    Miami Hurricanes, 1987

    We'll possibly have our shot at 5 vs Georgia.

    The playoff wins won't count but the SEC CG would.

    I thought we did it back in 2011. Oregon, Bama, Ark, Georgia. I think there might have even been one more. I know our OOC schedule that year was ridiculous. I think all but just a couple of teams we played were ranked and of those, 4 or 5 were top 10.

    If we could have just sealed the deal, then they would have a great argument for being the best team in NCAA history.

    Oregon, Alabama and Arkansas were all top 5 teams and I do believe we are the only team ever to do that.

    I need to research the Georgia game. Maybe they don't count the CCGs.

    UPDATE: Georgia was ranked #12 in the AP when we faced them in 2011.

    Except for Bama, we won them all by double digits too.

    Not with Jordan Jefferson at QB. I cringe at even writing that name.
