With all of that turnover on the defensive side of the ball, maybe some folks were correct in their summation a few years ago that Gus' offensive philosophy can't coincide with a top shelf defense?

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.
