Comes via Brett Edgerton of ESPN.com:
Didn’t a combined 90 points in that Georgia-LSU game look a little strange for a Southeastern Conference matchup? Well, it was. Not only had no game involving an SEC team this season totaled more than 72 points, but the shootout in Baton Rouge was only the fifth conference game in the 76-year history of the SEC — and first since 1995 — to get to 90 points in regulation.
It would be even more impressive had we won 90-0.

There are 3 SEC Quarterbacks to only 1 Pathetic-10.
There are 6 Big XII.
There is 1 Big 10.
There is 1 Mountain West and 1 Conference USA.
13 of the best offenses in the nation who are led by Strong Quarterbacks.
It remains true that, despite 90 points in this game, The SEC has by far the nation’s best defenses.
And, the Big XII – who has the all-time worst record in BCS Games, all-time worst record in Bowl Games, and all-time worst record in the BCS National Championship Games – has by far the worst defenses in the nation.
