You can have a good defense with a poor TOP, but I'm not sure you can have a great one

In 2008, the Vols had the #3 Total Defense, and the #10 Scoring Defense. What was their TOP ranking? #98

I'm not sure, but they finished 5-7 that year.

edit: Just looked it up and they were 97th in TOP. I don't know how to explain that, but something's obviously funny, when you consider their record.

edit2: Figured it out. They were 115th in offense, averaging only 269 ypg and 17 ppg. That's still impressive, but if they can't score, you have to think the other team wasn't real worried about playing hard on offense.
