The D will be able to count on the O to win these next games for us while they figure out the right personnel and scheme moving forward.
And there is the issue that blows your entire argument apart. The first 4 games were meant to get the personnel and scheme issues figured out. If they haven't by now it is because we truly have big issues on defense. This coaches aren't stupid, they see the problems we are having on defense and have had from the first game. When teams like, TCU, UAB and Auburn are having running backs average over 4.5yds per carry, the coaches can see that. And unfortunately the talent on defense is just not what they are used to having or what the fans are used to seeing. Hopefully it is just an inexperience situation "which is what I am chalking it up to" but if it is not than we have bigger issues.
Look is UGA a great offense team? Yes they are. But if you want to be the best, you have to beat the best. If that game was played in Death Valley imo we win, but unfortunately it wasn't so we end up losing the game. If anyone thinks that A&M's offense is not as good as UGA's you have no clue what you are talking about. Also understand that playing Bama is going to be difficult anyone who thinks not, is on drugs.
Our defense needs to figure it out damn fast or a 9-3 season or worse is probably a hell of a lot more realistic than 10-2 or better.

Again, the same thing could have been said about our offense last year after the Auburn, Towson, and Florida games.
But then we started focusing on the run, and eventually the passing game came alive by the Bama game.
Things can be corrected during the season, but it takes time.
Now I don't think our D has the potential to become dominant the way our O did last year, but they could certainly improve, especially when they aren't playing one of the best offenses in the country.
I was one of the guys on here last week talking about the serious issues on D and that they weren't just "gassed because we went conservative".
Maybe it's just that my expectations were so low, but I did see some positive things from the D this week even though UGA played great and made plays. As someone else said, the front seven has issues and it's just kind of odd. Can't really figure out what is happening there, but trying to pressure Murray with just our front four was futile, and I think if Chavis gets creative with generating pass rush things could be solidified
