There is really no such thing as a great defense in college football anymore.

Did you watch Bama's 11 man 5 star defense led by the "best" defensive coach in CFB get gashed by Oklahoma for 516 yards or Auburn for 400 yards or 628 yeards by Texas A and M?

How about FSU's 11 man 5 star defense giving up 449 yards of offense to Auburn?

Offense wins titles PERIOD!!!

You cannot stop the spread/read option in college football. Coaches do not have enough time to teach a style of defense that would work to a bunch of 18 year old kids in college.

I'm more worried about our offense which has sputtered as much as our defense in big games over the last 2 years. Our offensive tempo sucks and we tend to try and convert on alot of long low percentage passes.

Ever since Jimbo arrived, FSU has been using a quick strike ball control offense with high percentage throws. I can only dream we do the same thing or that getting rid of Stephen Morris will help accomplish the goal.

Apparently you don't know much about football cuz Defense Wins Championships as illustrated below:

Total Defenses of the BCS-era Champions
1998 Tennessee - 17th
1999 FSU - 19th
2000 OU - 8th
2001 Miami - 6th
2002 * - 23rd
2003 LSU - 1st
2004 USC - 6th
2005 Texas - 10th
2006 Florida - 6th
2007 LSU - 3rd
2008 Florida - 9th
2009 Alabama - 2nd
2010 Auburn - 60th
2011 Alabama - 1st
2012 Alabama - 5th
2013 - FSU - 3rd

Only once in the BCS era was there a team that didn't have a top 25 defense & win the Championship & that was 2010 Aubarn with Scam Newton at QB. If Offense wins Championships then why doesn't Oregon win the Championship every year? Oh that's right, Stanford with their DEFENSE shuts them down. Come back when you get a clue

Thanks to McGahee2theHouse for the chart from an older post

Stanford has held Oregon to 34 points in the last 8 quarters of football they've played, plus an overtime, and Oregon is one the best if not the best team at running the spread/read option. So your theory that it can't be stopped is bull****.

I am not allowed to call posters idiots or morons. No matter how stupid or moronic they are.
 
Thanks for the laugh. Didn't know we had our own comedy channel (thread) at canesinsight.
 
OP, you don't you think that Auburn having the best run game in the country and the 12th ranked scoring offense had anything to do with FSU giving up that yardage? Defense not being essential to win championships is the conclusion you draw?

That was the most yards they had given up all season though, plus they shut down Auburn in the 2nd half. Not to mention they had the #1 scoring D in the country.
 
The OP has never played a sport in his life. Ridiculous thread.

Do you attribute Mich State's success - including the Rose Bowl win - this year to its offense or defense?

I'll give you a hint; it was the defense.

We are so far away from resembling FSU or Bama on defense it is mind boggling. Booker T was probably closer to resembling those teams than we were this year. We will be lucky to win 6 games a year if we continue to play this type of D
 
Defense wins championships. Period. Canes teams from the 80's, 90's and early 2000's were what really made us the dominant program that many want to try to get back to.
