I would expect a similar score to the OM/UT game...maybe closer to a 14 point game

Tough choice. Gus Malzahn has won a SEC West title with Houston Nutt as his boss and a BCS title under Gene Chizik. Hugh Freeze went 4-8 his only year as an OC.

I was about to say push with Gus just being a little more gimmicky until I read this:

Hugh Freeze also took an Arkansas stAte team that was 4-8 under Steve Roberts in 2010 to a 10-2 team in 2011 before their bowl game. He didn't coach their bowl game.

Did he coach their defense?

2010
PF/game: 30.0
PA/game: 30.8

2011
PF/game: 32.5
PA/game: 20.8

Obviously, the 2.5 ppg offensive improvement is the reason they won 6 more games.

Well, Freeze was also the OC coordinator for the 2010 stAte team under Roberts but hired Dave Wommack as DC when he became head coach in order to bring the defense up a notch. He knew what would improve the team. It wasn't the offense that had been the problem and Wommack is still with him.

Malzahn's DC at stAte (John Thompson) is still at stAte and he's pretty good as well, unless he gets blitz happy at the wrong time.

And Freeze won with the players already there too. Doesn't prove a thing. The QB greatly improved over what he was doing with Freeze coaching him.

They were bad and Freeze is amazing

ETA: That quarterback is now on OM's staff, so he's taking what little he learned from the Gus Bus and applying it to the wealth of knowledge Freeze possesses.

Freeze is a substantially better coach. It's not close, at all.
