The machine that has routinely underrated Georgia for years has this season’s bunch currently ranked… fifth?

UPDATE:
I think this says more about the 2020 season than it does about Sagarin’s computer.
Is it accounting for Daniels, as in, had Daniels played vs. Florida we would’ve won?

As in a mentally/physically ready Daniels….a healthy one?

Currently, 5th seems right to me. Florida and before… not so much.

As you said on twitter, the home field “advantage” factor is .84 – maybe only 3 home games explains it…

Probably…..not sure if the selection committee is any better though.
They will still find a way to get OSU and ND in there. But I guess any system can be subjective until we have a free for all.

The last sentence, that’s the important part. Every week this season goes by, the more farcical it looks. I like watching my team play. But the rest of it? You’re kidding yourself if there isn’t a Polaris-sized starry asterisk next to anythijg that has to do with the 2020 CFB season.

I think it’s fun to dig up where the old BCS formula would place teams.

There aren’t a ton of interconference data points in a normal year – this year there are zero. I have no idea how the computers handle that.

Maybe because the Dawgs, without Daniels, handled Tennessee better than the handbags.
Not really.
Who knows? It’s either a glitchy mistake, or it’s taking Daniels emergence as huge.

Well there is this – we may be the only team that has played Alabama with the lead at the end of the first half.

I think Bama will be a 15.5 point favorite on Florida.

I’m hoping Bama beats the spread by about thirty or so. As much as I cannot stand ‘Bama fans, Handbaggers are the scourge of the earth.

The only thing I can figure: We haven’t played Vandy yet, so that’s skewing the SOS numbers.
