SU defense is ranked 10th in the nation in scoring defense in the first half of games only giving up 8.8 points. By comparison, Georgia is ranked 5th giving up 5.5. It's only the second half where they struggle. LSU is ranked 74th giving up 14 and Georgia is 1st only giving up 4.1 points per game.


Here are the second-half points allowed, by game:
Vandy 0
Tenn 0
Ark State 0
ND 7
Tenn 0
South Carolina 0
UK 0
Florida 14
Missouri 0
Auburn 14
Texas A&M 10
G Tech 0

UGA has been incredible in the second half at shutting out bad teams that were getting blown out.

They've been not nearly as impressive at stopping decent teams in competitive games.

Basically, when a good team has switched in to "need to score here" mode, they've been able to do so.

Unfortunately for UGA, LSU is always in "need to score here" mode.

Agree with you on Georgia in the second half....they have been nasty but some teams have gotten to them in the second half.

Has it been because the teams went more up tempo? Sorry I live overseas and haven't seen much of Georgia games.
