How come everyone claims LSU has a vaunted D but they gave up 35 at home to Ole Miss? Alabama great D throttled Michigan, yet ND's D gave up less yards and points to same team. You can credit the SEC defenses but not credit ND that's my issue.

Is anyone not crediting the ND D? They have an elite D.

And a pedestrian offense.

Just like UF. Their offense almost bit them in the arse against teams like Pitt, BYU, and Purdue.

Their D would have given up 20 points without the offense scoring enough at some point, just like with UF played against UGA.

well because according to all the good ole boys around here its because of these reasons -

"Ole Miss is a rivalry game"

"Ole Miss is a good, hard nose football team"

"Ole Miss is an SEC team ya know"

the reality is that Ole Miss is a very below average football team that just got beat by Vanderbilt (lol), but because they are in the SEC some people automatically think they are some legit team.
