Chavis held ole miss to 7, bama to 10 in regulation, and Arkansas to 17 last year. It started of bad with welter, and had become great later in the year.

All 3 of those teams scored 30+ on Steele. Only 2 teams scored under 20 pts on Steele, MSU and A&M.

Chavis gave up more points in other SEC games.. had no impact plays.. and often blew games late.

LSU's defense was better yards wise because of inferior games.

Steele's defense was better vs Miss St and Auburn than a year prior. Steele's defense was better in the bowl game, given the competition. TT was #2 scoring offense in the NCAA. They got theirs but we made plays when needed.

Chavis left us pretty thin at linebacker and dline, but at least we are addressing it. I hope we can get a DT to secure that up

-But yes, Chavis wasn't perfect: pass rush and recruiting were becoming issues.
-But also, Steele is a bad DC IMO. I think if you close your eyes and throw a dart at a map you will likely find a better coordinator (not recruiter)

Both those teams had much better offenses last year. Also, Ole Miss, Bama and Arkansas scored on us at will this year. Last year, we gave up 44 points combined to those teams. They averaged 33 points a game on us this year.
