Georgia football fans traveling to Red Stick this weekend expect to leave with their ears ringing and the their Dawgs victorious. The Georgia defensive front will determine the outcome.

The Georgia football team will swagger into LSU’s famed Death Valley Saturday night. There is no reason to think it will not walk away with its first in against a top 25 team.

No reason except LSU manhandled number 16 ranked Miami, beat number 21 ranked Auburn in Auburn, and shut down the vaunted Ole Miss areal circus in a lopsided win. Georgia on the other hand, has not played a top 25 team yet.

Other than that, everything points in the Dawgs favor.

Who are these Georgia Bulldogs

Actually, no one really knows how good, or how not so good, these 2018 Dawgs may be. The world will find out in a game that could break Georgia’s College Football Playoff hopes.

Georgia head football coach Kirby Smart has his own ideas. “As far as questions about our defense or our defensive line, they’ll be answered this week,” Smart told the press Monday. “They better knuckle up, because it’s going to be physical, hard-nosed football game.”
