Riley says UGA wouldn’t have a top 5 defense if they were in the Big 12. While this may be a statistical fact because of how much Big 12 offenses throw the ball around, I don’t think that means that UGA would’ve been any less highly touted last year.

Discuss.

Sure they would, because nobody in the Big-12 plays defense.

Sour grapes, man...If OU had any semblance of a run defense, UGA loses that Rose Bowl, and Alabama decimates OU in the title game.

I mean he's right from a statistical perspective, but that doesn't change the fact that UGA's defense would still be very good.

Riley discusses defense?

I don't know where they would rank, statistically, but I would bet the 2017 UGA team has more defensive players drafted than the entire Big 12

Well maybe if he didn't have Baker on the sidelines claiming its over and fueling our defense, he'd have been right.

I'd take SEC defense over BIG12 offense every time.

All you have to do is see that he was on Danny Kannel's show and all credibility is shot to hell.

Probably not, but he is ignoring that Georgia only allowed the highly touted Oklahoma offense one TD in the second half. He probably needs to ask himself if that was due to his play calling. He is just taking a page out of "Big Game" Bob's playbook. Get beat by a SEC team and then talk about them like they are not good. I wonder if they realize how bad it looks for them since they were beaten?

Besides, if their offense was in the SEC it wouldn't be as highly ranked, either. Maybe he should think about that.

Lincoln Riley and OU are so hung up on the SEC. Meanwhile, the Big 12 is the only p5 conference not to win a playoff game.

Imagine how much better our offensive ranking would be if we got to play big 12 defenses every week

I completely agree with him and don't have a problem with what he said.

UGA would probably have the #1 defense because they would just run the ball against those soft defenses and their TOP would be around 48:00 every week.

We would have been the first team to have two rushers gain 2,000 yards rushing in the same season.
