I agree with you. Young teams play up and down just like they have. We’ll get the version that beat Bama so we’d better be ready. If we play them like we did Tennessee or Oregon, we’ll be fine.

They got embarrassed last week and will arrive pissed off. Score early and often to put them out of their misery or risk a Dawg fight.

The Tigers are looking to redeem themselves after an embarrassing, lackluster performance against aTM. Kelly will absolutely have them ready.

Redemption is one thing, thinking/praying you can win is another, playing against an opponent that is on a mission with focus plus scheme, is something lsu can’t/won’t/haven’t done for 60 minutes…GO DAWGS!

Iām sure the Dawgs are taking this game seriously. In the end it will be just like the vols game with Kirby Manballing the clock out.

We really SHOULD be able to RTDB in this bunch, but that QB is a baller.
Take away the run and make this dude nervous in the pocket. Jalen needs to ball out. I donāt want to have to depend on Chambliss to contain; I like the kid but he looks lost out there. Has he become a liability?

I respect that attitude that this is LSUās national championshipā¦exactly the way they should approach it.
On the flip side, I think the Dawgs are done sleepwalkingā¦all of our men executeā¦special teams/offense/defenseā¦the elite swagger returns this Sat in Atlanta

Agreed. That extra gear where we execute with ruthless efficiency hasn’t been reached yet. Not for every game, at least. That’ll be the determining factor as to whether or not we replace Bama at the top of the CFP food chain.

LSU will have to cash in on multiple turnovers AND one or two explosive/successful trick plays in order to win this one.
Possible? Yes. Probable? No.

Gotta admit, Iāve got 2005 feelings about this game. Thereās a team with something to prove and a team with national title hopes, and that game went the way of the team with something to prove.
Anyway, I hope the dawgs pull it off because itās been way too long since weāve been SEC champs.

I donāt think that you can beat this Georgia team without a qb who can consistently make plays from the pocket. I donāt know that they have that.

Are the Corn Dogs better than Tooth Nation? The Death Valley scoreboard says no. They got their pants pulled down in College Station on Saturday night by a team with literally nothing to play for.
If we arrive in Atlanta with the mentality of the Oregon, Tennessee, Florida (3 quarters), and Auburn games, we will win.

My 6-5, 275 Coon Ass cyclops golf buddy has been awful quiet this week. He’s usually brash, cocky & confident in his Bayou Bengals. He knows an ass whipping cometh….and so do I. It won’t even be close. Kirby has made mention too many times that THIS team wants a SEC title badly. Wants to separate itself from 2021 team. This one could be ugly!!

I expect this to get sporty. Try-hard MF’ers with nothing to lose vs. a team that’s spent the whole season on a pedestal and has everything to lose. Kelly’s players generally play hard for him. Hope we’re ready to hunt.

I think thatās been the underreported story of the 2022 season for UGA.
Despite Kirbyās platitudes, we are definitely the hunted. Everyone on our schedule sees ādefending national championsā and circles it during winter workouts.

Every time this year Iāve expected the dawgs to just open a can of whoop ass theyāve fucked around (hello mizzou and āwe got something to prove after the lackluster showing against Kent state!ā). So Iām not gonna say I expect the dawgs to open a can of whoop ass, especially after the very meh performances against Kentucky and tech but IF, IF, they did or even if did like they did against Auburn where they played āsloppyā ( by what they could have done anyways) and still cover a sizable spread, I wouldnāt be shocked

Their last 2 games they were pretty bad. Maybe especially Arkansas. 13 to 10 with K J Jefferson out? His absence made a difference.
I am always concerned before a big game and this one is no exception. But I think we have the better team and Daniel’s mobility may be down with his ankle issue.
Just looking at the facts realistically we should win comfortably.
