It seemed like a great spot for the suddenly surging <span class=SpellE>Dawgs<\/span> to rise up and give LSU that much anticipated loss. After all everybody has recognized that Les Miles&#8217; club is not that good and being fourth in the country is just silly, if not entirely wrong.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> Then I started to realize as this line started to shoot up that we are looking at a perfect spot for the Tigers to rise up and prove they are really <span class=SpellE>really<\/span> good with a really <span class=SpellE>really<\/span> athletic playmaker of a quarterback in Jordan Jefferson and a smash mouth running game led by Charles Scott.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> Granted the Bayou Bengals lost five games a season ago and have not played a <span class=SpellE>realy<\/span> quality game in a few years (save the Chick <span class=SpellE>Fil<\/span>-A Bowl where they destroyed Georgia Tech). What happened on that night in January? The world said how bad LSU was and how great Tech was and bam! It&#8217;s almost like clockwork at times, the public deems a team as overrated, like LSU here, and they come out with a vengeance and take care of business.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> This number basically opened up at 2 \u00bd or so for <st1:country-region><st1:place>Georgia<\/st1:place><\/st1:country-region> and has risen to 4. More times than not you know what that means and have to trust the <span class=SpellE>oddsmaker<\/span> over the square public.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> <st1:country-region><st1:place>Georgia<\/st1:place><\/st1:country-region> is pretty good as they scored a ton of points in beating <st1:State><st1:place>South   Carolina<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> and <st1:State><st1:place>Arkansas<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> as Joe Cox <span class=SpellE>proed<\/span> he can be really solid on this level and <span class=SpellE>AJ<\/span> Green is an absolute wide receiver monster who may be the best there is in the entire nation. The <span class=SpellE>Dawgs<\/span> are also at home which is huge&nbsp;but this game just flat out smells. Everything seems to be lining up perfectly for Mark <span class=SpellE>Richt&#8217;s<\/span> squad and I mean everything. But when this happens and the&nbsp;number then flies over that all important field goal mark you just have to take a step back and smell the Azaleas.<br \/> &nbsp;<br \/> I am not a big believer in the &#8220;trap game&#8221; as some people seem to believe but I am a firm believer in going against the public in situations such as this one. <st1:country-region><st1:place>Georgia<\/st1:place><\/st1:country-region> was fairly lucky to beat <st1:place><st1:PlaceName>Arizona<\/st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType>State<\/st1:PlaceType><\/st1:place> last week and may not get the breaks this week as Joe Q.
