If they got to play them in Georgia again? Probably a PK. Boise -8.5 if you had to go up to the blue turf.

Depends on where, but I have no idea since I don't bet sports and am not good at analyzing spreads. I have no idea what the spread was for their week 1 game either. (OK I guess just refer to iggy's post.) People say Georgia has improved or is on a winning streak, but they played their 2 toughest opponents in weeks 1 and 2, and nobody really close since. I don't expect the CCG to be close.

Edit: not saying UGA would be favored, but the line wouldn't reflect a one-sided game. Yeah, they got outplayed, but it probably wouldn't be so lopsided if they played again. My larger point is that they have a great defense and a good offense, which should lead to a better than 1/6 chance. I'm not saying Vegas is wrong. That was just my initial reaction.

Hard to say. Georgia had 2 new starters and a position change on the Oline, matched up against Boise's top 5 Dline. That could go better in a rematch. Georgia's defense has not played a quarterback of Moore's caliber since then. Closest was Bray, who remarkably continues to be a complete mystery. Sure seemed like Moore had a huge edge over them. Oh, and his best Dutch receivers are no longer suspended.

Does anyone else feel like they made a decision to call fewer holding penalties this year across the board? I just feel like they've been calling it way less this year than in the past.

Based on absolutley nothing I'm going to agree with you, I don't remember seeing a ton of holds called this year.

LSU are playing Georgia, not Georgia Southern.

LSU are clearly the best in the country right now but the hyperbole on this forum is ridiculous. Georgia are a top team with some future NFL players - just run good alone means they win a game or two out of 10.

I mean think of the west coast, LA doesn't have a real stadium and even if they did nobody would show up. The only good stadium I can think of is in Seattle and those dirty hippies don't give a ****. Oh yeah the Cardinals stadium is super nice but nobody would go if it was there either.

So yeah, LOL Pac 10. And conference championships. Jesus, think how much better round 1 of a playoff would be than this garbage.
