Let that sentence sink in for a minute.
Because Alabama beat Georgia, a team that lost to 3-loss Tennessee, they are ahead of us in the AP poll even with a loss. They have NO other quality wins.
To borrow a line from Mike Gundy, this is why I don't pay attention to the media. Because it's GARBAGE!
If we keep winning, we are poised to fall below 1-loss Michigan, Ole Miss, and ND.
I'm not whining. I don't really care because if we win out we will be in the playoff. Alternatively, we drop a game and it doesn't matter.
Just pointing out how flawed the polls are, and the impact of pre-season rankings all the way to the end of the poll. It explains a good part of the SEC's perceived dominance.
