Like I pointed out in an earlier post, Georgia still has a very small chance at a NC shot. If USC loses to Oregon State and Georgia beats LSU in the SEC CG, there would be no other team around with a one loss record. Georgia could end up playing in New Orleans against Oklahoma by virtue of a quality win over LSU which would push Georgia in front of Texas, Michigan and Ohio State. Georgia is the current defending SEC Champ and the defending Sugar Bowl Champ as well. It would be ironic, but check the numbers...
Chip, I don't think that Georgia can mathematically get to #2... check out the following: Michigan --- 10.25 Georgia --- 15.06 Michigan's schedule rank (based on the SOS) is .52, while Georgia's is 1.28. So even beating LSU, and getting some fraction of a point (depending upon how far LSU drops) wouldn't be enough to catch Michigan. But maybe I'm wrong... I sure don't claim to understand it all, but it would seem to be too much of a gap to close out without Michigan losing (and they're out of games). I guess if a bunch of Michigan's opponents (and their opponents) lost it would weaken their schedule rank, but enough to overcome almost 5 points?
