O was ranked in top third/quarter. D was not. Pretty easy to figure


out why we lost games. There were certaintly games when the offense under-performed and it cost us -- Wake Forest being the obvious example.

There really isn't another game you can point to and say, "The D performed at or above expectations and we lost because of the O."

We were -10 against Pitt but gave up like 45 points -- so it wouldn't have mattered.
Same with Clemson -- we were -10 but weren't going to win that game.

+16 v. NCSU
+16 v. UNC
+12 v. BC
+18 v. Louisville
+14 v. Liberty

Quite often the offense performed above the average opponent. Sometimes that was enough and sometimes it wasn't -- that's because the defense was bad until late in the season.
