26-2 as a starter
63% career passer
47 TD passes to 12 INTs
148.6 career pass rating
You can make the case against Georgia without trashing a good player on Alabama.
Not trashing him. Just calling it like I see it. 
Don’t care what his record as a starter is. He wasn’t the primary reason his team had that record. 
He’s playing on an all-star team in a system that manufactures #’s even if said QB isn’t all that great. He reminds me of Tebow or Denard in that way. Tebow completed 67% the year he won the Heisman. Denard Robinson completed 68% his breakout sophomore year. Both of those guys SUCKED at throwing the football. And so does Jalen Hurts.

I'd vote Murray for the Heisman.  Running that well with those passing stats while going 12-1 with that defense is SICK.:PDT_Armataz_01_37:
Pains me to say it, but I’d vote for Dwayne Haskins. Some of the throws he’s made this year just made my jaw drop. Can’t remember a single throw Murray made that made me go WHOA like that. Haskins is a 1st round NFL draft pick and an NFL QB. Murray ain’t.
Haskins threw for 47 TDs and about 4,500 yards and basically carried that team on his back. Give him the Trophy.

It's not all resume, it's not all eye-test.  
Georgia probably is one of the 4 best teams.  They ALSO don't deserve to be in the playoff.  Both can be true (and are).
Georgia isn’t one of the best 4. They proved that tonight by losing to a team with a back-up QB that sucks at throwing the football. 
Georgia has a dumb coach and a poor front 7 that can’t stop the run. They aren’t one of the best 4 teams in my opinion. And any one saying they are as if it’s fact is just deluding themselves.

If I’m Bama the one team I don’t want to play is Ohio State.

Some of the throws that Haskins can make- there is just no defense for. They have the best passing offense in the nation. Not Oklahoma. OU has the best all-around offense bc of Murray’s ability as a runner- but no one can threaten the entire field and anywhere on it with their arm the way Haskins can.

If a game manager like Jake Fromm and those pedestrian Georgia receivers ate them up- they don’t want to see a 1st round NFL QB with a howitzer like Haskins and an OSU WR corps that just might be the deepest in the nation.

Of course.
Like the players themselves, I'd like to play a helmet program in the bowl game.  I'd like the Gators to be highly motivated by a sexy opponent.
I cringed when UW got stuck playing in the Cotton against Western Michigan a couple of years ago. Of course, I'd probably be happy about it this year, in hindsight.

I'm trying to find this in the Heisman's description, but not seeing it anywhere.  Could you help me?

Which of Hurts' throws last night were sucky?
UGA is 27th vs the run, OSU is 62nd.
Who is sharing their opinion as fact?
Are you frothing at the mouth again?

UGA should not be in any discussion, Sugar Bowl bound, could end up ranked 3rd or so with a win there.

They did have issues stopping the run this season.  Hurts is not at all a bad QB.

No,no they're not SEC fans so doesn't make it so either.Sorry can't close
Could you provide a list of teams you think would get up by 14 points on Alabama into the 3rd quarter?  That would be helpful.
When a 12 point underdawg loses by 7, I've never seen it described as such a crime, lol.

I agree, there's no way UGA is in the playoff.  But to see the backlash from even suggesting they may actually be one of the 4 best teams is interesting.

Well, when some at ESPN are calling for it, you expect backlash.  ESPN of course encourages such opinions so as to get attention.

When they just show the games, fine, but their "analysis" is irrelevant.

I have noted before that upsets happen in playoffs fairly often.  The opponents are usually good teams also, maybe not as good as the one they beat, but on that day they beat them.  Fine.  In any single elimination playoff, nobody gets a mulligan.

Lose and you get a consolation prize.  It still could be a decent season for a very young UGA team, and I think Smart is still figuring out how to coach.

No #1 seed has won the playoff, is that correct?
