re: Facts, Off. saved us vs UM, the D failed us vs Bama, give O "some" respect

The defense gave up 21 points against Bama. Yea, they gave them up in stupid ways, but giving up 21 points to the #1 team in the country isn't too bad. The problem is that the offense can't be counted on to put up 21 points in any game.

The offense put up a ton of yards against Bama but could not translate them into points. If we could convert in the red zone the defense would have been in a position to lose on a last minute TD.

If you're counting on your defense to hold every team to 14 points then you're going to be disappointed. Your offense NEEDS to be able to put up points consistently. 17 points a game isn't going to cut it.
