They are #1 in the SEC in total offense and #2 and #3 in rushing and passing. They are by far the best offensive team we will have faced. We are #36 in the nation in defense about exactly where we finished last year and we have not played a top notch offense yet.
(UT is #45 in rushing defense and #16 pass efficiency.)
If you look at total defense nationally I think it looks pretty good for us considering the following: UGA #7 FL #8 and Appalachian State #11. We have faced 3 of the top 11 defenses in the country. A&M comes in at #51. A&M is #18 in the nation in pass efficiency defense but #107 IN RUSHING DEFENSE. You have to think we need a big day from Hurd and Kamara to protect our defense and take advantage of their weakness.
Oh, and UGA is #1 in the nation on defense for passing yards allowed.
