UGA's Defense compares favorably to UF's defense

[UGA IX]

I am pretty down on our offense with GL doing his best impersonation of a guy in a neck brace who cannot turn, but I was encouraged by the defense.

Here are some stats I read, which surprised me as it seemed like UF's defense has been far more dominant.
Yes, I know UGA and UF have played different opponents, but TIFWIW:

Through 7 games:

Total defense, UGA #21, UF #22

YPG allowed, UGA 307.9, UF 314.4

3rd down conversions not allowed, UGA #13, UF #41

1st down defense, UGA #17, UF #35

Scoring defense, UF #17 (17.3), UGA #25 (19.4)

Unfortunately, UF is way ahead in sacks and turnovers caused.


EDIT: Against UT and Missouri, UF gave up 419 yards to UT and 257 to Missouri---676 total . UGA gave up 519 to UT and 164 to Missouri- 683 total.
