Finebaum Critiques CFP Rankings for Georgia
News summary

The latest College Football Playoff rankings have placed Georgia at No. 10, sparking significant backlash, particularly from ESPN's Paul Finebaum, who criticized the selection committee for their perceived bias against the Bulldogs. Finebaum emphasized that Georgia's victories over ranked teams like Texas and Tennessee should bolster their ranking, questioning the committee's logic in ranking teams like Indiana and Penn State higher despite their weaker schedules. CFP committee chair Warde Manuel defended the ranking, citing Georgia's two losses to top-25 teams as a key factor in their placement. The Bulldogs' upcoming games against UMass and Georgia Tech will be crucial for their playoff hopes, as another loss could end their postseason aspirations. The debate highlights ongoing tensions over how the committee evaluates teams based on wins, losses, and overall strength of schedule.
