SEC Teams Face Offensive, Defensive Tests

South Carolina’s offense has relied heavily on quarterback LaNorris Sellers, whose running ability gives the unit promise, but inconsistent passing accuracy and a lack of a clear No. 2 running back or standout receiver remain concerns. Georgia enters its matchup with Alabama as a high-scoring, efficient offense, converting 55% of third downs, while Alabama’s defense will need to recover after Florida State sustained drives by converting eight of 15 third-down attempts. Kentucky has started 4-1 behind a strong offensive line and a defense that leads the SEC in pressures; its pass rush, spread across several players, faces another test against LSU.
