Everyone know the SEC was down this year, way down. Look at the avg points scored by sec teams florida played.
Bama 12-1 21ppg
O Miss 8-4 17ppg
Ark 5-7 14ppg
ga 9-3 18ppg
vandy 6-6 12ppg
scar 7-5 14ppg
tn 5-7 11ppg
ky 6-6 12ppg
These ppg's are based on all 12 games, to say the sec offenses this year were anemic is a gross understatement.
Dude, where are you getting your stats from? Youre average PPG numbers are way off.
We can't look at how many points per game each team scores or gives up and look acorss the board and say Oklahoma scores 50 a game and Florida scores 40 a game. And we cant look at the defenses and compare and say Florida gives up 13 per game and Oklahoma gives up 20+. But we can look at the ratios of how these teams effect what their opponents usually do.
Top 4 conference foes:
GA averages 30+ PPG. (10 vs. FL)
Ole Miss 31 PPG (31 vs. FL)
LSU 30+ PPG (21 vs. FL)
Bama 30+ PPG (20 vs. FL)
Top 2 out of conference foes:
Miami 27PPG (3 vs. FL)
FSU 32PPG (15 vs. FL)
FL holds opponents to roughly 45% less of an output than what the team usually scores. That puts FL on pace to hold Oklahoma to 30 points if this holds true. Very similar to their point output vs. Texas.
Best team FL faced was Bama. Held Bama to 33% less than what they usually score. Puts Oklahoma on pace for 35 points if this holds true.

Best defense Oklahoma faced was TCU (OUT OF CONFERENCE DEFENSE!!!). Oklahoma scored 35 vs. TCU. 218% more than what they usually give up. Puts them on pace to socre 41 vs. Florida. Some may argue Texas was the best defense they faced, and that makes their output even worse.
Taking all of the projected points and averaging them out gives us the following:
Florida O cumulative avg. vs. top teams = 47
Florida O avg vs. best team = 59
Florida D cumulative avg. vs. top teams = 30
Florida D avg vs. best team = 35
Oklahoma O cumulative avg. vs. top teams = 31
Oklahoma O avg vs. best team = 41
Oklahoma D cumulative avg. vs. top teams = 32
Oklahoma D avg vs. best team = 46
Florida 46
Oklahoma 34
Eerily similar score to the Texas game using this logic.
