Allowed 10 passing and 1 rushing TDs in 11 games. 68.8 yards rushing per game

LSU looks like a juggernaut on Offense, but our defense has earned our trust.

Allowing just 11 TD’s in 11 games is crazy good. Given the way football is played these days and the fact that we’ve played three ranked teams and a solid TAMU team, that should be impossible.

Last 4 games have been against 4 SEC teams, 3 AP TOP25 teams....we've allowed 41 total points through those 4 games.

It's not the defense anyone is worried about. We know they're great. It's the abysmal offense that is the problem, as well as a head coach who goes conservative with every halfway decent lead in the second half.

It's actually incredible that UGA hasn't trailed once in the last 5 games given how bad the offense has been.

Even more amazing when you consider how many quick 3 and outs we've had, giving the defense no rest.

This Georgia team gave up 84 points in conference play - the fewest allowed by an SEC East team. Ever.

As long as this guy is healthy, we gone punish opponents offenses repeatedly.

That's the key. Just a slight improvement on offense makes this maybe the best team in the country.

Extending 3 3&out drives to 3 minutes each would make an enormous difference for the D later in the game. One extra TD a game makes every opponent one dimensional and increases the sack and turnover numbers.
