Saturday wasn’t supposed to be a bye week for anyone, but it became one thanks to outbreaks on two teams (Florida and Vanderbilt.) That unexpectedly gave their scheduled opponents, LSU and Missouri, respectively, a bye week as well.
But after Week 3, the story in the SEC was offense: evidently, somewhere along the line, SEC teams had forgotten how to play defense. That was not the case on Saturday, and the lack of offensive production in some places has fans asking questions.
First, Auburn. It’s always Auburn. Fans are asking questions in the wake of the Tigers’ 30-22 loss at South Carolina, dropping their record to 2-2 — and, really, it should be 1-3 if not for the referees blowing a late call in a two-point win over Arkansas.
