This is a solid thought for message boards.

If we beat Arky, we need to approach the UGA game like it's just for fun and still win it.

OP is right, if we get up by a couple TDs it's time to put some people on the bench to not risk injury.

Everyone knows Miles will be extra fired up to play the seccg. No worries.

Not what he is saying, he seems to think the SECCG is a meaningless game so don't play them at all to avoid possible injuries.

I don't think anyone would disagree that we should minimize the risk of injury if we have the SECG well in hand.

This isn't the NFL. Play to win. You never know what the voters will do and I'm not trusting the opinion of some self appointed BCS guru. We have a month to rest up.

I agree with you 100%, if the game is in hand to pull starters much like we have in a few blow out games this year. Plus the playing time of younger players in a SECCG would reap huge dividends in coming years.

UGA has won 10 straight and it's essentially a home game for them. I'm not so sure you can count on this game being a cakewalk.

True, I couldn't agree more with you. I was just replying to this mentality of not playing starters to avoid injury. In the event, however unlikely we should blowout UGA, then pull starters.

This is literally the stupidest fricking thing I have ever read. Not just on the Rant, but in life. I appreciate you allowing me to start my morning with the reminder that LSU fans are some of the stupidest motherfrickers on Earth.

Just win baby. I would not want to risk losing out on a chance for the title game. I couldn't care less what all the experts say.

Nothing could be better than....

1. 14-0
2. SEC Champs
3. BCS Champs
4. Beating Bama twice

We get a month's rest before the 'ship, why the frick would we want to rest our players. This is not week 17 of the NFL, we have a championship game to play against a team that we absolutely despise (think 2004, 2005 and 2008 - all complete beatdowns). I want us to skull drag those frickers all across the field and humiliate Mike Richt. SEC championships mean a lot to SEC schools.

Georgia is the ones that need to be worried about getting hurt, not us.

I don't feel like looking up this guy's post history, but surely he's joking, right? RIGHT?!

Before we even talk about the SEC Championship, we need to worry about the Pigs and beat their asses.
