UGA allows 40 less yards on the ground per game than both Auburn and Florida.

UGA allows 20 yards less through the air than Auburn while about equal to Florida (though UGA averages 5 more pass attempts per game than Florida, because teams can't run on us)

You'll be going up against the #2 defense in the country. Not #9. Not #13. #2.

It's going to be a good game. I would be shocked if the spread is as wide as you predict. Until Kirby went soft zone in the 4q last night, the defense was putting on a defensive clinic for a national audience.

You don’t really face offenses like Alabama or LSU though..

Whereas LSU has faced some pretty defenses

In a dome, LSU should have success

I really can’t wait for this game. All year long we hear how LSU offense hasn’t been tested. They told us burrow couldn’t do it against Texas. They told us Florida d line would murder us. They said auburn would be a tough test and the field was rough for that game. They said we wouldn’t beat Alabama at Alabama.

This is the most efficient and balanced offense I have ever seen in my entire life. And the coaches say they are only just getting started. It’s such a joy to watch LSU.

That cushion of the first three quarters isn´t going to work against LSU. They will methodically march down the field, with the odd breakaway.

Everybody has had 8 to 15 yard slant success against UGA. Everybody. What do you think this country´s best college QB is going to do?

I trust the kirbster will mix it up and befuddle for awhile, but I don´t see our O doing what´s needed (score a shite ton of points).

Point spread in ATL? LSU - 8

And it's been well established that ranking is based off beating offenses ranked 40th and lower.

UGA hasn't played an offense anywhere near what Burrow and LSU bring to table and we've played three defenses comparable to yours.

Your defense isn't elite, it's just played a bunch of nobodies. Big difference there.

How much do the auburn and florida numbers drop when you take out the 500 yards LSU put on them? Bet they are pretty close to what uga gives up.

Wouldn't even be our lowest output of the year.
