and we thought this year's score was high, UGA vs UT this year may break a combined 130 in points this year with our rent-a-defense and UT's, well, new situation

ETA: and now we get to argue with UT fans about what horror they just brought upon themselves like the Barn and Oklahoma before them

Remember when the 3 Auburn DBs all ran into each other trying to tackle Amari Cooper? Good times.

1/4 Willie is a terrible DC and secondary coach. If you think "3rd and Chavis" is bad, wait and see 1/4 Willie install his "bend but not break" prevent D. If you thought UT's secondary was bad this year, just wait until WM coaches up your players.

He did damn well at UGA, but you have to remember who was on his defense. With the likes of David Pollack, Odell Thurman, Thomas Davis, Quentin Moses, etc. who couldn't coach that defense? His next two jobs (Atlanta and Auburn) his defense wasn't that great. He seems to have lost his touch.

You can't judge BVG off of last year. He can't scheme against the spread. That's for sure.

When AU hired Van Gorder, I have to admit, I thought it was a really good hire. But they sucked so hard this year, it really makes me wonder. Who knows - maybe Chizik didn't give him full control of the Defense. Or maybe he sucks now. I dunno.

I'd be more worried about Senor Score than BVG though, honestly. Your opponent could run an all-midget WR corps and get absolutely torched. Fact.

UGA's mediocrity started after his departure. their D was never the same

DL: Steve Stripling (Cincinnati DL coach and interim HC)

never heard of him

LB: John Jancek (Cincinnati DC and LB Coach)
Secondary: Willie Martinez (Auburn Secondary)

I remember how awful UGA's D was under these guys, especially in 2009
