This doesn’t move me the way it did in 2024 when we got our first #1 ranking in 18 years. Too much ball left and all that matters right now is getting to the playoffs. This team will be battle tested for sure.

Would you have rather lost the game or?

No, i would have preferred they drop Ohio St to 3rd in front of us. Would have been great for the team's focus

Yeah, not that we weren't gonna get everyone's best shot already this year, but the hunger is going to be ravenous, especially in road games.

They should play with a chip regardless. Otherwise, everything Sark says about "prove us right" and "be enamored with us" is meaningless.

The team needs to stay focused. Fans don't have to, though. Enjoy it.

Right on. Too many fans act like they have to be part of the team and "not get distracted"

The target on Texas’ back is always huge no matter the rankings and I am all for it.

Agree, but we do not handle no 1 well in any sport.

By this I mean UGA hasn’t been the top dog overall since 2022. Top dog in SEC, but they’ve got no more claim to best in the country right now than Texas, nor have they since 2022. 1st in the country is 1st in the country, and that hasn’t been the case for UGA since 2022

All fair points, but we haven’t been too dog since 2005 and we have yet to beat them since 2022 and until we do I still say they should be ranked higher than us. Not to mention they were already ranked above us prior to this improbable win.
