Who else is upset that the Georgia Bulldogs are the Preseason #1 ranked team?

Question

Shouldent it be a team with more power?

Answer 1

figgid..does that mean your cousin goes there

lmao

Answer 2

Who cares about preseason rankings? They are pointless. Its just a popularity contest. The only rankings that matter is the BCS.

Answer 3

Im not upset i hate usc

Answer 4

I know the preseason ranking is meaningless but I totally agree. They've got plenty of starters returning from an 11-2 team that finished second last year, and their running game as well as their passing game should be great. I will admit however they have a tough row to hoe with their brutal schedule in the rough and tumble SEC.

Answer 5

you shouldnt be upset. because thats just who people THINK should be #1. but its whos ranked #1 at the end of the season that is fact and what matters is fact.

Answer 6

LOL

"a team with more power..."

Answer 7

Only one number one rank team in the preseason has been ranked Number one at the end of the season in the BCS since the beginning of the BCS  That is USC in 2004 Not impossible but unlikely, They haven't even been picked by the SEC Media  to win the SEC

So I am not upset. If your team did not make it up their let them prove it on the field not in a preseason ranking.

Answer 8

Why are you upset that there ranked #1?

First of all they choke every year anyways. Second, is now they have a big target on their backs. They are way over-rated but that just means I get to laugh harder when they choke, and believe me they will choke as usual and then we get to hear the infinite excuses. The best thing is that they will act surprised when they lose 3 games. Like they havent done that before...

Answer 10

The problem with preseason rankings is that it gives an advantage to the "top ranked teams" in the national championship race.  Prior to Georgia or USC even holding a practice they are annoited as the teams to beat.  Now every other team must climb the ranks and hope Georgia or USC loses to have a chance at one of the two spots in the BCS Championship Game.  In my opinion under the current system no team should be ranked until the 6th week of the season, that way most teams have played a few conference games and a few non-conference games, and the voters have a good idea who is the best.  I say "under the current system" because the only true way to determine a true National Champion is through a playoff.

Answer 11

What does being Preseason #1 really mean.....NOTHING.  It's just a poll of "who finished last year well + have many returning players."  As last year played out, teams move up and down every week, so this isn't really a concern to me.

Answer 12

Well my sisters brothers uncles nieces fathers son goes there  

Answer 13

preseason means squat, they have usc there every yr and with their push sched its hard to overtake,ranking shouldnt be till 4 to 6 games in anyway, but hey money rules and out west is alot

Answer 14

Be honest with you. I wouldnt want to be ranked number 1 anytime during the season until the final week. Im telling you we will see 5 or more teams reaching number 1 this year with 4 or 5 falling the following week or more after achieveing number 1 ranking. If your team is ranked number 3 in the country, and lets say the number 1 and number 2 ranked teams have to play its final game in its conference championship game. Odds are one of these two will get knocked off putting your team in the national championship. I believe this is how

West Virginia gets in the championship game this year. Finish the regular season at 11-1 ranked third in the country. Number 1 Florida

and Number 2 Oklahoma plays for their conferenced title game and one of these two gets upset. USC unfortunately loses two games along with Ohio St and Georgia.

Answer 15

It doesn't mean c**p. I could care less if my team was ranked #1 in the preseason. Nothing means anything until the end of the year. I'm tired of hearing people complain about who's ranked where. Just shut up about it.

Answer 16

there overrated and no one is happy about it and blowhio state plays usc so that's one overrated team down the drain early in the season.

Answer 17

It doesn't bother me. Georgia plays a tough enough schedule this year, so if they aren't number 1, we will find out soon enough.

I am more upset they finished 2 at the end of last season. Everyone gives OSU grief about losing by 14 to LSU, but Georgia lost by 21 to Tennessee, which wasn't half the team LSU was. They also lost to a 6-6 team, and only managed to beat Vandy by 3. Their big wins were Hawaii, and Florida, neither of which I was all that impressed with.
