re: How many third and longs (Over 7 yards) have we given up?

I'd also be interested to know how many 20+-yard plays we've given up, and how that compares to other teams. I suppose the stat and the comparison are out there somewhere in Computerland. Anyway, it seems to me we give up more than our share of big yardage plays—whether it's first down, second or third. And it seems to me we've been doing this for years now. This is just my perception and I could be wrong; lacking data I can't say for sure. And this is not a whiner complaint—God knows with the success we've had over the last four years, I ain't complaining. Just making an observation—and wondering if it's statistically valid.

Well, I can't speak for total plays over 20 yards, but LSU has given up 20 passing plays of 15+ yards, and 4 rushing plays of 20+ yards.
Georgia has given up 33 passing plays of 15+ yards, and 1 rushing play for 20+ yards.
Georgia has played 7 games. Florida and LSU have played 6.
Florida has given up 21 passing plays of 15+ yards, and 3 rushing plays of 20+ yards.
You can look all of this up yourself at cfbstats.com
