Fair point.
I can't really defend Sal for not adjusting the scheme to his players. That alone shows his ineptitude in calling the defense.
But to be fair to him, they did make some key stops throughout the season that put UT's offense in position to win games multiple times. Forced 3 turnovers in the first half and some 3rd down stops in the 4th of the UGA game, an INT in the 4th against USCe, etc. That probably gets overlooked because of all the yards they gave up and the fact that the offense couldn't capitalize.

Those 4th down stops would've been better had they not been preceded by 51 pts in 3 qtrs, including three TD runs over 50 yards (Two of those over 70yds)
. Tiny doesn't get nearly the credit he deserves for the USCe game. He contained Clowney for 98% of the game. The one play he breaks through, it happens to be the game changing play. Tiny played outstanding that game.
