It’s usually a great offense or a great defense. Very rarely is it both. I believe SMU is the only team with a top 20 Offense and Defense this year

Truth. I've always wondered about that. It has to have something to do with the way they practice.
Maybe the offense whipping the defense all the time carries over to games, and good defensive teams humiliate the offense all week at practice carries over ?
That's all I got

Oregon, Michigan, Georgia, Texas, Alabama, Notre Dame, and Mizzou all had Top 20 offenses and defenses. SMU had the 27th rated offense and 35th rated defense. SMU would get manhandled by all of those teams...
YPG is not an accurate measure of defensive and offensive ability.
Washington's D was ranked 36th last year. This was after being ranked 75th in 2022 though. Their D fell off after Peterson left.
