You realize the season is longer than 4 games right?

You’d be wrong then. Stats are deceiving with a short sample size. This a full seasons worth of sample size.

UGA is holding teams to 65% of their season rushing average and 76% of their passing average, which are both elite numbers. In contrast, LSU holds teams to 83% of their rushing average and 92% of their passing.



Let's say this plays out.

Here's what the stats would look like:

LSU
Passing: 290
Rushing: 114
Total: 404

UGA:
Passing: 197
Rushing: 161
Total: 358

LSU averages 11.8 yards per point, so with 404 total yards, that translates to roughly 34 points.

UGA averages 13.5 yards per point, so with 358 total yards, that translates to roughly 26 points.

LSU wins 34-26.

I think what this shows is that UGA is going to have to get a big turnover or two.

shite, if you take out the OM and Vandy games LSU’s defense looks a lot batter. But that’s just as retarded as your post.

That is correct. LSU is still predicted to win, but that wasn’t the topic. The topic was UGA’s defense wasn’t as good as advertised and that is incorrect. Here’s the breakdown video if you’re curious. LINK

I don't think you'd find many UGA fans who would have issue with that projection. The problem comes from the morons saying LSU is going to drop 50 and UGA won't score more than 14.

That seems like a reasonable prediction if both teams play their normal game. UGA needs an unusual performance on offense or a few mistakes by LSU to win this game. LSU fans seem to think it’ll be a 3 score LSU win

I think it's a 34-17 type game.

You have to remember that most of UGA's offensive production is either injured or out of the game.

Have there been any reports on Swift? I feel like UGA needs swift to be 100%. They have to extend drives and shorten the game.

you're right. 42% of the schedule is small. But the basic point of all of this is that SOME UGA fans seem to think that UGA will dominate LSU defensively. But UGA has had passing d letdowns against 42% of its schedule and there were some bad QBs in there. Thats LSU strength.

Literally zero UGA fans on this forum have seriously said that we will dominate LSU defensively. Holding LSU in the mid-20s (something that Auburn did) is not some outrageous projection. It’ll take a hell of an effort but it’s not irrational to think our defense is capable of it if they play a great game and get a few breaks.

They do? I don’t think UGA fans predicting LSU to score triple what we normally give up is us dominating LSU.

I agree with this. And I didn't mean all UGA fans.

I think LSU wins because of UGA's offense and LSU's defense coming together.

Take UGA's worst 10 games (large enough for you?) they are outside of the top 50 in pass yards allowed. Thats a fact.

You honestly think a team that has been in the playoffs, the rose bowl, almost won another SECCg is somehow going to play dead. You are fricking stupid.

Who said UGA will play dead? No one thinks they're going to get crushed by an avalanche. The shite just happens and by the time you're buried it's too late.

You LSU folks sure are a nervous bunch. Who are you trying to convince?

Relax, LSU will win easily. UGA won't be any competition.
