How do you figure? Our defense has been great the last couple of years, but they weren't infallible. They didn't play well enough to win last year against Clemson but the offense and special teams bailed 'em out and that was when they weren't on the field 99 plays. This past game, the offense is partly to blame since they couldn't sustain many drives but, at some point, the D has to get some stops here and there. Giving up over 500 yards in a game, and over 400 yards passing, is never playing well enough to win...last year we could overcome it, but this year the offense/special teams couldn't play well enough to win either. It was a team loss...
