LSU Wire Roundtable: Staff predictions for SEC Championship Game vs. Georgia

Can the Tigers stun the Bulldogs on Saturday in Atlanta?

Heading to Atlanta to take on the No. 1, undefeated Georgia Bulldogs in front of what should be a UGA-friendly crowd, LSU will look for its second shocking upset of a conference power this season.

Unfortunately, a lot of the stakes have been removed for Kelly’s team. Before last week’s loss to Texas A&M, a win likely would have clinched LSU’s place in the College Football Playoff. Now, at 9-3, all the Tigers are likely playing for is a spot in the New Year’s Six.

The Tigers have a shot to make quite a splash in Kelly’s first season, despite last week’s result. Here’s how our staff thinks this one will play out.
