BUT, they set a record for most wins in school history. If we used strictly stats, we shouldn't have been in the top 4 for the payoffs (sacks etc). The only stat that counts is the scoreboard at the end of the game.

You are right, you are what you record says you are, but I am not saying they can't win a bunch of games or make the playoffs. I am saying it is not unreasonable to believe they could get blown out by UGA this season based on Lane's offensive performances against a certain D and Golding's defenses historical performances even with more talent on D. They got blown out by UGA in the same season they set a school record for wins. Auburn won the natty with a pretty shitty defense overall outside of a few guys. Doesn't mean they weren't Champs, or didn't have a undefeated season but doesn't mean the D was good or wasn't a liability that couldn't have cost them games. Statistically and communication wise it looks that Ole Miss' D has the same problems Golding Ds always have and overall they were not much different than they were the year prior. Again maybe the influx of talent is the difference because at least as I see it Golding is the same liability he has always been. We will see how they progress, we know every season is different and Ole Miss isn't built like Michigan where people were brought into the system and played together over years and peaked as seniors. Revamping an entire unit through the Portal is much more unpredictable like USC's D or Colorodaos Oline.
