UGA basically has a five game schedule, which is not unusual of course.  The OOC slate is Tech and ... blech.  They once had UCLA scheduled but ...

At Tennessee
Florida
Texas
Ole Miss
Alabama

All those away games last year revert to Athens.  And they play Tech in the MB Dome in Atlanta which is a bit odd.

definitive?
IMO cbssports is ass.  Am I way off on that?  I've never been impressed with them.  

Sellers on USCe isn't the 3rd-best QB, much less the 3rd-best player overall.  It's a joke.

This is a bit amusing, to me, because "we" rank HCs on the basis of wins and losses almost without exception.  So, you could post just WPTC and go from there.

1.  Smart - The inevitable smart choice.  0.85
2.  Richt - Because his teams averaged ten wins a season.  074
3.  Dooley - Because he won quite a bit often with mediocre talent.  0.70
4.  Donnan - Because he's not last.  0.68
5.  Goff (Ray) - Well, he, um, didn't have much success.  0.57

Figures are winning percentage without the %.

1 - Pelini - winning % - a couple conference champ game losses
2 - Rhule - incomplete but won a bowl game
3 - Riley - worse winning % than Callahan, but didn't drop the handoff from Solich
4 - Callahan
5 - Frost - head shaker

Yes, a bit, but they usually correlate with winning percentage.

usually, some Buckeye fans might speak up

Osborne had a great winning percentage. rivaling Devaney, but couldn't beat Oklahoma and didn't win a national title until late.  Tom nearly left or was fired a few times in the 70's and 80's

Hard to imagine being at UGA and only winning 57% of your games.  Usually three games are pastries, at least four conference games are against lesser talented teams at worst.  7-5 is 58%, split your bowl games against weak opponents ... not very good at all.
