Calling the defense "pretty good" is misleading at best, it was dominating against what was supposed to be a good NCSU offense (time will tell). NCSU had a total of 133 yds of offense and never made it into the red zone...not once.Did you see South Carolina play last week? They looked absolutely awful on offense. Their defense looked pretty good, but it seemed that was mostly because NC State was even worse on offense.
Now I agree the offense more than offset the defenses performance. Moved the ball at times but really sputtered inside NCSU 30, and then muffed two FGs to keep game closer than it really was.
UGA will struggle to score, but so will USC. Look for low scoring affair.
