[emoji91] 1 LSU vs 5 GEORGIA [emoji91]

LSU and Georgia have faced each other at the end of the last 5 or 6 seasons almost nonstop. The only thing keeping this from turning into a huge rivalry is that Georgia never wins. The Bulldogs have had an abundance of riches in the talent since Coach Cane left for Miami, they just havent been able to get past LSU. This year LSU's offense should be scary good for the Tigers so Georgia fans better be careful with the trash talk because it could get ugly. New QB and RB for Georgia this year as well, not the matchup you want for your first start. I think LSU wins comfortably.

Pre: LSU 45 UGA 27

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2034-2035

It felt like I hadn't played in awhile and it showed in the 1st quarter. Georgia got 3 on their opening drive and we threw a pick on our 1st drive. Georgia would get a td later in the quarter. 1st quarter ended 10-0, LSU. 2nd quarter our offense got going and the defense got a pick 6. Halftime score was 21-17, LSU, I think. 2nd half the offense stayed hot but the defense was giving up too many big plays. Georgia's rb had a couple big runs, thanks to missed tackles and my cb's got lost in coverage a few times. LSU beats Georgia 55-35.

Georgia is coming off of a tough loss to LSU. They heard the hype all off-season about how LSU basically owned them and once the second quarter hit it was deja vu. The Bulldogs cant afford to dwell on that loss as tough as that sounds because they have another team this week who can put up the same amount of points. South Carolina is one of my sleeper picks for the year. They have everything and could realistically sneak into the National Championship if injuries or upsets dont get them. This one will be in Athens so South Carolina will have to win in that tough environment, but getting this first big win would give them alot of momentum and confidence heading into this tough SEC schedule.

- Huge opener last week between UGA and LSU in which LSU started slow but lived up to the hype in the final 3 qtrs. The final was 55-35 as the Tigers dominated their opener. This week will be loaded with great matchups, LSU will face Miami next w

- Minnesota is loaded and finally has some guys from that 33' class getting into big roles. Miami wont have any room for mistakes in this one, upset alert

🟢 24 FLORIDA (0-0) vs 7 TEXAS A&M (0-0)
- The Aggies showed potential last season but struggled with consistency, they are expected to be really good this year. UF at home will be tough

🟢 14 TENNESSEE (0-0) vs 5 OKLAHOMA (0-0)
- OU is loaded like always but they have underachieved year after year under this staff. Tennessee is at home for this one, could be an upset

Before 4th just be realistic if youre down 14+

LSU opened the season as the #1 team in the country and after seeing every team play that spot is correct. LSU had the best showing out of every ranked team and they did it against one of the top programs in the nation. This offense has the potential to be the best that Arch has ever put together. Miami is a team that always gives LSU fits but after that season opener and what we saw from Miami against Minnesota, I dont think this offense can keep up with LSU. This Miami defense is not the same defense from a year ago and the DC for Miami will have to be creative in slowing LSU's passing attack down. Cook could potentially be a Heisman candidate with a big game this week. In the end I think Miami will keep it close because this is a rivalry game but LSU is already in midseason form.

[emoji327] RECAP

- Alot of huge upsets last week particularly in the top 10. #3 Miami gets blown out by Minnesota 59-21, #4 Ohio State the defending champs get blown out by Air Force 38-10, #5 Oklahoma gets blown out by Tennessee, #6 South Carolina loses their season opener to Georgia, #7 Texas A&M loses to UF.. Needless to say the top 25 is already in shambles but thats college football


🟢 15 TEXAS A&M (0-1) vs 7 TENNESSEE (1-0)
- A&M still has a ton of talent and potential despite their upset to Florida. Tennessee is a slept on program on the rise and wants to make a statement

🟢 6 ALABAMA (1-0) vs 20 FLORIDA (1-0)
- Florida seems to be an underrated team at 20 but they have their chance to prove that. Alabama lost some key talent last year, I like UF in this one

🟢 25 MISSISSIPPI ST (2-0) vs 13 AUBURN (1-0)
- Mark Richt has Mississippi St with their first 2-0 start in years. He has alot of talent to work with this year and Auburn will be the first real test

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2034-2035



Good win Arch.. You did your thing but Im pissed.. I got robbed man smfh.. 24-17 Arch kills me on a drive, my DBs cant stop anything but his team is stacked so I deal with it, but they get in the redzone and after all the plays his DBs made on my WRs my CB does that bs where he stops his whole body to make sure he doesn't accidentally touch the ball.. Im like whatever, just keep playing.. 24-24 in the 4th on the next drive Im trying to answer, 3rd and long I have a guy wide open crossing the field with a 12 yd cushion in the gap of the zone, its about to be 30-50 yds once he catches it, and I throw it 10 yds behind him and they make him do a full 360 trying to get back.. Arch gets down and goes for it on 4th and gives it back, smart play I just guess right.. its like a minute left and I hand it to my speed back, catch Arch off guard and bounce it outside, they go back to making me hurdle out of no where.. next play another hurdle out of no where.. It took everything in me not throw my controller at the wall

Aight Im done, I had to vent bc Im pissed.. Arch you cooked me, Im not saying you didnt or even that I wouldve won bc my CBs suck now, but they were doing too much man.. I just dealt with all that bs last week when Minnesota was cheating me and scored 60.. Im not gone make it through the season

[JEJunior]

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2034-2035

I had like 50 yds in the second half to Arch 200+... I hate this game with everything in me

[JEJunior]

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2034-2035

Anyways this is the story of the actual game

That sorry mf at corner is the weakest CB Ive ever seen, had Glover looking like Megatron.. he got cooked the whole second half, this is why we lost

Im starting my freshman the rest of the year smfh
