What UK fan has said you haven’t played anybody this season? I call BS on that one (at least in a halfway serious post).

It starts with a kentucky fan saying they are the best defense we will face all season.

When stats entering the UGA game show Auburn slightly better (300 yards per game), Arkansas significantly better (260 yards per game), and South Carolina giving up 180 yards defensively per game... then the kentucky reply is that stats dont matter because we havent played anyone (because they aint undefeated kentucky).

I questioned someone throwing Auburns stats out when they're obviously bloated by 60+ point games against Akron, Alabama State, an odd struggle against Georgia State and an LSU team thats likely headed for a coaching search. Obviously the Penn State game and the LSU game are quality matchups but Kentuckys schedule has had 4 SEC games.

Thats not saying Georgia hasn't played anyone and thats not saying Auburn is bad, it's simply saying comparing Kentuckys stats against an Auburn team that only played 2 BCS schools is in my opinion a bad comparison.

Is that not true?

Unless you play Alabama in the SECCG, statistically we will be the best defense you’ve faced all season. Rated higher than Clemson as well (who has played one less game).

That doesn’t mean you haven’t played anybody. Or claiming an outright win. But I don’t see where there’s a falsehood in claiming so far we’d be the best defense you’ll play. There’s literally stats to back that claim up.
