Will LSU melt under the awe, splendor and prestige of playing in the Rose Bowl vs. UCLA?

UCLA Bruins have 20 starters returning including their senior QB. Really won't be any excuse for not beating Hawaii this weekend and getting a non-conference win.
LSU's a different matter from Hawaii, though.
Per the Los Angeles Times, here are their reasons to pick UCLA or LSU.
Sept. 4 at the Rose Bowl
Reasons to pick UCLA: The Tigers might as well be 100 years removed from the national championship they won 18 months ago. They didn’t geaux anywhere in 2020, finishing 5-5, and coach Ed Orgeron remains under fire for his handling of a sexual misconduct scandal involving a few players. UCLA also possesses the sort of depth and veteran savvy needed to notch its most attention-grabbing nonconference victory since whomping seventh-ranked Texas 34-12 in 2010.
Reasons to pick LSU: It’s still LSU. The Tigers routinely win most battles on the offensive and defensive lines and feature more talent than a Cirque du Soleil troupe, with cornerbacks Derek Stingley Jr. and Eli Ricks selected as Walter Camp preseason All-Americans. Plus, there’s the revenge factor: When Orgeron was USC’s interim coach in 2013, a 35-14 loss to UCLA factored heavily into his not getting the permanent job that went to Steve Sarkisian.
My Pick: L...S...U, in a tight game.

I bet this cheesedick was so proud of himself for using “geaux” in an article

I went to the Texas/UCLA game at the rose bowl about ten years ago. Love the stadium but it was the worst atmosphere I have ever seen. The student section was like 30% full

LSU should feel at home in California.

No. LSU will win.
You should be more worried about Georgia crapping their pants under the awe & splendor rather than trolling LSU.

Have you been to the Rose Bowl? The Rose Bowl is a dump of a stadium that looks like a run down Texas HS stadium.

How does UGA handle that huge spot that's on them every year?

LSU will destroy UCLA. Not because they are really good, but UCLA is very bad.

Uhhh, UGA's 2-0 in the Rose Bowl Game. We're plenty used to the awe & splendor. We are Awe & Splendor!
