We already know LSU's offense is elite and capable of scoring 40+ on top 20 defenses. We've already done it multiple times this year. But how does UGA's defense stand up to an elite offense?

The truth is that we don't know because they haven't even played a good offense let alone an elite one like ours.

Bottom Line: UGA's defense has padded its stats against terrible offenses and is in for a rude awakening against LSU and Burrow. LSU's much maligned defense has played 3 top 25 offenses this year, and the best offense UGA's Defense has played is ranked 40th (which is ranked higher than UGA's shitty offense ).

Oh, and before the pups come whimpering in here, be prepared to tell me which offensive juggernaut your defense has played and stopped this year.

TL; DR: UGA's defense, much like your trophy case, isn't that impressive.

how does LSU's offense stand up to a top 5-10 defense?

hasn't happened yet so we don't know.

LSU will simply outscore Georgia. It will be over by halftime

In my opinion, Louisiana state university cannot lose.

Posts like this reek of the OP trying to convince himself and everyone else that LSU has already done enough this year and shouldn’t be required to have to work for the win in Atlanta.

Sad thing is if they win they’ll continue to believe that while ignoring the fact that it took them 8 years to get back there

What exactly does UGA do on defense to make you believe they can shut down LSU? I’m honestly curious.

This was literally the case with LSU vs Alabama, and Ga isn't Alabama.

This is going to get old quick. The cure is easy enough though, I'll ignore most of these threads.

Do your own homework. If you can’t watch Georgia play defense this year and see something special going on the. You should quit posting for a while

We averaged 44 ppg against top 10 scoring defenses this year.

I've literally never said we would win, or predicted a win. If forced to pick I would pick LSU to win.

You'll notice I"m not out here starting threads and saying we're going to beat arse. I was simply responding to teh OP. It's an undeniable fact we are the best defense you'll see this year. The same goes the other way and you're clearly teh best offense we'll see. Shoudl be a good matchup.

Oh, no. You misunderstand. My point is that LSU and Burrow are going to do exactly that: work your overrated defense over when we rout you.

I thought that part of my post was pretty clear actually.

UGA has a statistically better defense than auburn and auburn held LSU to 23. Not saying it’ll happen, but it is a possibility.

I’ve watched. Looks run of the mill, SEC, to me. My favorite part so far from your defense is when they allowed SC to score in overtime. Was very exciting.
