How's your secondary?


It's above average but not great or elite like LSU's. Rambo leads the SEC in picks I believe, and we've got good guys at every spot. But we are definitely succeptible to give up a big passing play or two.

And you're exactly right, teams probably do try to run more on LSU than us, I'm sure teams gameplanned differently for us than LSU. All I'm saying is that in the exact same teams we both played, our rushing defense was superior pretty much across the board, sometimes by a very wide margin. Our run defense is legit.

Why are you trying to convince us that Georgia's defense is as good as LSU's? We all know that it is not.

In those games where teams ran on LSU, they weren't passing at all. We gave up around 230 yards per game total in those games. Plus, sometimes LSU gives up some yards because of how they are playing defense - hanging back some and trying to force mistakes.

Georgia is a good team. No one doubts that. We just believe that LSU is better. You are not going to change our minds.

12-0. It doesn't matter. Everyone should know this by now. Just LSU's year. This is a team of destiny and far superior in talent than anyone in the country, save bama, but still better than bama by a good margin. UGA will be lucky to put it in the endzone 1 time.

LSU - 2nd in SEC in Pass Eff.
LSU - 1st in SEC in Scoring Off.
LSU - 1st in SEC in YPCatch

Sell out to stop the run and we'll throw all over the UGA secondary. JJ is much improved. Awesome that oppponents haven't caught on yet.

LSU 38-13
