So how did Georgia get that lucky?

Schedule for the Dogs is strange...

     I have no idea how the SEC decides who plays who in the SEC. From all appearances they take a bunch of idiots and load them up on cheap liquor before they draw up the games. Whatever happens needs some serious revision. Once again Georgia dodged Alabama and LSU. The Dawgs also didn't have to play Mississippi State or Texas A&M. In other words the Dawgs missed the best four teams in the SEC West. They did play Ole Miss who was pretty good for a .500 team, and Auburn who was worse than their 3-9 record indicates. If Georgia had to play in the SEC West my bet is they lose a minimum of three games. I think Alabama, LSU, and Texas A&M will probably have beaten the Dawgs. They Dawgs may not have beaten Mississippi State in Starkville.

Two sets of rules in play here...

      My point is that all divisions champions are not created equal. I am not suggesting that the Georgia Bulldogs road to their division championship was easier. I'm just point blank saying it was so easy it was embarrassing. Georgia had three "tough" games to win their division. They beat a sorry Florida team that may be the worst ten win team in college football history if you don't count Notre Dame. They got sent packing back to Athens by a pretty good South Carolina team by four touchdowns. The beat Vandy 48-3. I'm more impressed with their win over Vandy than Florida. Florida had more miraculous escapes from defeat than an oiled up Harry Houdini. I'm not saying that Georgia has no chance to beat Alabama. They might be able to do so. I just don't think Georgia played the strength of schedule that Alabama or LSU played. Whether that makes a difference may not matter. I bet it will. I'm betting that Georgia hasn't played a team like Alabama. Georgia has the reputation of folding in the big games. Aaron Murray has won one out of nine games against ranked teams. Anything came happen on a given night. Mostly that doesn't happen.

      My main question here is how can the SEC allow Georgia to skip Bama and LSU every season. I know they were supposed to play Alabama this season, but when Missouri and TAM got into the SEC things changed. Instead, the Bulldogs got Ole Miss at home. I understand the importance of the Auburn-Georgia game. No need to touch that historic rivalry. Ole Miss for LSU or Alabama?  Who's minding the store in the SEC headquarters?  Certainly, no one who has a brain or a sense of fairness. So here's what we have. We have one team from the West who played teams that won 41 games. Georgia, but comparison played teams that won 41 games as well.  That seems fair. But Georgia played two teams that didn't win an SEC game (Auburn and Kentucky). They played one team team that won only one SEC game (Tennessee). Missouri won 2 SEC games. That's not a schedule, those are practice games that count were as SEC games.
    

          Ending up the blog today I want to add that three of the coaches that coached teams against Georgia are no longer employed today. Chizik, Dooley, and Joker Phillips. All great guys, but their failure on the field got them axed. Two of them, Chizik and Dooley coached at schools were winning was expected. Those schools had won national championships in football.  So the Dawgs, through the luck of the draw, played the bottom of barrel this season. That may not be the fault of the Georgia Bulldogs. In fairness to them they also played and whipped a decent Vandy team. Talk about a world turned upside down. The reason I think Alabama will beat Georgia is that Alabama has had a much harder schedule.
