People can joke all they want, but that ****es me off. I'm disgusted at those stats. We have more 4+ star athletes than most schools in FBS.

Don't even bother to check the stats
It is so painful to watch the defense.

Buckle up and prepare to get depressed.

Let's quickly point out the good. It shouldn't take long. We are tied for 3rd in the country in interceptions, which makes sense given the talent back there. We're also 28th on 3rd downs.

Now, time for some Doritos. It makes no sense how a defense with this much overall talent can be this awful. It's year 5 and this defense is stacked with playmakers. The below is inexcusable.


Here are the categories we are average to horrendous in:


Big Plays Allowed (20+ yards): 85th
Big Plays Allowed (20+ yards) vs Power 5 teams: 111th

Total Yards Per Game: 61st
Total Yards Per Game vs Power 5 teams: 91st

Total Yards Per Play Allowed: 93rd
Total Yards Per Play Allowed vs Power 5 teams: 96th

Passing Yards Per Game: 51st
Passing Yards Per Attempt: 63rd

Passing Yards Per Game vs Power 5 teams: 86th
Passing Yards Per Attempt vs Power 5 teams: 71st

Rushing Yards Per Game: 66th
Rushing Yards Per Carry: 102nd

Rushing Yards Per Game vs Power 5 teams: 72nd
Rushing Yards Per Carry vs Power 5 teams: 99th

Tackles For Loss: 98th

Opponent Red Zone Conversion %: 104th

Scoring Defense: 41st

Sacks: 48th

Pretty sad that being 28th in a category is considered "the good". 28th in a defensive category used to get you lynched in these parts.

Two picks in the last game came with Chad Thomas's hands up and in the QB's face..

 

[Cane Dynasty]

it's due to the fact that Al's philosophy is solely based on HOPING other teams make mistakes and not creating them. The VT fumble early in game is a prime example of it.

The good old days. When we thought Gorlden was actually a football coach.

Now these are the stats that tell the truth. Fact...most of our ints came against tomato can qbs. BCC, FAU, and VT.

Year 5, w/ the same players in the same system and nothing has changed. It's actually gone from better to worst thus far (and that's with the divided locker room "me" players removed from this program).

Anyone left to justify Golden and his staph maintaining their position here needs to be tarred, feathered, and posted to a stake.
