Something in common: UGA, Tech likely to beat SEC opponents

The headlines will say, "No. 18 Georgia upsets No. 4 LSU."

Except it won't be an upset, no matter what AP poll says. (Las Vegas says it better, establishing the Bulldogs as a three-point favorite.)

LSU is 0-2 against Mark Richt, who happens to be 9-1 against the SEC West in the past four seasons. The Tigers are last in SEC offense and haven't looked like a No. 4 team in any game.

If the Dawgs can adjust to the sun after three straight night games, they should be fine.

LSU's closest scare came against MIssissippi State, which greets Georgia Tech. MSU is adjusting well to first-year coach Dan Mullen, who would rather throw every down but doesn't have the weapons.

Tech, coming off a suitable-for-framing win over North Carolina, will be excited to carry the tattered ACC banner against the mighty SEC. Jackets, by a hair.
