Id definitely take the over

It may my inner homer speaking, but I REALLY like us vs UGA.
Our offenses are nearly identical. But we've got better SP teams and a much better defense.
I just don't see this one being much of a struggle for us.

Big plays and turnovers will decide. Look for a slighlty higher score than TAMU last year.
LSU 31 - GA 24

FYI - I predicted last weeks score

You do realize these two contradict each other, right?
No, I do not realize that. Georgia can have a late TD that inflates their score, and we can win going away.
You might be misunderstanding what "win going away" means. It's a phrase from horse racing that refers to when a horse not only wins the race, but is pulling away and extending his lead at the end. So, if a team is going to "win going away", it means the other team is NOT going to narrow the gap at the end with a late TD.

Frome what I've seen, UGA has more issues on defense than LSU.
I like LSU by 10. Call it 31-21.

Over. It will hit 69.

38-27.

I don't know about "running up the score early" but our defense will play well over 4 quarters. Georgia may score first but LSU will have an answer offensively and as the game wears on we will/should score on more possessions than Georgia. Key will be us keeping them out of the end zone and vice versa. Special teams could be a major factor in the "shootout"/scoring - not just offense and defense. 41-35 LSU. I will take that. Sorry. It WILL be a shootout on the scoreboard.

Compared to recent seasons, thats a shootout.

I don't think it'll be a shootout. LSU will have success early and often against Georgia's lack of defense. I think our D will play really well for most or all of the game. The only risk if Georgia can tire out our D late in the game, which does seem to be an issue for us, but I think special teams blunders and/or turnovers will keep them from making it really close.

Im thinking o taking a first half under, 2nd half over

What you're saying is that Vegas suspects if the game was a pickem then more money would go on Georgia. A favorite is a favorite. I understand that as a fan it's hard to temper expectations on a game like this but you're all selling Georgia short. This is going to be a street fight. Both sides have talent across the board.
