Top Units in the SEC

This is the anatomy of an upset: a team with a really good record comes into a game against a team that has a much lesser record. But that good team has a suspect defensive line and that poor team has a decent offensive line and that translates into the QB having all day to throw and what seemed like an easy win turns into an upset. It all comes down to matchups.
