Well, we should have still out scored everyone. Golden chose to play Highsmith and Rogers at safety like a complete moron. Bush, Perryman, Robinson and Chik were on the D.
Shoot, I see no reason why three good players on D can't stop everyone. Our D talent was putrid in 2013. Our O was good, but no O is going to be able to outscore everyone when your D is that bad. Undefeated with that O... give me a freaking break. FSU won the title that year and even they couldn't have overcome a D like that.
Did you watch the same bowl game I did? You know, the one against Louisville? When we couldn't get a ****ing first down and had zero offensive points through 3 quarters?
So, going by bowl games alone is cool? If that's the case, we should hire Mark Donofrio back, because his D shut Mike Leach down. One game doesn't a pattern make. If I remember correctly our starting QB was without a leg that game. Now as for the rest of the season, we won 9 games because our O scored well. Remember the NC State game? Our D gave up half a million yards but we won because of our O. Seems like I remember Morris breaking the UM record for passing yards that day. Our O stunk it up in the bowl, for sure, but people need to stop acting like our O was the reason we weren't good that year. Check our D rankings in 2013. They were absolutely the bottom of the barrel.
