saying VT is better than UGA is just plain silly...

PLEASE try and give some reasoning for this...I could use the entertainment...

I think UGA>VT, so I'm a bit stumped why 2 respected posters would put some absurd things like

VT >>>> UGA

UGA >>> VT

Both are pretty close IMO.

VT > UGa.

I opened this thread expecting to see lots of $$$-making picks, and next thing I know I'm in a sporting events-esque piss-fest with some tlt mixed in for good measure. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Sagarin predictor has Virginia Tech 2.44 better and Sagarin rating has Virginia Tech 1.43 better. It seems obviously reasonably close, but perhaps I'm missing something.

(for example, I've paid no attention to injuries)

All you're missing is the SEC bias
