Defensive play the last 3 games is what annoys me the most.

Not sure about defense vs. Moo U, but against Ole Miss and Arky (and aTM), we were up against very good passing attacks. People used to last year's lockdown corners and terrific safeties freeing up the LBs for more aggressive pass rushing and run defenses were "annoyed" this year when the less experienced (and arguably less talented) corners and safeties heeded help that took away from the pass rush and line of scrimmage defense, yielding more passing yards and more running yards between the 30 yard lines (and more scoring). But the coaching staff had to make a choice. Give the DBs some help, or risk getting torched by Manziel, Wallace and Wilson.
