    Really suprised by this one.
    I was sort of looking forward to LSU in the underdog role
    a la Tennesse and Florida.

    Most expected the line to be at 3-4...Home teams are automatically given 3 by Vegas, which means that honestly, on a neutral field, they're giving Jawja one...

    Either way, we're about to rise up and hand them a BEATDOWN, trust me...

    We might be favored to win, but most sports writers are picking UGA to win.....so IMO, we are the underdogs!!!!!

    Why wouldn't LSU be favored? More talent and at home...

    Georgia's the sexy pick, and it's a safe one...But, we know what time it is...

    They picked 'Zona to beat us so what did you expect?

    I was just going to post the same thing. Home usually gets 3 so Georgia is really favored by 1. Georgia is ranked higher and the defending SEC Champs. LSU is definitely the underdog.

    Technically, LSU is favored...

    Home field advantge is in favor of LSU but Georgia is used to playing in front of huge crowds.

    But, you have got to be kidding about the talent issue.

    Georgia is loaded with talent and speed.

    Both teams have great coaching staffs.

    Simply put, this is a matchup of two legitimate top 10 teams.

    Either team is quite capable of sticking it to the other when mistakes are made.

    Both teams are quite aware that if they don't put in their very best effort, they can and probably will get beat. And that very much includes special team play.

    I'm picking Georgia to win by 7 points, but that, in reality, is only a one play swing.

    Our special teams play was horrible this last week. We had better improve that or it will be a looooong game.
