2. Better buckle up your chin strap, Georgia: LSU looks like it is really, really good.

...

This is what I saw: I saw an LSU team that lost 10 juniors to the NFL Draft that is now better than it was at any point last season. Zach Mettenberger has calmed down and become a bona-fide SEC quarterback under new offensive coordinator Cam Cameron. If there is a better pair of wide receivers than Odell Beckham Jr., and Jarvis Landry, you're going to have to show it to me. And who goes deeper in really good tailbacks than LSU? I still think Georgia's Todd Gurley is the best running back in the country but LSU's Jeremy Hill (184 yards vs. Auburn) has to be in the conversation.

Nobody was really talking about LSU in the preseason because the conversation was dominated by Alabama and Johnny Football in the SEC West.

Bottom line: Saturday's game between No. 6 LSU and No. 9 Georgia in Athens is going to be some grown man football.

This article is obviously yet another example of blind praise from homerific LSU fans.

I told them this, especially Landry and OBJ being the best WR pair in the country. They called me a homer

He also said Gurley is better than Hill. Who cares.

Yeah, he's wrong about that. Hill is much better than Gurley.

True

But I meant who cares what he writes or where he went to college.

Because local sportswriters are accused (often correctly) of having homerific bias.

And discussing what people have to say is kinda what we do here.

I know you got your panties in a wad earlier today over the opinion of 5 NFL executives so I'm not really shocked at your response.

I didn't care what those NFL execs said earlier. I thought funny that some LSU tards were taking it as Mett is currently better than Murray.

And Barnhart is a clown who was fired from the AJC so again who cares what he says.

Looks more like he just went to work for CBS full time instead of working for a struggling media company like pretty much all newspapers are these days.

But hey -- way to deflect (again) from the actual content of the article.

Don't get so upset. Figured yall would be used to LSU being more talented than Georgia by now.

Sooooo.... a sportswriter writes an article re-affirming your beliefs that LSU is the better team.

This is groundbreaking stuff.

Not saying he is wrong, not saying he is right, but either way, so what? The game will be played Saturday and we will all find out then.

You realize this board is created to talk about games, right? I guess we should shut it down until Saturday.
