How come no one appreciates a good defensive game anymore?

Seriously, Bama and LSU's offenses would put 30+ on either Stanford or Okla St. I think either would probably put up over 40 on either team. Yet because each offense faced two of the best defenses in the history of college football and the offenses played it close to the vest it is considered it an ugly game and they were not really talking about the missed FGs. These defenses were incredible and I think you will see how incredible they are in the next 4-5 years when you see how many players in this game will be playing on Sundays. I think this was a defensive classic.
