Big 12 passing offenses are great because they dont play pass defense in that league. Or any defense for that matter.

I'm not talking specifically about you regarding that -- you're one of the only Georgia fans who might have his head on his shoulders going forward.

That's what I said. However, 70 percent of his passes for three touchdowns and a rushing touchdown is pretty much exactly that: Him doing whatever he wants.

I’m not trolling, I’m getting aggravated UGA fans are acting like they’re DBU and Baker Mayfield doesn’t stand a chance. The dude is good, I’d be nervous if LSU had to face him. Really nervous and LSU’s secondary is without a doubt better and has been tested.

Just maybe SEC passing offenses arent elite because their passing defenses are?

Points allowed per game in 2016 bowls:

Big12: 21.5
ACC: 22.3
SEC: 25.4
Pac12: 29.2
B1G: 29.8

How did this happen if they dont play defense?

That's untrue.

They also played Ohio State who has the #16 Pass Defense.

Georgia has the #8 but the difference is that there's only 2 decent quarterbacks on their entire schedule -- and both had good days against Georgia.

The SEC had twice as many teams play in a bowl than the Big 12 did in 2016 so that data is skewed

BIG XII defenses defend a shite-ton more plays per game than SEC defenses do so our defensive stats are skewed.

ESPN | No. 4 Georgia finds running game, beats Missouri 53-28
quote:

ATHENS, Ga. -- Georgia coasted through its first three SEC wins, especially on defense.

When the defense finally encountered adversity, a deep running attack took over to lead a near-record night for the offense.

Sony Michel ran for two touchdowns as No. 4 Georgia answered an early scare with 26 straight points to beat Missouri 53-28 on Saturday night.

Georgia (7-0, 4-0 Southeastern Conference) gained 696 total yards, the second-most in school history. The Bulldogs ran for 370 yards.

Missouri (1-5, 0-4) suffered its fifth straight loss as it faded following a 21-all tie in the second quarter.

Giving up three first-half touchdowns was a shock after Georgia beat Mississippi State, Tennessee and Vanderbilt by a combined margin of 117-17. Entering the game, Georgia ranked second in the nation, allowing only 10 points per game.

"That defense needed a wake-up call to go out and play better," said Georgia coach Kirby Smart, who added "the offense picked us up."

Georgia's Mecole Hardman scored on a 35-yard run in the first quarter and a 59-yard catch from Jake Fromm in the fourth quarter.

"That's what I want Mizzou to be," Missouri coach Barry Odom said. "From a game-day atmosphere to the roster. All the above. And that's my vision on where we're going. It's going to take time, but absolutely, that can be done."

Odom said Georgia is "as complete of a team as I've seen in a long time."

Missouri showed the big-play potential in its passing game on Emanuel Hall's two 63-yard touchdown catches in the first half. Drew Lock also threw a 4-yard scoring pass to tight end Albert Okwuegbunam.

"That's not the way we're accustomed to playing defense," said Georgia linebacker Roquan Smith, who said the defense "did a little bit better in the second half, but we still have room to improve."

Georgia gave up only 112 yards and seven points in the second half.

Lock threw for 253 yards with four touchdowns and one interception.

The Tigers stacked their defense against the run and gave up only 45 yards on the ground in the first quarter. The strategy put pressure on Fromm, the freshman.

Missouri linebacker Cale Garrett's interception in the first quarter set up Lock's scoring pass to Okwuegbunam.

D'Andre Swift ran for 94 yards, including a 71-yarder, Michel had 86 yards and Nick Chubb added 70 yards to lead Georgia's deep ground attack. Fromm threw for 326 yards with two touchdowns and added a 4-yard scoring run.

Georgia scored the final 13 points of the first half and the first 13 points of the second half.

"I thought we showed some grit tonight," said Smart, who said the Bulldogs took Missouri's "best punch."

On the first play of the second quarter, Chubb bounced outside and jumped over safety Thomas Wilson for a 20-yard gain. That set up Michel's 36-yard TD run.

Stidham had 214 yards -- it's not that much by OU's standards, but they finished Georgia off early and could run at will.


That's not what I said.

He had 70 percent of his passes completed and had three passing touchdowns, that is doing what he wants to, and when they got up on you they just ran it.

If Stidham can have 70% of his passes completed, Mayfield will probably do better.

Yeah. They defend more plays because they dont make more plays to stop the opponent.

Ie their defenses suck

If you asked me which conference plays better defense as a whole it’s without a doubt the SEC...but that doesn’t mean Oklahoma and TCU don’t have decent defenses. I understand with the offensive style of play they’re out there longer and get worn down.

The game will come down to Oklahoma getting 3rd down stops.

That offense is also a hurry-up, so they have significantly more plays per game than, say, Georgia.

Oklahoma runs 10 plays a game more than Georgia, and that wears on a defense.

No it’s because the Big 12 has less players drafted than the AAC last year. The Big 12 is less talented top to bottom than the SEC by a wide margin.
