Florida's defense is not the jaugernaut of college football, they just happen to have the 7th best defense in the nation statistically.

On the other hand;

Oklahoma's Defense is definitely not as good as Florida's

It's pretty easy to have a good defense when you play in the SEC. The only good offenses they played against was Ole Miss (lost) and then UGA in a turnover fest. Hell UGA's offense isn't even that good IMO. A number of defenses would look extra good when your playing one demensional offenses with horrible QB play.

If OU doesn't come out too rusty, they could give the Gators serious problems.
