how does Florida's D compare to AU's D? We were able to pound the ball down their throat and beat AU 21-7 in the 2nd half

Overall Auburn's is better, but the Auburn offense is going 3 and out all the time, not giving their D any help. Florida's offense can move the chains and rest their D.

if lee woulda got the jitter bugs out in a previous game and played the first like he did the 2nd and against moo st. the game would've been totally different. Charles Scott was moving it pretty much the whole game and now that people know we can pass too scary. I think Auburn's D >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Florida's D

I got it wrong. That's Florida's total O against them. But yeah they had 61 plays for 361. Ooops. My bad.

Yet somehow managed only 7 points... At the end of the day, that's what it's about...

Auburn is bigger and more physical than Florida on defense from what I can tell.

Florida makes up for that with the insane amount of speed they bring to the table.

I guess the only way to beat that is run right at it instead of trying to run away from it.

The discussion is about the Florida D not the inept Arkansas Offense. Yards given up is on the D, points not made in spite of yards given up is on the opposing Offense. A slightly better offense might have had a different result at the end of the day.
