We are now #5 after losing to Georgia and USC is now nipping at our heals. The committee needs to consider if Ohio State, Michigan or TCU or USC could have beaten Georgia on their home field? I say NO WAY! It sounds like teams are allowed to float through their schedule beating weak teams and are rewarded by making the playoffs. I guarantee that if Clemson was unbeaten they would be ahead of us even though they are have played a weak schedule all year long! Members on the committee are now just itching to move USC ahead of us! IMA the teams should be ranked by their POWER RANKING not by wins and losses. As you know, when the power ranking is used, each team is compared with each other as if playing on a neutral field. The Vols right now should be ranked no worse than #4 and possibly #2 based on our strength of schedule.
