Defense may win ballgames, but in the last seven years, the lowest average points in SEC games for the champ was 31.1points/game. The average for the champ over those seven years was 36.2.

We averaged 28.4 in 2016. We need the D to step up, but we also need the offense to improve. Against Auburn, Alabama and LSU, we averaged 12.3. Maybe we can afford one game like that, but not three.
