Has Auburn had a good defense with Malzahn on the staff or as head coach?

Not really and I think it was actually worse with him gone in 2012 and a bastardized pro-style offense.

Why would Malzahn as an offensive coordinator affect the defense?

People like to shite on his scheme, but he's a run-first offense. Plenty of high-paced offenses have been complemented by good defenses. Oregon has had plenty of good defenses. Florida and Ohio State under Meyer as well.

And as mentioned already, Auburn switched to a pro style offense in 2012 and had the worst defense in SEC history.

Auburn in 2008 switched to the Tony Franklin NASCAR offense and still produced a top notch defense.
