[QUOTE="Madmaxvol, post: 335510, member: 3585"] UT's defense was horrible by the end of the year last year. Not sure how much was from the coaching change...but am pretty sure that a lot was due to late injuries. UT's rush defense was particularly bad...but it didn't start out that way. UT's d-line was decimated by the Texas A&M game, and it went down hill from there. Here is how each game played out for rushing success: [U]Opponent - Rushing yds vs UT - Season Average Rushing Yards (delta)[/U] Appalachian State - 184 yds - 250.9 avg (66.9 below average) Virginia Tech - 189 yds - 183 avg (6 above average) Ohio - 88 yds - 168 avg (80 below average) Florida - 106 yds - 128 avg (22 below average) Georgia - 181 yds - 191 avg (10 below average) aTm - 353 yds - 212 avg (141 above average) Bama - 458 yds - 245 avg (213 above average) South Carolina - 158 yds - 134 avg (24 above average) Tn Tech - 60 yds - 121 average (60 below average) Kentucky - 443 yds - 234 avg (209 above average) Missouri - 420 yds - 205 avg (215 above average) Vanderbilt - 192 yds - 164 avg (28 above average) Nebraska - 61 - 169 avg (108 below average) Note how every team was below or right at their average until Texas A&M. After that, the wheels came off with two exceptions...an FCS school...and Vanderbilt (who shredded UT for 400+ passing yards). Once UT's defense got healthy for the bowl game, they turned things back around. I'm not saying that UT had a great defense last year...but they weren't horrible until around game 6, when the injury bug bit them big time.
