These are both highly talented, well-coached teams.
With Georgia, we've seen multiple times how good this team can be... and just how bad it can be.
With Texas, I don't think we've seen its ceiling or its floor. It's hard to know which Georgia team we'll get week to week, but it's also hard to know just what kind of team Texas really is.
But here's the difference: A lot of the guys in red and black have faced pressure and adversity this season. The upperclassmen have played in more than their share of huge games over the past four seasons and won almost all of them. The Dawgs have been backs to the wall multiple times this year, and they know how to dig deep.
Texas? They made the playoff last year as Big 12 champ, and they lost. The only truly huge game they've played this year was against Georgia, and they lost. When have they responded well to real pressure?
I'd bet on the guys that have been there. The guys who have responded in the toughest moments. The team that is BATTLE-TESTED.
