jrich960608	2	Without a doubt, Georgia is playing like the #1 team in the country. The biggest weakness that can be pointed out is schedule, but if anyone knows anything about football, you can tell when a team has it clicking on all cylinders. Oklahoma did give a lot of gifts to Georgia, but Georgia capitalized and still showed no signs of slowing down. UGA boasts the #1 scoring offense, and the #17th scoring defense in the country. Their first big test will be against an Alabama team that seems to have figured out some of its issues.

UGA will get its first test sooner than Miami in Alabama, however, and with a win over Alabama I think UGA will move up. Even up to No. 1 if Texas continues to flounder on offense.

Tornadohunter24	3	[4-0, 2-0 SEC] (+4) | SOR: #8 | Notable Results: Made Mateer forget how to hold a football (investigation pending) | And now, we come to a team that has played like the most dominant team in the nation, but simply lacks the resume to currently challenge the 2 in front of them just yet. The (Georgia) Bulldogs [we'll get to the other one in the SEC later, don't you worry] have pretty much been able to pick the scoreline in their first 4 games, and while none of those opponents (barring an Oklahoma squad that is absolutely floundering) have really had the talent to match up in any respect, it's still quite the feat seeing just how oppressive uGA has been on both sides of the ball. One has to wonder, though, if the saying "them dawgs is hell, don't they?" has a more sinister meaning behind the dark force that has taught Mateer how to "throw" the football...
Versigot	3	Beating John Mateer isn't impressive but the way they did it was impressive.

douchebagjack	8	Best 3 Wins: Oklahoma, Arkansas, Western Kentucky Georgia has probably been the least controversial team in this entire top 10. They're just really fucking good. 41-13 against Oklahoma and 45-17 against Arkansas, with the defense absolutely suffocating the run game. Oklahoma got 17 rushing yards against them. 17. Gunner Stockton doesn't need to throw for 400 yards when Georgia can just run the ball down your throat and let the defense ruin your afternoon.

T-Thugs	14	Georgia is 4-0 with dominant wins over Oklahoma (2-2) and Arkansas (2-2). I think this is probably one of the best teams in the country. They'll have a great chance to move up in a couple weeks when they play Alabama.

Yelich04	2	^1 (I think Georgia is actually the best team in the nation, but they haven't played anyone near Ohio State or Tennessee's level to warrant me ranking them above Texas. But they look damn good.)
_THE__BOULDER_	3	Georgia was spotted 14 points by Oklahoma in this game, with Mateer's fumble for an 85 yard touchdown return going to go down as one of the blunders of the season, and another fumble by Oklahoma 2 drives later leading to a short-field touchdown as well. Georgia's defense did well to help create these opportunities, but a lot of it also comes down to the ineptitude of Oklahoma's offense. In the second half, UGA had a bit more trouble scoring, only putting up 13 points, and I don't think this can be attributed entirely to taking their foot off the gas as the Oklahoma defense did come away with both an interception and a fumble recovery, indicating that they were playing better in the second half than the first. That being said, UGA was able to get some good chunk plays in the first half and moved the ball well. UGA seems to be firing on all cylinders though, with 2 conference wins under their belt. I have moved UGA up from 4 to 3 this week, but they really have only played bottom tier SEC teams, so this could change back after other teams start to get into the bulk of their schedules. UGA does play a Vandy team that just lost to Auburn, and they play in Athens, so I don't think it will be too much trouble for UGA until they play Alabama in 2 weeks.
