How much credence are do you think the voters are giving Georgia's victory against an out of place Hawaii...?

Question

... when giving them the number one ranking?

Not saying that they won't prove to be the best team in the country, they just might. Just wondering.

Answer 1

It is not because they beat Hawaii, it is because they did very well in the SEC in 07 and only lost 3 starters to graduation last year and the entire offense is returning.

Answer 2

I do believe that Georgia is going to be one of the best teams this year, but i don't think they should be ranked in first place. I think that the defending national champ should always be ranked #1. but things don't always go the way we think they should or should not. Georgia will not be ranked #1 for long they  have a very tough schedule this year.

And the sugar bowl victory over Hawaii isn't why they are ranked at #1.It is because they have alot of talent and their players are very young. And of course, because they play in the SEC.

Answer 3

Georgia's number 1, because they were hot at the end of the season last year. Personally I don't think rankings should come out until the middle of the season when everyone knows who's who. A couple weeks into the season and Georgia will be low in the top 25 or not in at all.
