With a dominating win in a conference championship and just two losses before the Sugar Bowl, this Bulldogs team would have almost undoubtedly been one of the 12 teams to make the playoff had the system been in place.
After an embarrassing loss on the road in Knoxville, the Bulldogs rattled off six straight regular season wins and followed that streak up with a dominating preformance over Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl.
Combined with the fact that the two eventual teams that competed in this year’s national championship also had two losses, many wonder just how deep of a run the 2007 Bulldogs team could have made had they just been given a chance.
