Most said their was no way Georgia Tech's triple option could work against the SEC defenses of Miss. St and Georgia. Ooopppps. Now it's LSU --- your basic Tenn, Auburn, and Georgia identical twin in the overhyped "SEC" fraternity. Only reason this line is -4 is because people see the LSU name and think the game will be close. Paul Johnson is building something special in Atlanta. Riding the Yellow Jackets boys, and this will be one of my biggest plays this bowl season. GL!!!
The biggest edge here is at head coach. LSU probably does have more talented players, but Paul Johnson is such a better coach than Les Miles it's not even fair. Paul Johnson without a doubt was the best coach this year and deserves coach of the year if there is such an award for college.
How he turned that GT team into a 9-3 winning machine I'll never get. That team shouldn't of even been .500 this year, but he got the job done with the triple option. I wonder if it'll become more popular in the BCS conferences now, especially with teams that have sub-par talent.

hno:
LSU has no motivation for this game at all. I was tempted to play LSU as I sat on this game until a few hours ago, but I ended up taking GT and the over in this game. Thinking back to what GT did to UGA was the killer for me. LSU has struggled against the run all year and even if they commit an extra body in the box, GT has still beaten those teams. I do think LSU can score on GT - maybe not quite the way UGA did, but the over looks good to me as well. Jordan Jefferson will start and he's looking to secure his spot going into next year.
