So watching college football today the announcers always make a statement like “That drive took 10 minutes so the defense got a good rest”. How is that rest only beneficial to the defense and not for the opposing offense?

Offense dictates tempo, bc they snap the ball. You never see the defense in “hurry up”. They are setting they’re defensive calls based on what the offense is doing. It’s why you get unbalanced teams, (read: great offense/bad defense) lose.
I could list quite a few teams, but if you can’t run the ball, your Defense suffers.
You’re not wrong, in the sense anytime you’re not in the field, you’re “resting”. But offense sets the tempo.
