Emperical data showing Aggy's improvement year to year from 2022 to 2023 on offensive scoring efficiency.
The green means improvement and how many FBS rankings were changed (positively) year to year through 11 games in 2023. Red means rankings were worse than last year.
Left column is defensive SE, Middle column is Offensive SE, and right column is overall SE.
As you can see, Bobby improved Aggy's offensive scoring efficiency by 75 spots nationally.
And you can also see that Dan fricking Enos lowered Arkansas' Offensive SE by 21 spots nationally.
Also your can see that our "awesome" defensive staff only improved over Odom's final year by 2 slots. And I'd think after the Mizzou game it's probably worse than Barry in 2022.

This is going to be such a strange experiment. If he comes in and has success, he could quickly move on since he won’t actually be the head coach here. How will our fanbase react to that, if we get stuck with Sam and he goes elsewhere?
On the flip side, if he fails, it will be a tough pill to swallow since we all hold him on such a high pedestal as we saw today.
Perfect world, he has success, Sam retires, he takes over, we win the national championship the year after Saban retires.

In the defense of our defense, our offense gave up 5 turnovers in the Missouri game and the team had nothing to play for besides pride. Which is important… but let’s not pretend that Pittman was doing a good job motivating them.
Our defense got put into bad positions all year by our shitty offense and they did a great job given those circumstances. Odom’s defense benefited from having a much better offense whose main problem was shitty red zone efficiency.

More than what he brings to the table as an OC, though how can Petrino put out a worse product than we had on the field this year, it is his wealth of experience as a HC that we really need on the sidelines.
Pittman spent all but a few years of his career as a position coach. He doesn't have game management experience and frankly it shows. It cost us, dearly, in some games this year. Petrino has a surplus of experience in that regard and it should help a lot next season.
