As far as I'm concerned there is one stat that is imprortant when it comes to judging defense and that it points allowed! I don't care if an offense kicks our ass up one side and down the other, as long as we stiffen in the red zone or manage to get a turnover, mission accomplished! Of course we don't have a shut down defense, but how many college teams actually have one...maybe 6? Currently we rank 5th in conference and about 60th nationally in scoring defense at 23.3 ppg.
If we can stay at that number it would rank as the 2nd best scoring defense in 19 YEARS! Gross, but true. And this, of course, with an offense that is doing NO favors for the D.
