ATHENS —
The disparity between the haves and have-nots in college football is far greater than in the NFL. It’s more like comparing China (Power Five conference) and Macedonia (FCS) as economic powers.
It follows that the fact Georgia and Georgia Tech each are 2-0 at this point of the season really means nothing. Georgia has beaten Vanderbilt and Louisiana-Monroe, which according to one set of computer rankings are the Nos. 75 and 110 teams, respectively, in the country. Tech has beaten No. 147 Tulane and No. 197 Alcorn State. When Vanderbilt is the elite among four opponents, something is wrong.
