[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 372386, member: 282"] Leaving out special teams to make things easier, let’s look at this. Pre-UGA, our (F+) offense was #24 and our defense was #61. I think UGA was top 10 at both, so we were closer on offense, but probably not 38 points close—I think we would probably score 21 or 24, and I lean closer to 21. Our performances against Duke and UVA lean me in that direction. And most of that is on our defense. Earlier in the year, our defense was playing better, and in some games they showed up when our offense didn’t. Outside of VT, they’ve been AWOL for the last month+. Offense has checked out a lot too; second half of Duke was pretty sad. I wouldn’t say we’re “close”; to be a top 25 team, you usually have to be top 15 or so in either offense or defense and not bad in the other. After UGA, I expect us to drop lower. I saw us miss a bunch of reads all year long. If your QB is still missing a lot of reads in November, when is the lightbulb going to go off? We were missing blocks in the latter part of the season. Again, at this part of the season, you should know where you’re going and be able to get there. If an option team isn’t smooth in November, it’s not about to get a lot better. If you’re arguing that a unit that’s been a top 10 offense many times in the last decade is closer to getting it together than a defense that hasn’t been top 50 for most (all) of the last decade, I’ll concede that argument. My opinion is that offense, defense, and special teams all need a truckload of work in the offseason. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
