Texas football has never faced an offense like Georgia

Texas football has never faced an offense like Georgia

Have you heard the news yet? Georgia football faces the top-ranked team in the country this weekend as they travel to Texas to take on the Longhorns.

Texas presents many challenges for Georgia to overcome this Saturday. I think everyone knows how talented the Longhorns offense is, but one thing that isn’t talked about enough is their elite defense. In fact, Texas has the No. 1 defense in the country.

While this stat probably scares you, when you look at their opponents and see how talented they are (or how talented they are), you’ll quickly realize that the Longhorns may have the best defense so far this season.

The post above shows very clearly how Texas managed to have the best defense. All six opponents they have played against do not have a good offense. Three of them don’t even make the top 100, and the best offense they’ve ever faced is only No. 67.

I’m sure you know where I’m going with this. So, want to guess where Georgia’s offense is so far this season?

The Bulldogs enter this game with the 28th ranked offense in the country. Statistically speaking, this is by no means an elite offense, but it is much better than any team Texas has ever faced.

So I think the Longhorns will have a hard time slowing down Georgia’s offense on Saturday. We all saw what Carson Beck and the offense can do in their win over Mississippi State last week when Beck put on a career performance, but can they do it on college football’s biggest stage? Not only do I believe they can, but I believe they will. I think Texas will have no answer at all to Georgia’s offense and will be surprised at how talented they are.

In my opinion, this game will come down to whether Georgia can slow down the Texas offense, which happens to be the No. 7 team in the country. If they can do that, I think the Bulldogs will have a big win on Saturday.
