All this talk about Georgia’s Defense

I agree. They are talented, no doubt. But it's not hard to stop offenses that are not very efficient. I'm just ready for this game already.

Pretty sure I read somewhere that UGA faced 5 backup QB's as starters for the UGA game. To repeat: The aggies' Monds, in the rain, put up 275 yards through the air. JB usually has that in a quarter and a half.

Notre Dame #47 - Played their starter, 29/47 for 275 2tds 2 picks

Vandy #123 - played their starter, who cares

Murray St (couldn’t find don’t matter) - assume they played their starter, who cares

Arkansas St #44 - assume they played their starter, who cares

Tennessee #100 - Played their back-up, who cares

South Carolina #96 - lost to their starter, wow

Kentucky #80 - Played starter, who went 2-15 for 17 yards but had 17 carries for 99 yards

Florida #54 - Played Trask (better than Franks), 21-33, 257 2 tds 0 picks

Missouri #94 - Played their second and third string, who cares

Auburn #53 - played their starter, 30-50 for 245 1 touchdown, 13 carries for 42 yards and a touchdown

A&M #71 - played their starter, 25/42 275 yds 1 touchdowns, 9 carries -8 yards.

Georgia Tech #127 - who cares

Burrow is coming to eat on Saturday.

Sc threw for a total of 155 yards through 4 quarters plus 2 overtimes.



the whole "they've only played backups" thing is wildly overblown, as you graciously pointed out. The only 2 games that we really truly played a backup QB were UK and Mizz, neither of which would have mattered anyway.

Incredible. Of all those teams, only Arkansas State (located in mostly rural Craighead County, atop Crowley's Ridge) has anything resembling an offensive juggernaut!

Do the Dogs really bring anything worthwhile...to the table?

It was 21-0 entering the 4th quarter and AU hadn't done a damn thing all day. We started playing zone instead of man and let them dink and dunk the rest of the way. Not to mention they completely abandoned their run game. But you can take from statistics what you want I suppose.

Dude quit beating your chest on this as if it matters. Lsu was up more than that on bama and gave up late yards and points. Same for ole Miss. You act like those yards don't count. They do. Explain mond 275?

LSU beat the brakes off a team ga struggled with the week before.

the dogs will have to play a great game and the ball will have to bounce their way for them to win.

Fair. What do you say for the stats for all the QBs that faired pretty damn well against your staunch defense? Bad outing?

I assume you mean that Mond threw for as many yards as he did because the game was in hand. Well... the game definitely wasn't in hand at the time.

My take is that UGA will keep it close by limiting us to field goals and moving the ball against our defense. They will et timely sacks against us and may stop us short on the goal line.

However, if our defense creates turnovers and produces a number of three and outs like they're capable of, I think our offense will punch in a few touchdowns.

I think the first half ends 24-10, LSU. We stall in the 3rd on offense like we always do, but defense comes clutch.

Final score...31-17.
