Georgia - LSU comparisons by unit

How do we stack up against the Dawgs by unit? What positions are they playing new starters? I know their defense was full of NFL guys last year who left but the defense was not great.

Clemson scored 38 against UGA, and only 26 against NC State. USCe scored 30 against UGA, and only 27 against UNC. The Gamecocks only scored 35 against Vandy at home, just five more than at UGA. North Texas scored as many points against UGA as they did against Ohio U.
None of the teams UGA has played has a defense or a special teams the caliber of ours. And only Clemson's offense is anywhere near LSU's.
You might be surprised to learn that LSU is scoring more PPG than Clemson, 40.3 to 38.6.
And yes, Clemson has played more name opponents, but not necessarily better defenses. UGA's defense is 85th in points given up, NC State's is 42nd.
TCU is 62nd in points given up, Auburn is 51st.
Didn't bother with the cupcakes for either.

I don't think I have watched UGA more than the first half of the NT game. I might watch their USC game to get a better feel for it because I am a little worried about this one

So we prolly win by 17 right? Ok, that is what I thought.

I watched much of the North Texas game last weeek, and I've said this till I'm blue in the face that Georgia has some very issues on special teams.
They gave up a 99 yard kick-off return for a TD and a blocked punt for a TD against, yeah, you guessed it, NORTH TEXAS.
To have a chance on winning, Georgia needs to play good football on offense, defense, and special teams as well as minimize any miscues whatsoever.
Georgia is sixth in the nation in total offense. They really, really should not put their defense in bad situations or allow points on special teams and not make unforced errors.
LSU, right now, is the most complete team in the SEC.
