Now we are seeing teams like Florida and LSU, long known for having great defenses, start to morph into big 12 squads?
Bama starting to look that way too
Why is this happening?
Georgia and Clemson and ND are the exception

The spread offense happened.
Also, targeting penalty to a lesser extent.

Florida was inevitable with Dan Mullen taking the helm.
LSU is a worn out discussion.
Bama struggling so much on D is the million dollar question.

less practice and live contact tackling leading up to season
no easy warm up games to correct mistakes, thrown right into fire

New players learning the Defense for LSU.
Mond/TAMU had nothing to lose and a ‘raucous’ home crowd.
Bama, no idea
Nobody else played defense before tbf.
I chalk it to not enough practice time

Great defenses are a rarity now. That goes for both the NFL and CFB.

We have a defense bitch. You’ll see it first hand when we play.

Not necessarily a "cream rises to the top" situation, but I would wager that the most talented kids end up playing offense when they're young and that is rearing its head in college

Bama D is getting pwned

Same as NFL. If you touch a QB or WR you get penalized.

Spread offense
Rules in favor of offense
Poor tackling. Rarely any defender wraps up anymore. The open field tackle attempt with the back of shoulder is very popular.

1. Modern Offensive philosophy has taken over. Many old school coaches were stuck in the stone age and not taking advantage of new ideas and new rules, those coaches are all gone.
2. The rule changes over the past 20 years, especially the past 10 years, have made it harder to play aggressive defense.
Defenses have not caught up to modern offensive philosophy and if the rules don't change to help out the D, it probably never will.
