Arkansas' Ryan Mallett leads the nation in passing efficiency. Not a huge surprise, but it sure helps when you get a home game with Georgia. Seems all of that SEC speed is reserved for offense.
Mallett, who has a passing efficiency of 193.5, lit up the Bulldogs last weekend for 408 passing yards and five touchdowns. Winning, however, lessens the sting. Mark Richt quipped at a recent presser about his defense (Hat Tip: MrSEC.com), “Well, they’re not playing the best pass defense in the country, that’s for sure.” He did note that the Bulldogs have faced some solid passing teams. “I haven’t lost faith in this bunch at all.”
SEC fans have to love what Tony Barnhart said on his blog Mr. College Football.
"Well, Mallett may have played his first SEC game last week but his real SEC debut comes Saturday when the Hogs go to Alabama."
Mallett will see a speedier defensive unit this week when he faces No. 3 Alabama. Something tells me he won't be able to sit in the pocket against the Tide and pick apart the secondary.

right. it's not the REAL SEC until you play one of the two good teams. okay, dr. Jerry Punch/Barnhart who I suspect are actually the same person.
