell did that happen last. Probably when Vince was a frosh at Auburn.

Here is my early New Year’s wish. Hey, AD about getting your sorry damn ass in gear and do something for the football program. First, we are tired of the damn one-sided freaking chicken shit officials we have to play plus the teams on the road all the freaking damn time. Second Dawgs do not play a team unless there stadium holds 85,000.

Whether its screwing us out of the title game, a BCS bowl, or just breaking it off in us by giving us the least motivating team possible in the event we get an automatic bid (see Hawaii, West Virginia, or a 7-5 ACC champ, of simply the coup’d’grace of matching us against an opponent who has a thousand times more to gain out of a bowl win than we do, the Murphy’s law of bowl game bids rears its head again: If Georgia can be screwed they will be screwed.

Tell me it isn’t true, we rarely get a decent bowl match up, it is almost always someone who has a lot more to gain by beating us than vice versa.
