Chavis is still doing a great job, our defense is vastly superior to where it was a year ago.


Through 7 games in 2014:

222.1 passing yards per game
174.9 rushing yards per game
397.0 total yards per game
22.6 points per game

Through 7 games in 2015:

191.4 passing yards per game
200.1 rushing yards per game
391.6 total yards per game
24.1 points per game

Surely your definition of "vastly superior" doesn't mean 5 yards less per game and 1.5 more points per game, right?

Not sure if you're accounting for points their offense gave up, which shouldn't be added to defensive stats, like pick sixes, etc.

OUCH! Those are pretty close to Snyder numbers, but with no 59-0 yet

If we give up 59 points and 600 yards of total offense to South Carolina this weekend I think you'll see most of us change our tune

Cool post. Sure took a lot of research for you to make mean ole Aggy look bad. How about we actually compare each common team to last year:

Arky 2014 - 28 pts
Arky 2015 - 21 pts

Miss St 2014 - 48 pts
Miss St 2015 - 17 pts

Bama 2014 - 59 pts
Bama 2015 - 41 pts (including 24 gifted by our offense)

Ole Miss 2014 - 35 pts
Ole Miss 2015 - 23 pts

Like other posters have said, no one is claiming our defense is great, but is is most assuredly vastly improved from the last two years.
