There are also only about one or two good offenses to be found in the SEC in any given year.
The point was they are not playing enough teams to show they are that good and not just looking good because they don't play anyone. The top offenses they do play they aren't shutting down like you expect a top defense to and alot of the time the offenses are scoring alot.

Also as far as saying they held them to less than normal the same can be said that they scored more than Bama gave up on normal. There are teams that hold the same offenses to less.

They don't play anyone? Do they not play in the SEC against virtually the same teams Auburn plays every year?

Kind of like LSU in 2011 when West Virginia put up over 530 yards of offense on one of the greatest defenses of all-time? A great defense is going to have a bad game every now and then.

P.S.,

2012 and 2013 Alabama were good, not great, defenses. 2013 more so than 2012.

The fact that you are using the transitive property to debate football tells me everything I need to know about your football IQ.
