AUSTIN, Texas — Texas defensive tackle Alfred Collins said after the Longhorns dominated Texas A&M that Texas has the best defense in the country. It's hard to argue with the evidence the No. 2 Longhorns have produced week after week in earning a spot in the Southeastern Conference championship game this week against No. 6 Georgia. Texas ranks No. 3 in total defense and No. 2 in scoring defense. The game is a rematch of Georgia's 30-15 win on Oct. 19. The 30 points were the most surrendered by Texas this season as the Bulldogs used turnovers to set up short scoring drives early.
