It appeared the offense and defense switched somewhere at the end of the year. At the beginning of the season we were all D. At the end we were almost all O.

Thoughts?

I disagree. There wasn't a single game where I felt the O outpeformed the D and this is including the Cotton Bowl. The loss to Auburn might have been a push.

A lot of the "O" in the Cotton Bowl happened because of turnovers caused by your defense. You guys definitely still have a better defense than offense, just that the offense started to get respectable there at the end.

It made things more interesting that A&M couldn't stop a wet fart from breaking for a 5 yard gain.

Cotton Bowl and Ole Miss. 2 of our last 3 games. And the defense didn't play all that great at Arkansas either. And if you don't include the Cotton Bowl, I'm not sure what to tell you. We had 2 true freshmen make great individual plays on defense, but overall, the unit was pretty bad.

You can throw the Auburn game in there, too. LSU had trouble stopping Cam and Co., but the offense blew several great chances in the 3rd period, and that was the difference in that game.
