Steele’s press man has cost AU more games than Gus inept Offense. Last year he got credit because he kept LSU to season lows and played UF close. Truth is LSU had over 500 yards of Offense and Trask was starting his first game. AU had two NFL players on the DL and some other future NFL talent. The last 3 years against Bama , he has given up over 1000 yards through the air.Steele was turning into his old Clemson self.
You lost your defensive personnel and push from last season. He had his guys up to speed remarkably fast this season in spite of it. You take the dynamic offenses of a Nick Marshall era and the barn is pushing for the playoff. The Bo Nix era, and then some, clearly showed that Gus lost his fastball, not his defense.

What I will never understand is why Gus didn't run the read option with Nix similar to what he did with Marshall. Marshall was probably the best fit for that offense that year

Steele made his money with the average teams in the SEC. Against the better teams, AU had to lean on the Offense to win. Steele was overrated , even among Auburn circles.
