Nope. And they have the stats to show it. And stats is all that matter.

really running an up tempo offense against either LSU or Alabama can be counterproductive. they have the defensive depth and ability to be able to cope no matter the tempo and when the hurry up fails all you have done is hurt your defense

see Georgia vs Boise State and LSU. they completely lost any offensive momentum and left their defense out to dry with no rest

Auburn was very effective with it last year. Caught us with 12 men on the field a couple of times.

Generally, an up tempo offense can be easy to figure out. They don't have many plays to pick from. Play sound defense - and wait for them to screw up. Communication problems have been evident playing up tempo offenses. As soon as LSU figured out Texas A&M (last year), Oregon, and West Virginia, it was game over.

Any defense can be, if an uptempo offense gets on a roll against any defense and continues to drive it can put the defense on its heels.
