UT was 3-3 entering that game in 2005. Not even close to ranked:

Georgia was ranked, but then again that shows the uselessness of preseason rankings as they were 11th heading into the SCar game and ended 6-6. They were bad.

And I'm sure he meant home/road, thus not counting bowl games as they are neutral.

That was a great game. Carolina gave UGA all they could handle that year. Too bad Carolina fell short...

Georgia finished 2007 with a winning record and a Sugar Bowl win. They were pretty good that year. The poster you quoted was mentioning road games, and the 2007 Georgia game was in Athens.

Sorry I meant top 15. Just left out the 15. Want to say they were 12th

According to the scoreboard at the top of the screen they were 23 in the game we won in 2005.

so since this guy is apparently wrong... should we be higher?

Apparently he's right.

[MWard]

This guy's math is wrong, we beat more ranked teams on the road than 2. Miller, UGA was 0-1, but still ranked in the Top 25 when we played them last year.

I seriously hope that our "jacked-up fans" don't wave their "Cocky Clothes", as we're sure to not be featured in TV games if our fans are naked in the stands waving their clothes around.

[Jleo]

You can take Penn St. off the list.

[CockySpaniel]

ND,and Michigan in the -80s

[ElectricCock]

We have to play at 2 of the Top 3 on the list... Ouch. Also, Clemson does not run down the hill and then touch the rock it's the other way around. I'll chalk that up to "nobody REALLY pays attention to Clemson "

Last season, UGA was ranked 19th in the AP, and 22nd in the USA Today/Coaches polls prior to Boise St., but was dropped from the top 25 by both by our game.....

Dumbass Tre Battle...kept playing while concussed, didn't know what play was called, and we killed on a 4th and 10 post route because he wasn't in his zone. One of the worst moments of my life. I thought we had y'all dead to rights.

Wow, Kentucky was ranked 8th in my lifetime. Amazing.

That mistake is on your coaches, not the player, primarily!! I guess you leghumpers "gave" us another game because we all know that no one, but UF and Bama, can actually beat thUGA.
