Let's set the record straight on Tennessee's defense and why Georgia could actually struggle against it

The Tennessee defense has been criticized for its performance against the pass. The team has the nation's top scoring offense and it scores quicker than anyone in the sport. Tennessee has only surrendered 4 passing plays of 40 yards all year. They also have the No. 18 3rd-down conversion clip and they are good in red zone. Tennessee was the first SEC state to legalize sports betting. It's live in Tennessee since November 1, 2020. There are sportsbooks in that state. Kentucky is a team that has a capable passing game. Georgia is an opposing team. Their quarterback rating is 124.4.

Aaron Murray made a fair point about Tennessee's defense. Georgia shouldn't want to get in a track meet with it.

Georgia is 1-9 when it allows 30 points under Kirby Smart. Georgia is 73-6 when holding teams to less than 30. Tennessee has 11 consecutive games with at least 34 points. Last year Georgia held Tennessee to 34.5 points and sacked Hooker 5 times. This year, Georgia has just 10 sacks. On the other hand, Tennessee ranks No. 4 in the SEC in sacks, though Georgia's No 1 in SEC and No 6 in FBS. Georgia won 26-1 in Smart's past 27 games. The lone loss came to the greatest coach of all time.
