What the hell game are you watching. The defense is awesome. And has been every game. The difference tonight is we are calling running plays and playing to our strengths on offense finally

The defense is awesome because of the players and talent we have, it damn sure ain't because of the defensive coordinator. A blind monkey couldn't 17 that up.

Auburn is averaging, what, 30 points a game this year? I'd say our D has done their job.

I actually think Shoop has done a good job. My only complaint is that he calls the same play on 3rd and 17 as he does on 3rd and 7.

I guess some folks simply dont understand the intricacies of playcalling. We are out of position to start plays allllll game. Its our talent that does what it does

I was pretty pissed at him when it was 3rd and 17 and we brought the house. They throw a screen and get 25. How can you not expect that. Third and long you have to play coverage. But no touchdowns against the number 8 team is a hell of a performance.

So u would give a 10 yard cushion to every reciever when that qb cant throw a 5 yard pass? Thats bad football. Auburn...and uf for that matter...only got what they did on short dunk plays, slants, and screens. But we cushion on EVERY play? That makes 0 sense

Yet they ended up with three field goals. Whatever he did obviously worked

Cover 3 is stronger against the run than man to man. For cover 3 to work in the passing game the corners need to be able to sink to that depth, but we seem to play better when play downhill which is what depth on the snap lets us do. It’s the least of all evils.

Bruh GTFOH! Shoop has done a damn good job this season. **** he’s statistically better than Grantham was.

Well I suppose you could prevent AU from score even 9 points

as the resident defensive expert (aside from engie)**, I feel the need to weigh in. Shoop did fine. We are going to start getting screened to death on 3rd and long, but shoop can break that tendency easily. We let snell run all over us, but that game aside, I give the defense an A and a B+ including Kentucky. It's going to be interesting to see how the defense looks next year without the NFL guys.

Maybe you're looking at this the wrong way. Maybe we are forcing them to try to drive the field one little dink pass at a time. We are taking away the homerun plays.

One negative play (sack, penalty, whatever) and 1st downs become much more challenging when you can only dink.
