I don't see USC scoring that many points on Georgia. I could see them scoring that many if they played Michigan, Ohio State or TCU. I think Georgia would overwhelm USC. They have the athletes in the secondary to cover the WR's, like they did with comparable offenses like Oregon (3 points) and Tennessee (13 points). The difference is -- Georgia is almost one of the most physical teams too, so running the ball will also be ridiculously hard.
Honestly -- I think Georgia is going to smack around any team they face that is left and one of them is my Michigan team, if we get there. I think we'd get steam rolled by them

You still haven't figured out the SEC, they are very Jekyll and Hyde. What you don't understand about top recruits is that they also give up easily because they really don't care about the school but rather their NFL career. Georgia can be beat. I think they win it all but to say they are unbeatable is silly. Anything can happen with twenty year olds.

I can see kids looking past opponents and thinking they can win just by showing up, but right now, Georgia is, by far, the top team in college football. Every other team has huge flaws to go along high level areas of their team.
Michigan can run the ball, have a quality defense, but they can't throw the ball.
TCU has a good offense, but a very suspect defense.
OSU can throw the ball with anyone, but their defense has shown it can be run on and can be thrown on.
USC has a fun offense to watch, but they are a disaster on defense.
Georgia is strong everywhere. If you want to play physical, they can play physical (see Kentucky game). If you want to spread it out and use tempo, they have the athletes to stop you (see Oregon and Tennessee).
Offensively -- they can match the production of any team. If they need to pass to beat you, they can. If they need to run to beat you, they can.
I'm not saying Georgia will be unbeatable every year. I'm saying this year, they are the only complete team. The rest of the teams who will be in the CFP all have big flaws with their team, mostly on defense. And just like last year -- Michigan is the most like Georgia, but Georgia is Michigan on steroids all over again. I think they'd beat us quite easily.

I can agree to most of this, I just think Georgia is more vulnerable than you think. The QB play is still spotty. They only put up 16 on Kentucky. They definitely have the best defense though and Kirby Smart has done a heck of a job coaching this year. I think his coaching job is underrated.

If you are good at turnovers, we are good at giving the ball up. We are -3. One of our weaknesses. I would love to play you guys because I liked USC growing up. Love your traditions!

Don’t project your problems on our team. We have awesome culture, even with highly rated players. There will be no give up on our team.
Of course we can be beat. But you it won’t be because our players quit, or fight in the locker room.

While I agree that Georgia is the best team in cfb, what are you basing USC not scoring that many points on? Look at their schedule...who on that schedule has an offense that is better than USCs?
Who on their schedule has a QB as good as Caleb Williams? Or a receiving corp as deep as USC's?
Unless they somehow came out just completely unprepared, Georgia would win by double digits. But I think you're undervaluing USCs offense.

How about next year? We might even have something that resembles a defense next year. lol

You really don't like Stetson Bennett. The guy isn't flashy, but he doesn't have to be with all the talent around him. He still completes 68% of his passes, has the 7th highest QBR in CFB and has rushed for 7 TDs to go along with throwing for over 3,000 yards.
The guy won't be playing on Sunday's, but he is a hell of a college QB.

It is not just me, even Georgia fans doubt him at times. I know Uncle Lou can be an idiot but even he, as a Georgia fan, isn't high on Stetson Bennett.

The PAC is atrocious defensively. That's what I'm basing it on. I will put it in perspective the enormous difference between a PAC defense and Georgia. Last year -- the ENTIRE PAC CONFERENCE COMBINED (that's every single team), had 5 defensive players drafted in the 1st 3 rounds of the NFL draft. Georgia had 5 defensive players drafted in the 1st round alone.
Who has a better offense than USC on their schedule? Tennessee. They average more points, more yards and their QB has a higher QBR than Caleb Williams. They also have a WR as good as USC, headed by not one, but two WR's who will be either 1st or 2nd round picks next year. They averaged 540 yards a game, play at a faster pace than USC and they were completely shut down by Georgia. They scored a late TD to finish with 13 points.
Another offense that is very comparable to USC. Oregon. They have almost identical stats to USC. They finished with 3 points against Georgia.
Is that enough for you? The #1 and #3 offense in CFB put up 16 points combined against Georgia.
Isn't USCs team offense literally only one ypg, and 2pts more per game than Oregone, and lower in both than Tennessee?
Caleb is a good QB. So is Bo Nix, in the pac...
Don't get me wrong, I picked USC to win the pac, and am glad they are heading the right direction. I just believe the entire conference is soft right now. We saw what Georgia will do to high powered offenses in Oregone and Tennessee. It wasn't pretty.
I am looking forward to the USC vs Notre Dame game. If you guys pull it off, that will be the best ooc win for the conference. Right now I think it's Oregone over BYU, thats pretty damn weak.

Some idiot fans might. Are you really hanging your hat on this? He sliced and diced your defense without any problems. In our game, one of our QBs had 3 receptions of more than 30 yards. It wasn't your QB.
Stet is seriously something like 20-1 as a starter, with a natty. He was 3rd in QBR last year, 7th so far this year. One day you are going to learn that winning college football is more than scoring 63 points every game. Smart plays balanced football ... that means sometimes you score in the 40s and 50s, and sometimes all you need is 27 for a dominating win. Sometimes you run for 247 yards, only pass for 116, but win the game 16-6. Balance, team-first attitude. It keeps your players from fighting in the locker room, builds a balanced cohesive championship winning team.
Uncle Lou - GTFO.
You want me to start referring to this loser as being representative of your team?

So you're basing it strictly on your opinion.
Tennessee has been exposed and no, they don't have a better offense.
Oregons offense wasn't what it is now when they played Georgia.

I don't care what a single fan says about Stetson Bennett. His stats back up his play. The guy is having to do it in the highest of high pressure games too.
Bennett is not going to be a guy who will be playing on Sunday's, but the guy is a winner and a tremendous college QB.
Tennessee is 3-1 against top 20 team defenses. USC hasn't played one! Yet.
It would be criminal what our offense would do with a pac schedule.

I'm basing it on facts. Tennessee has played the 3rd toughest schedule in all of CFB -- they average 540 yards per game. Georgia overwhelmed them. Oregon's offense isn't what it was the 1st week because...............THEY ARE PLAYING PAC DEFENSES and not Georgia.
You think it is just a coincidence that both Tennessee and Oregon were completely shut down by Georgia?!?
And YES -- Tennessee has a better offense.
Total Offense
Tennessee - 5944 yards
USC -- 5634 yards
Passing yards
Tennessee -- 344.5 yards per game
USC -- 330 yards per game
Rushing yards
Tennessee -- 191.5 yards per game
USC -- 182.2 yards per game
Scoring offense
Tennessee -- 46.5
USC -- 42.6
Strength of Schedule
Tennessee #3
USC #40
But tell me again how USC has a better offense
