We have to remember, since 2008, Auburn has had Paul Rhodes, Ted Roof, Brian Van Gorder, Ellis Johnson, Will Muschamp and Kevin Steele as defensive coordinators. That's a lot of turnover. On offense, Gus Malzahn's offense only performs well with a great athlete that has the ability to also pass.

Well if we still has muschamp I'm sure it would. Maybe Steele can get some consistency and have a good defesne. But the offense doesn't really hold the defense back that much

Clemson gives you the finger.

You could say that and many do, but it has no basis. Plays per game stressing the defense? That holds no water because AU has never been more than middle of the pack. A shitty offense like we had last year and 2012 (which was a pro-style and not Gus) puts a lot more stress with a lot of 3-outs.
