they're still facing primarily run first offenses that don't really use tempo that effectively, and lack legitimate vertical threats to stretch the field
I think your point is hard to argue against.
If they do match-up and Georgia can hold Alabama to single digits (even despite some of their struggles this year), and maybe an Ohio State, then we'll know.
They certainly look the part today, but I think it's fair to say that literally no one can answer this question right now.

This right here
The best teams we will face offensively after UF will be against the SECCG opponent and playoff opponents. Those teams are going to have time to game plan and find the holes in the defense. Let’s wait until the season is over and then look at the metrics.
I will say this. UGA has had some amazing defenses, but this one makes me feel like we are playing against Hawaii in the 2008 sugar bowl every game. They are relentless and the pressure we are creating with only 4-5 rushers is crazy to watch. I have not seen a Kirby defense bring this kind of pressure or play this much zone…It’s been really fun to watch.
