    Yeah Georgia's lack of offense has killed them ,lsu are the real deal though.
    It was pretty evident if it you didn't believe it already about how good this offense is.
    The most points given up all season during regular time by the Bulldogs was 17 points. They gave up 37 to LSU.
    This offense is pretty much unstoppable. On top of that their defense has been improving all season long and look pretty good right now.
    I can't see them being stopped by anybody.

    You have to love Army/Navy game stats. 3 completions from 6 pass attempts and a guy runs for 305 yards.

    No fanfare for the playoffs?

    Peach Bowl about to start now. I fancy LSU and Ohio State to progress tonight.

    Cotton Bowl was a decent enough watch. High hopes for this upcoming one.

    Huge Hype around LSU AND Joe in particular on ESPN.... You would think Oklahoma have zero chance. I dunno.... LSU justifiable favourites bit a lot of experience and hurt around they Sooners organisation over recent years, there might be a surprise in store.

    Over/Under of 76 and LSU favoured by 14. Here's hoping the former is hit, and the latter is not. Would like it to be a close one!

    Is there no ‘out of bounds’ rule for receivers in college? Was an unbelievable play anyway.

    I know the commentary keeps going on about all the injuries on Oklahoma defense, but christ their secondary is hopeless.

    Amazing throw though

    Horrible spectacle though, the gulf in class is just too much. This is why there shouldn't be an 8 or 16 team playoff. There'll be too many blowouts.

    Huge difference in standards alright. There does be bitching in media about favouritism towards the Sec compared to the other organisations {big 10 etc) in the rankings, but the likes of today would suggest there could be 3 SEC teams in the top 4 - Alabama might be beaten today, but wouldn't concede 50 by HT.
