Our defense sure as hell dominated EVERY F'N TEAM ON OUR SCHEDULE.
Come on man we are 8-1...if not for a Jordan Ross brain fart we would be 9-0.
I’m not denying how our defense has played…I will never deny that. Again, I’m trying to have a middle approach as to why we would be left off IF we lose.
Take a step back for a second and honestly ask yourself…is our defense good enough to beat the top 12 teams in back to back to back games? I can’t answer that, because we haven’t been tested enough other than Bama.
Could our offense? I’m going to say no because of how inconsistent we’ve been.
What if one game our defense doesn’t show up against one of the top teams, does our offense win us a game?
We’ve played one top 25 offense (Arkansas) and lost. They are 5th in total yards. The only other top offense we have played is Bama and they are 35th in total yards.
Teams in playoffs and where they rank in total yards per game:
OSU: Top 15
Oregon: Top 15
Indiana: Top 20
Texas: Top 10
Penn St: Top 25
Miami: Top 3
Bama: Like 35
Ole Miss: Top 3
UGA: Meh
BYU: Meh
ND: Meh
Like I keep saying peepaw, let’s just beat UGA and put it all to rest. UGA is around 50th or so in yards per game.
If Nico plays, we win. I think he will have a great game against that defense which in turn will give our defense plenty of time to rest. I think our defense will look strong all game due to getting some breathers.
Vols: 27
UGA: 20
See you in the playoffs.
