To be fair, road games are infinitely more challenging than neutral sites.
Especially night road games.

But a 27 game win streak with a shite ton of neutral sites and victories over borderline top 25 teams on the road doesn't leave a lot of opportunities remaining for ranked opponents.
The media is trying to invent a new stat.... in these 6 road games left unaddressed above, none were ranked.
No shite.

I agree with that (wouldn't say infinitely more challenging, but definitely more challenging), but if ESPN was trying to be fair they would have used final rankings. They were trying to leave the impression for the average viewer that Georgia wasn't thoroughly tested. And if you're going to analyze records/schedule by location, then neutral sites should be part of it to give a full picture.
