Because of Kevin Steele and the defense.

Head coaches get blame and credit for both sides of the ball.

Our problem in '14 was we had no defense. Who did the blame fall on? Malzahn. So now when the problem is fixed. You can't just give him zero credit for it.

He either gets zero blame and zero credit or some blame and some credit. You can't have it both ways.

The guy that got fired.

I'll give him credit for finding a better DC and an uptick in defensive recruiting. As for in game performance, Gus gets no credit for what happened on the defensive side of the ball last Saturday against Clemson.

I am saying that the game was only an 8 point game because of the defense. If someone is going to sit here and argue that Gus is a good coach and we should step back from the ledge because we lost by 8 points, it's fair to argue why we only lost by 8 points. Gus and his offense had nothing to do with the score being as close as it was. We scored two fricking field goals. One was because of a Clemson turnover.
