That pretty much sums up my thoughts on the game, except in a much more knowledgeable about X's and O's kind of way. The defenses were the difference in the game. Theirs was very good and Venables (sp?) called a great game. Ours has been pretty meh, and Tosh looked green last night.
We lost to a better team. But, it's not the end of the world. Barring another rash of injuries, I think the defense will be greatly improved next year, and the offense is returning a lot.

For the 2nd time against Clemson in a National Championship game, our coordinators got outcoached and outclassed. Some of that could be blamed on staff turnover, but most of it falls on lack of preparation and poor game planning.
It's hard to say if Tosh is the answer at DC. He was working with a brand new secondary and two MLB's that aren't at the level we've become accustomed to. Add in the injuries to Allen and Lewis, and it's kind fo encouraging the defense did as well as it did this season. They got flat exposed the final 3 games of the year though.
