Yeah pretty much sucked everywhere on D. I just always hated seeing us give up 3 and 8 or more almost every time.
I think a 10% improvement overall would be excellent. That would take is down to low 30s on 3rd down conversion and low 20s in ppg.

For comparison sake...
3rd & 7+
MSU: 17.8% (19/107)
Missouri: 19.3% (21/109)
LSU: 20.9% (23/110)
Ole Miss: 21.6% (21/97)
UT: 21.6% (22/102)
Auburn: 25% (23/92)
UF: 25% (24/96)
Alabama: 32% (40/125)
