Careful what you wish for. They will give you a better game than Bama would. Bama has a ton of problems right now with no end in sight.

True that.  Kelly has turned them around faster than most expected, I think, and they are a dangerous unpredictable team now.  The Vols beat them in BR, which now looks pretty special.

That game was dumb.  

All that tells me is Alabama has problems and is more evidence they suck on the road this year.

Nah, they're still a ho-hum team with a major scholarship/roster deficit.  If they go on to meet UGA in Atlanta then Georgia will thump them a la Tennessee.  

The rebuild is potentially ahead of schedule, though.  The best players on this team are true freshmen, which can be considered good news in the long run.  The two true freshmen tackles limited Will Anderson--potentially the #1 pick--to one sack and Dallas Turner,  a freshman All American last year and already considered a first rounder for 2024 to 1.5 sacks.  That's pretty good considering these kids were facing Joe Dirt from Eastside High School a year ago.  The whole OL should be back, in fact.  The freshman LB continues to play well and is a bright spot for the defense.  The freshman TE is starting to look pretty good too.  And lest the commentators fail to get the point across by mentioning it every 5 seconds...did you know that's Jason Taylor's kid?  *eyeroll*

LSU has always been an "emotional" team, with all the pros and cons that come with that.  I always wondered what the talent they pull in would look like if the players were more even-keel, disciplined, and focused on the "process" so to speak, rather than the outcome.  We'd have missed a lot of the highest highs, but perhaps won a few more close games in this series by avoiding the emotions that get them all jacked up on Mountain Dew.  That could be what Kelly is going to do in BR, though I suspect they won't be as entertaining to watch.

Just revisiting as the season closes....

UGA did thump us like I thought, but the game itself was better than I expected.  Either UGA is not as solid against the pass as they appeared, or LSU is that good, or some combination.  Still think the run game has got to improve, but next year's passing game stands to be really good.  Our little freshman line was not overwhelmed by UGA's front and both QBs shredded the Dawgs with a slew of receivers that will all be back.  QBs are both on board for now, though if Daniels wins the job again in the spring I expect Nussmeier to hit the portal.  Shame, I haven't felt this good about a backup QB in a long time.  Which you kinda need when a QB runs as much as Daniels does. 

Defense will probably remain a work in progress.  Special teams.....yikes, well, they can only get better, you'd think. 

Probably won't beat out Bama for the west again, but they currently seem headed in the right direction. 

UGA stands to make a 3rd straight appearance in ATL, I think.

UGA won the SEC East twice in a row, not thrice, if it matters, 5 out of the last 6.

They only won it twice in 5 attempts.

Obviously, CJ Shroud was shredding them as well for most of the game.
