Test: No. 1 Georgia’s offense deserves some credit, too

ATHENS – Georgia’s defense gets the lion’s share of credit for the team’s success this season, and for good reason. Its performance thus far has been historic. But the Bulldogs sport a pretty decent offense, too, and the combination therein is why they’re nation’s No. 1-ranked team.

Entering Saturday’s game at Georgia Tech (noon, ABC), the Bulldogs (11-0) rank seventh in the nation in scoring (40.3 ppg). That’s second only to Alabama (44.4) in the SEC.

What separates Georgia, however, is its combination of a high-octane offense with a stiff-necked defense.
