I'm picking a loss for this one and the Iron Bowl (unless something major changes in Athens).

We've done either bleh (KSU) or awful (MSST) in hostile away environments and these will be the worst all year. Both stadiums will be the loudest they've been in a long time and our guys haven't shown the mental fortitude to play a full 60 minutes through that. It's difficult to underscore how absolutely frothing both environments will be, since they basically spend all year hating us the most.

Hoping for the best but covering my nuts.

I think a lot of AU folk with this mindset are totally ignoring UGA. They just got destroyed in their other rivalry game, if you remember.

This game will play out a lot like 2013 IMO, except they don't have Aaron Murray dropping back to pass. Which is nice, considering we don't have Ford and Lawson coming off the edge either.
