Mr. Conventional Wisdom is here to help.
Some of us figured it out before Week 11, but I guess Tony wanted to be really, really sure before he went out on that particular limb.

… is everything you’d expect. Literally.
“I think the Clemson game is huge, (because) if Georgia can find a way to beat Clemson, the schedule sets up really nicely for them,” Barnhardt said. “You’ve obviously got to play Florida in Jacksonville and you’ve got to go to Auburn, I understand that, but if you beat Clemson you’re in really great shape.
“If you lose to Clemson, then all of your margin for error is gone, and you’ve got to run the table and probably beat Alabama in Atlanta. So I think there’s a lot riding on the Clemson game.”
And to think information like this is just out there… for free.

Sample the wares, peeps.
Yes, Tony weighs in on one of college football’s most contentious topics du jour and the results are… well, what you’d expect.
To the idea of an eight or 12-team playoff, I write a sentence I thought I would never write:
Bring it on.
I’m sure it’s pure coincidence that’s what the people running the sport want.

C’mon, admit it. You’re dying to know Mr. Conventional Wisdom’s take on Georgia’s opener.
This is a huge opening game as both teams have national championship aspirations. The winner gets a leg up. The loser can still get back in the race.
Okay, maybe not.

I’ll leave it to you as to whether that concept is oxymoronic. Instead, I’ll just focus on what he poses about Georgia’s place in the SEC East at the moment.
Burning questions: Is it now or never for Kirby Smart and the Bulldogs? Not only no but hell no. The narrative that the window of opportunity to win a national championship in Athens is closing is silly. As long as you recruit great players in sufficient numbers every year you have a chance. Having said that, does Georgia have a roster that puts them in the national championship discussion? Yep. Georgia has a franchise quarterback in JT Daniels. And if wide receiver George Pickens (ACL) gets back on the field some time this season it could get interesting. Even if Pickens doesn’t return there is a lot of talent (Kearis Jackson) in that receivers room. Georgia’s good. But can the Bulldogs win the East and beat Alabama? We’ll learn a lot about Georgia when it opens the season against Clemson.
You know, he almost had me with the first three sentences. But he came through like the champ we all know he is in the last two.

Since I’m not heading up to Athens today, Tony, you’ll have to forgive me if I feel a little empty right now. But kudos to the SEC for not letting anything stand in the way of getting that sweet broadcast money.
