Arky held Bama to less points, State only allowed 11 more points to A&M then they did. Neither A&M or Bama has looked stellar on offense lately. (A&M has been ok but not stellar)

I think they are good but I'm not sure if its good enough to stay undefeated. I see losses to Auburn and State.

Best defense in the SEC in the last 5 years easily.

shite looks 4 real. I do question some of the brutality of it though. It seems like they kind of go over board with some of the hits. But they nasty as frick

They're easily as good as some of those Florida defenses they used to trot out. And quick.

The OM defense has given up 6 touchdowns all year. Three of those came last night with one in the final seconds.


The OM defense has scored four touchdowns on the year. Two of those came last night.

Stats don't tell the story, especially if you take them out of context. For example, Alabama scored 17 pts against Ole Miss, but their defense scored 7 of that on a bullshite fumble return. Texas A&M threw for 400 yards against Ole Miss, but they threw 54 times. Ole Miss was so far ahead, Wallace only threw 19 passes. Trash points, trash yards.

Best SEC defense since the two GOATs of 2011: Alabama and LSU.

1st team D had only given up 2 TDs.

We shut Aggie out in the first half.

We held Alabama to 10 points and really should have been just 7.

Our first team D outscored Aggie's offense.

I really think it may be the quickest defense I've seen on a collegic level, and certainly Ole Miss' quickest defense. Dexter McCluster himself would have fits facing this defense. I think it is the single best defense in the nation, and plus most those points by Bama wasn't because of them.

They're really solid. They haven't faced a truly balanced offense though. State and auburn will score on them and I don't think om's offense will be able to keep up.

Good enough to keep us in any game we play. Lots of speed. Depth on the line. And Wommack schemes and prepares as well as anyone out there.

Our first unit gave up one TD to Bama and one to A&M. Subs have given up only four others all year, in mop up duty.

A&M was averaging 55 points at their place; we allowed 20. Memphis was averaging about 40 PPG (including a big game against UCLA); we allowed them three.

Landsharks are elite. Be afraid.

No sense in stat searching.

The 2011 LSU and Alabama defenses were the greatest units to suit up since Alabama's 1992 squad.

Collectively, those three units were the most dominating units in modern CFB history.
