Those numbers are impressive indeed. LSU held three of the top 5 rushers in the NCAA TO <100 yds- Lamichael James, Trent Richardson, and the dude from Western KY.

the UGA defense is not even in the same universe; however, with all the bulletin board material they've provided, they may rank #1 in dumbest unit.

In regards to what you posted, wouldnt' that just mean that we have a good knack for getting to the QB?


I never said they didn't but attributing sacks to rush defense is stupid. Yes, I know that is how it is done in the NCAA but it makes no sense and as such it makes your rushing defense numbers seem a little better than they actually are.

TEAM/OPPENENT DIV 1 RUSHING RANK
Boise ST #53
South Cackalacky #25
Ole Piss #84
Misses State #40
Tenn #116
Vandy #42
Florida #73
New Mexican State #89
Auburned #35
UKanDoit #88
GTech #3 (against that stout ACC)

LSU #17


Just don't really see amazing stuff here to justify putting UGA's run D on a pedestal. Decent maybe but nothing I'd be bragging about. GT plays a lot of crap schools with that high school offense.

Don't expect to get any many reasonable responses here. Anyone with eyes and a brain can see that Ga. is a team growing in confidence and skill. On both sides of the ball, I expect the Bulldogs to give the Tigers all they can handle.

to a good game.

And an LSU win of course.
