re: Herbstreit: UGA should be #3

If the playoff is objectively attempting to determine who the best team is, then UGA cannot be in, as they have already proven they are not better than Alabama, who will be the #1 seed.

Picking the Top 4 should be about picking the Top 4. It should have nothing to do with who's already played who.

I also don't see why UGA deserves to be punished for having to play Bama (and nearly winning) while OU gets to play 4-loss Texas. If UGA and OU switched opponents, the outcomes (Bama win, Texas loss) would be the same. Arguably I think UGA would look better in both.

If you're looking at 11-1 UGA, OU, and OSU...UGA has the best resume on the hardest strength of schedule.

If the playoff is about picking the best 4, it's
1. Bama
2. Clemson
3. Notre Dame
4. UGA
