Is that per the SEC conference or national?

According to Sport Reference you're 105th in the country in defensive ranking.

Since the thread title is "

lead the SEC
" I posted SEC rankings. The good, the bad and the ugly.

So, that is why Tennessee's defensive ranking for Rushing Yards Per Game is #10, while Alabama is #13. Or Tennessee is #1 in Sacks while Bama is #13. The national numbers would be much different than that.

Well, according to NCAA.com, we're 100th in total defense...so, suck on that.

Mizzou played no one before Bama. Yawn.


Tennessee doesn’t have a top 25 win and UGA defense isn’t what it was. Yawn

Not my problem and is nothing but excuses. If's and but's are for whiners and excuse makers. The game was played, and the game was won by Alabama. When you lose your excuses you'll find your way.


Ok? I was just illustrating facts, you won the game, you don't have to act like a gump, there's enough of y'all to go around

The post game commentary has gone exactly how I predicted it would. If Missouri would have won it would have been "told y'all Bama sucked", "the decline, etc".

If Bama wins it's because of "If this, if that, if, if, if".

It wouldn't have mattered if Bama would have beaten them 55-0. The haters would have rolled out the "if's" just like you did.

Defenses played:
122nd
127th
128th
FCS

You do have UGA at 26th and MSU at 46th, but still - that average is 98th.

Tennessee has played the third weakest SEC schedule to date as well.

Your offense is definitely good, I'll give you that; I don't know if it would be #1 in all those categories if they had played an average schedule.

55-0 kind of collapses your argument, that it was 27-24 and Mizzou outgained Bama despite only having the ball 21 minutes renders my argument sensical

Yep the Tennessee defense is a strange animal. Elite at getting to the quarterback and creating turnovers a but overall bad at everything else.

you really didn't post any facts at all though. You surmised that Missouri would have had more success against Bama had they not abandoned the run with Hardy, which may or may not be true, especially considering that Hardy didn't do shite with the 12 carries he got.

UT would beat LSU by two TDs. And they certainly won't finish 8-4 like LSU will.
