Defense wins championships

Not when that defense is about to get lit the hell up come Saturday. LSU is a different animal on that side of the ball.

Good luck

Burrow throwing for less than 100 yards this game. No TDs and 4 picks. Finally we get tested against a good defense and we wilt away.

Whatever helps you sleep this week

In games against three common opponents, UGA has given up only 14 fewer points, 33 fewer yards, and has forced 3 less turnovers.

To recap, that's a little over 4 points per game, 11 yards per game, and 1 less turnover a game.

UGA is going to have to VASTLY outplay LSU's defense to have a shot. So far against common opponents, UGA has been marginally better.

Florida and Auburn were road games for Georgia. Those were home games for LSU.
A little more perspective to those stats.

Okay, so the one common opponent both teams played at home was A&M. LSU's defense vastly outplayed UGA's vs. A&M. Point is, LSU's defense isn't nearly as bad as people make it out to be. LSU's defense does not need to be great, it needs to be above average. UGA's defense has to be GREAT.

Yeah y’all have played some real offensive juggernauts this year

Poor UGA has no clue what's coming to Atlanta Saturday.

Every “great” defense we’ve played has said that. Their ruins are scattered in Burrow’s wake.
