Synchronizing LFSRs Fibonacci vs Galios

When discussing the advantages and disadvantages of Fibonacci vs Galois LFSRs, I often see mentioned that using the Fibonacci topology allows loading the received bit stream to the shift register to initialize it to the same state and achieve synchronization. Why can't it be done the same way with Galois ? I.E: when the Rx side receives the word it simply loads it to become the seed for the next values to come.
