Look, that's not the point. It's like the rest of us are pointing out a huge car pile-up about to happen and the people driving are doing nothing to avoid it.

We've been through those years before... the only difference now is our offense scores 62 when our defense gives up a million yards of offense to a team one year removed from FCS.

A no defense team will not get through a season without getting bitten, more than once.

Maybe in all FBS - has there ever been a Top 20 ranked team with the worst ranked defense in the nation - apart from us?

Bingo. Some of the Pippy Longstockings/Little Orphan Annie "the sun will come out tomorrow" folks need to snap back to a little place I like to call reality... we're gonna get our asses kicked the next 2 weekends with a repeat of the last 3 consecutive performances.

Are you kidding, we may be the worst defense in the history of D-1 football. Where is our statistician, has there ever been a team to give up more yards in 10 games?

Re: The sky is not falling!
Lets just close our eyes and click our heels and maybe next week everything will be OK. Some of these posts are just incredible. I'll be honest, I've NEVER seen a defense as bad as this, and I've watched a lot of games. This has to be the worst defense statistically to ever set foot on a NCAA field.

Why start a positive thread, then berate someone for being positive?

I didn't berate him for being positive. I berated him for berating Tech fans.

Oh, ok. I thought when I was watching those highlights of her on ESPN they were doing a report and showing highlights of our defense.
Re: The sky is not falling!
We've had worse defenses. Problem is we lost those games. There was a time when every struggling offense would set records against us. It was pretty ugly.

Rice. ....Ugh.... The horror.
You are correct. The difference is now whenever the other team scores we just turn around and return the favor. Basically our offense is so good the other team has to score on basically every possession to beat us.
Re: The sky is not falling!
You have to think about our games like an NBA basketball game. It comes down to who can make a stop in the last few minutes. We need to take more chances on defense. So what if we give up some big plays they would have probably scored anyway. We need to sell out more and try to force turnovers. Play to your strengths.
