I don't necessarily think that you are wrong, but at the same time, to act like Bo Nix is devoid of playmaking ability is disingenous. He made some good plays against us, sure, but he showed flashes throughout the season, under pressure no less. He threw a game winning 30+ yard TD in his first game as a college player.
And flashes are what he showed against us. He didn't dominate, or come close. I'd be more concerned if he threw for over 200 yards against us. I'd be more concerned if their kicker didn't all of a sudden start nailing 40+ yard field goals against when he's been whiffing on them all year.
It' was clearly not the dominating unit that we are accustomed to, but I don't think anyone thought that that was going to be the case anyway. I just simply disagree that the AU game is that much of a point of concern for the defense going forward.

Not really that surprising. What Gus/Auburn prey on is misdirection and creating mistakes. Our defense was good, but lacked the consistency needed to be Championship quality. Auburn created the mistakes and the inexperience of the defense was exploited.
Although really it's the offense that was the problem in both our losses.
