I can promise you this. The D will be much improved in the next game. How do I know. Because there is only one direction they can go!

I think Chief has to simplify the defense. Obviously, no one in the secondary knows their assignments. They have too many reads an keys so the players aren't sure what to do. Give them simple reads. Some of the complex offenses might trip them up but you would have less plays with receivers wide open.

This game showed me that the O is as good as advertised. They struggled with the run some, but kept working it until it was getting a good 3-4 yards a carry - enough to keep the D honest.
The D needs work, but should get better as the season progresses. UGA has a pretty good O, so we'll have to see how bad that made them look.

A 1-loss SEC Champ would still be first in line assuming only there is only 1 or no undefeated teams.
Both UGA and LSU would still need help though.
Oregon, Stanford, Ohio State, Clemson. Need 3 of those 4 to go down sometime this season.

It is better to lose early in the season. Not only am I excited to see the how the defense responds going forward, but I'm excited to see the offense get even better. They have to continue to play the season out and hope someone trips down the line . It's not over for us.

I'm hoping we can get a 2008 Florida thing going on. Mett is having the same type of great season that Tebow had (albeit not as crazy) and they lost 31-30 at Ole Miss. We need to have that same type of epiphany and play our arse off.

I agree with most of what has been posted here. No reason to give up on the season but also some concern about the defense.
What does give me hope is that we can score on anyone and once we get a good lead on most teams, the defense will play much better. Pressure on their offense to throw will allow more blitzing and opportunity for turnovers.
All in all

Watching that defense, I don't know how it can be "fixed". There was no pass rush. You can't fix that it is a physical attribute we are lacking.
