On Friday, CFB Film Room released an interesting graphic on Twitter regarding the SEC teams’ quarterbacks who are facing the most pressure so far in the 2017 college football season.

CFB Film Room compared each SEC team’s number of dropbacks with its number of pressures to determine, naturally, the percentage of dropbacks under pressure.

It found that Arkansas’ quarterbacks are under pressure most often — 47.5 percent of the time to be exact.

Florida’s passers were the second-most pressured, on average, at 47. 1 percent.

Those two teams have allowed by far the most pressure in comparison to the number of dropbacks, while South Carolina has allowed the least.

Ole Miss has the highest number of dropbacks, as well as the highest number of pressures. But percentage-wise, it ranks near the middle of the pack in the SEC.

Here is the full list of teams ranked in order of quarterbacks facing the most pressure to quarterbacks facing the least:
