Defense has been salty this year.

I’d like to see the rankings of passing attacks we faced this year compared to last because this drastic of a turnaround is crazy but i feel  we prolly haven’t faced as potent of passing offenses.

#4 in points per game at 11.9

That leads the SEC. I don't think we expected that when our move to the SEC was announced a couple of years ago.

And the scary thing about the defense is there's still room for improvement.  Situationally and against the run, if those things get cleaned up, you won't be able to move the ball against Texas.  Glad PK doesn't want to be a HC because top 10 defenses are here to stay at the 40.

I don’t think any of us did especially opposing fans. Now all of the “this is the SEC” “Yall will be middle of the pack” types are moving the goalposts to we haven’t played anybody now.

Front getting more pressures and getting home helps a ton.

That’s definitely a huge part of it. Pass rushers with twitch like Colin, Trey and Ant.

Nansons creativity and multiplicity of players has been a large part of this as well as Bakers attention to teaching and developing pass rush techniques should not be overlooked.  Much better job of communicating on the back end as well.
