I'm confident yall will be better than the Troy game. I'm not confident you'll keep it within single digits against us.

So you’re expecting a comfortable win ? Nothing wrong with having confidence because UGA is legit.Im just expecting a more competitive game based on LSUs defensive improvement.And of course any type of passing game could make it real interesting

They have been tough there against us for awhile now. We have been lucky to get out of there with a win a couple of times and I would bet it will be another war this year. I won't post the series record there between the two of us since we are being nice today.

Not really, a stadium can't win a game by itself. Alabama has had a lot of great teams and got a few lucky breaks.

2008 is a perfect example. Alabama won the game in OT but 2008 Alabama was 17 or 20 points better than 2008 LSU easily.

I expect a double digit win. Not sure the definition of comfortable. We could be up by 7 with 3 minutes left and kick a FG to ice it. Not super comfortable but a double digit win. I just don't don't see this LSU team staying within 10 of us.

If we come into that game with 2-3 losses already (not impossible) then the crowd will be dead and UGA will probably win fairly comfortably a la 2008.

If we come in with 1 or 0 losses Gameday could be there and it will probably be a great crowd and in that case it will be tight, still would give UGA the advantage but 1 score game, 60-40 UGA wins.

Most probably don’t but I wouldn’t expect the line to be north of 7,unless LSU shits the bed right out of the gate.

Forgive my ignorance here bro but how is it that you have seen this LSU team when none of the rest of us have? I also know they have slipped a bit and have a moron for a coach but they will have an elite defense and enough offensive talent to make it interesting. You are talking about them like they are Ole Miss or something. Is Georgia unleashing a secret weapon we don't know about or are you generally this cocky? Don't underestimate a coach like O because when I was a student in 1999 I watched Mike Dubose win the SEC with less talent than what will be on this LSU team.

You may show up and beat them by three scores and take a mercy knee with three minutes left. Ed Orgeron is their head coach so it wouldn't surprise me. On the other hand they may just end up being your toughest regular season game and send you home with a big L.

I feel pretty damn good about my team's chances of being the best football team in America but I wouldn't bet the farm right now on us winning that game even with the streak. I have saw us go there with a superior team on paper and film and have to have a few lucky bounces go our way to get out of there with a win.

LSU is better at beating Alabama in BDS than in death valley.

I agree.
I think we win by at least 10.

Extremely tough environment, especially for big games.

I think LSU gets it done against either Bama or UGA this year.

Count me as not worried about this game and what they did against Mississippi State in 2012 doesn't really matter to me in that regard


it’s probably one of the two toughest games on Georgia’s schedule

That's an awesome 4 week stretch for LSU fans (assuming the team hasn't fallen off a cliff). Georgia, Mississippi State and Alabama all at home in 3 straight games.
