We have a few things going against us here.

Our offense is terrible

It is when we don't have a capable QB. When we do, we steamroll people. If we had this years defense on either the 2010 or 2013 teams, we would have been just about unbeatable.

Even when Sean White started getting comfortable before he got hurt, our offense started humming, and he's not a running QB. Put a running QB in there who can throw the ball(and he doesn't have be an amazing passer) and this offense always has the opportunity to take off. But when we throw someone like Jeremy Johnson, who is absolutely no threat to throw the ball past about 5-10 yards, the offense implodes.

Look at what Alabama has been able to do with Sims and Hurts. They were pretty good offenses with their game manager QB's, and they had running games that would just grind you down, but with a QB that can run too and implementing pieces of the spread, they've become a dynamic offense that Saban had never had before.
