Florida had the best defense in the SEC and in the country this year IMO.


In your opinion maybe, but Bama was #1 again by the numbers. We were #1 in rushing defense and #5 in pass defense. Florida was #5 overall, #8 rush and #12 pass. UF numbers were good but not #1.

Defense Stats

And don't give me "our schedule was tougher crap". When you throw in the SECCG we had the 3rd toughest and Florida had the 6th toughest.

What I can't WAIT for is Mr Teo stepping in to fill a hole on a short yardage play and our 320 pound Australian fullback pancakes him.

I have no idea what the numbers are honestly, I'm going on what I saw.

Bama's D struggled badly against A&M and made Mettenberger look all-SEC, and those were the only 2 teams worth a shite yal played all year until the SECCG.

I don't think UF even gave up a 1st down in the second half against A&M, they completely destroyed LSU's offense, forced a bunch of turnovers against FSU and made Murray look like a child despite losing that game with their shitty offense.

Look at the prime games. Bama and UF both played LSU, aTm, and UGA. I will bet Bama gave up over 500 ypg and 30+ pts. UF held all three to modest days. I got no dog in this hunt - just lookin at the reality of it.

Yall played UGA, A&M, and LSU.

UF played UGA, A&M, LSU, FSU, and South Carolina.

I don't know why you linked that page, but every SOS rating including Sagarin has UF's SOS way higher than Alabama's.
