    Yep it's the offense that is losing this game not the defense

    I've got to give it to Burrow, he's really really good.

    So that's pretty much ball game. Georgia defense just couldn't overcome all the mistakes that their offense made and have worn down probably mentally as well as physically

    I think Alabama is in good shape for next year. Look out. LSUs offense is Burrow. Who knows about Clemson? They have to play someone next. Ohio State should be back. I like.our chances since our defense should be very seasoned.

    Looks like offense wins championships......

    Re: Cager.... without him Fromm is missing a major weapon and the first half he didn't have the 2nd guy Pickens either so the other guys dropped two long balls that could have been important at the time.

    Still..... Burrow and that LSU offense make me realize that a Fla-LSU rematch in Atlanta was probably not what I wanted to see.....

    No doubt in today's college football to be elite you'd better have a great QB, because you have to score points. How many teams are run first teams now days? Wisconsin, Georgia, who else? You need an excellent defense for sure, but that's not enough. Next year look at who will have the best returning QB's and that's who will be the favorites pre-season. Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields will be the top returning guys and I'll bet that ends up with Ohio State/Clemson being the top teams entering next season. QB will be a question mark for Georgia (Fromm reportedly leaving for NFL), Alabama, and OU.

    An slight hijack, my great-nephew Ben Harris who is a QB for Midwest City Oklahoma Carl Albert HS, just won his 3rd State Championship. He's a Jr, and has only lost 1 game in his HS career and won as I said 3 state championships. He has no offers for scholarships, and you can't find his name on Rivals for his class of 2021.

    Terry, I don't disagree about the quarterback, but I still think that the defense is the key. Look at Ohio State. Very good qb but.a.top 3 defense. Clemson.hasnt.played anyone but they have a top ranked defense. LSU very good qb, so so defense. Let's see if they win it all. Oklahoma high powered offense so so defense. Let's see how this works out.

    Ohio St. Clemson playing another unranked team is just not appealing.

    Can you imagine how.many undefeated teams there would be if they didn't play a ranked team all year?

    Well it's likely he'll either play Ohio State or LSU, I'd bet LSU after tonight not sure how LSU isn't #1. That was the #2 or is it #3 defense that LSU took apart. How many top 10 teams has LSU beaten this season, 2 top 5 teams. Their resume is much better than Ohio State, but Ohio State does pass the eye test, they are really good on both sides of the ball. Still to me LSU is #1, right now

    Dabo has a great team though, they have talent on both sides of the ball they will have a giant chip on their shoulder when they take the field vs either team.

    Georgia 's offense was just to inept. Dropped passes, bad passes, and mistakes. LSU was.going to score but the Georgia offense didn't contribute at all. Anyway, I put my money on Ohio State because of their defense. Maybe Clemson because of their defense but a.big question Mark because of their schedule.

    Fields has that big knee brace, we'll see how that affects his play
