Even great teams have ups and downs, looking awesome one week and rather pedestrian the next, but they have more solid/awesome games than the other kind.
Folks were sold on UGA after three games, I was cautious about that. Now folks have dumped on them. I think they have a good team that still will need a few breaks against good competition to win. I think we still have much to learn about the Top Ten. Last year at this point the top 5 included Iowa, PSU, and Oregon. Florida was at 10. They didn't finish there.
