[QUOTE="jeffgt14, post: 89011, member: 1059"] I don't think our offense needs to be perfect but they need to sure as hell need to be better than they were Saturday. These threads about our defense are ridiculous right now. Our defense gave up 1 score on a full field possession and it was due to the stupid pass interference call on Milton. And it still took a 3rd and 28 conversion to do so because our DB fell down. Here's a list of Duke's scoring drives... 75 yd TD drive (Special Teams offsides extended drive) 82 yd TD drive (Milton PI penalty, the only FULL drive I really count) 46 yd TD drive (Laskey fumble) 50 yd FG drive (Missed a long FG) 23 yd TD drive (JT Interception) Now I know there's no excuse to give up points just because something bad happens and the other team has a short field but when you're offense/special teams is setting up drives like this, you should pretty much expect to give up about 31 points. Our defense is far from elite but you take away the essentially 4 turnovers from that game and we hold Duke to under 20 and win. Our offense flat out lost that game and we should probably spend our time complaining about that instead of our defense who probably played one of their best games of the year Saturday outside of VT.
