Kirby Smart pleads Georgia's case for College Football Playoff bid after losing SEC title game

For the first time in two years, the Georgia Bulldogs lost a football game Saturday.

The top-ranked, two-time defending national champions were upset in the SEC title game by No. 8 Alabama, creating chaos for the College Football Playoff committee.

Georgia was riding a 29-game winning streak entering Saturday afternoon, and its last loss came Dec. 4, 2021 in the SEC championship against Alabama.

But that loss didn’t keep the Bulldogs out of the 2021 College Football Playoff. And Georgia got its revenge by beating Alabama in that season’s national championship.

Georgia coach Kirby Smart says Saturday’s loss shouldn’t keep his Bulldogs out this year either. 

“[Committee executive director] Bill Hancock said it’s not the most deserving,” Smart said after the game. “Simply, it’s the best four teams. You’re gonna tell me somebody’s sitting in that committee room and doesn’t think that Georgia team is not one of the best four teams? I don’t know if you’re in the right profession. 

“It’s a really good football team. It’s a really talented football team. It’s a really balanced football team. They have to make that decision, but it’s the best four teams.”

Georgia scored a touchdown on its first possession of the game, but the Crimson Tide earned its seventh conference title in the last decade.

It’s rare a team has made the CFP without winning its conference. But it happened with Ohio State in 2016, Alabama in 2017 and the 2021 Georgia team.

No. 7 Texas remains in the mix with its Big 12 title. At the time of publication, No. 4 Florida State looks like it will finish 13-0 with an ACC title, which still might not even be enough. And who knows what happens if No. 2 Michigan is upset by No. 19 Iowa in the Big Ten championship?

The Bulldogs will find out their fate Sunday afternoon.

MSNBC historian pleads with audience: 'Vote as if your life depends on it – because it might’

MSNBC contributor and NBC News historian Michael Beschloss called to “vote like your life depends on it” during an appearance on “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart” during which he also told the host, “I don’t know” if the country will survive this. 

Capehart discussed President Biden meeting with Beschloss and other journalists and historians to discuss the “trends toward autocracy” worldwide and the threat of losing democracy in the country. Beschloss agreed with Biden that this could be “a battle for the soul of America” comparable to the Civil War and Nazi Germany.

“If we were living in 1940 you and I would have said, ‘There is a serious danger that America would not be a democracy because A. there are people from within who want to make this an authoritarian system. And B. the Nazi Germans, the Italians, the Japanese, were living in a world where fascism was on the march,’” Beschloss said. “What we all said to the president was, this, 2022, is like a moment like that.”

“And therefore, this midterm election, and the presidential election of 2024, they said it was always the most important election in history. It’s pretty close to it. I would say to our friends, who are watching us today, vote as if your life depends on it. Because it might,” he added.

Several Democrats and media pundits have invoked the mantra “vote like your life depends on it” for midterm and presidential elections. Former President Barack Obama similarly told young people to “vote like your life depends on it, because it does” last November to combat climate change.

Beschloss implied that the threat increased after the FBI raid against former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home based on Trump and the GOP’s response afterwards.

“What, you know, what is even worse than that? Kevin McCarthy, threatened—the possible next Speaker of the House if the Republicans win—threatened an attorney general, and said, ‘You better lay off,’ essentially, ‘You better lay off Trump, or else there’s going to be violence.’ When have we ever seen that before in American history? And even reports that Trump himself tried to send a message to Merrick Garland, that unless you get some kind of immunity, you’re going to have a civil war. That’s a threat. No one should make it, [especially not] an ex-president of all people,” Beschloss said.

“And your last answer is truly the most frightening thing that I’ve heard, or that we can even contemplate. Are we going to survive this?” Capehart asked.

“I don’t know,” Beschloss answered.
