The defensive classes have been excellent, and easily as good as LSU and Alabama, and that has shown on the field.


Would Bama or LSU give-up 400 on the ground to Ga Southern?

So you're saying what anyways? Muschamp can recruit but he can't coach? I'm confused. And I gotta tell ya. I like the guy a lot. Would love to hammer a couple of cases of Guinness with him and then head to a taterhead biker bar to frick with the sheephumpers .... but he obviously has some things to learn about building team chemistry and getting the proper mix of blue chippers and blue collar guys giving their all for him on the field.

To be fair, gsu puts up crazy numbers on the ground against everyone, they still run the same system paul johnson installed there.

Georgia Southern put up 302 yards rushing on Alabama's best ever 2011 defense and scored 21 points, only 5 less than they did against Florida last year, and that Alabama team is one of the better teams of all time.

Florida 2013, on the other hand, was not a very good team, that was literally DECIMATED with injuries.

Should I say Steve Spurrier isn't a good coach because of one game last season where he blew the SEC because he lost to a 5-7 Tennessee team (A team that Muschamp beat without his starting QB by 3 scores? He has plenty of head scratching losses in his career. One loss doesn't mean anything, and he NEVER, and I repeat, NEVER coached a team, decimated by injuries, against the type of schedule Muschamp had last year or in 2012.

Muschamp beat 4 top 15 teams in 2012. Only one other team in recent history has done that: 2011 LSU.
In 2013, Muschamp's rag tag injured bunch played against 5 teams that won 9 or more games and 3 teams that finished in the top 5 and won 11 or more games.

Spurrier never did it.
Saban has never done it.

So Muschamp is an up and coming coach that was dealt a SHITTY hand last year, some of it was because of decisions he had made previously, but UF would have definitely beaten USCe, UGA, Georgia Southern, and probably Miami last year had they been fully healthy, and we wouldn't even be having this discussion because they would have been 8-4. UF ALMOST BEAT USC WITH THEIR THIRD STRING QB ON THE ROAD!!!!

I think he has gotten progressively better as a all around recruiter, and if he can just find the right offensive staff, he will be in a position to terrorize this league for years.

His biggest issue has been finding an offensive staff.

Actually they might have- the 2011 Alabama squad-- that wasn't missing an elite first round DT ( a guy so good he went first round after only playing 4 games and blowing out his knee for the 2nd time) and several LBs-- gave up 300 on the ground to Georgia Southern. Its kind of what they do, the key is to either outscore them or make them turn the ball over because even an elite defense is going to gashed on the ground and give up 1 or 2 huge runs.
