The D has been great.

He also literally just got here.

Auburn didn't score a TD.

1. "great"??? No
2. He's been here since January, so all spring, all fall camp, and now 4 games. Coaches can get things moving quickly.
3. True, but Auburn gained almost 400 yards on us, and they have a terrible offense. Holding them to FGs was good, but we gave up far too many yards to a very mediocre offense.

Yes, our total D is now ranked 25, but we've played an FCS team, and three D-I teams that are ranked 31, 79, and 94 (out of 127) in total offense.

Our D is ok, but not earth-shattering. The meat of our schedule lies ahead.
