re: This stat cannot be correct.

Because teams get better as the season progresses, you need to take your last 4 SEC games, add up all the points you gave up, subtract special teams and defensive points, divide by 4.

Even that is suspect. We scored 28 points before Auburn had a first down. Johnny played one series in the second half, at which point we went up 49-7. For all intents and purposes we held Auburn to 7 points. We gave up 24 to LSU, 27 to Ole Miss(in a really really really sloppy game) and 10 points to Arkansas. Realistically our defense isn't going to give up more than 35 to Alabama, and a lot of that has to do with our up tempo offense. If we score 36 or more we beat Alabama, imo. Does that happen? I don't think so, but I fricking hate the gumps and I want to stomp their smug entitled asses.
