When does "great offense" equal crappy defense?

Speaking of the Big XII, Baylor and North Carolina are putting on an epic display in the Russell Athletic Bowl. Baylor, essentially playing without a QB, has over 500 yards rushing and the 3rd quarter isn't over yet. But their defense is making sure Carolina stays in the game.

42-31 in the 3rd, and each team has a turnover inside the 10. Otherwise they'd each have another TD. But you know there are some kids out there just loving this "great offense". :excited:

Two of the poster children for this thread are playing in Tempe tonight, with predictable results.

Arizona State 37
Texas Tech 34

halftime :slappy:

Some will get :excited: about the winner of this shootout only to see the teams combine for double digit losses. That's what happens when you have a good offense and a garbage defense. 7-5 or 6-6, and a lower tier bowl game.

IMO, they should fire the DC... Use the money saved from the DC, and buy a real nice player, Cam Newton-style (or any of the stud players that went to Ole Miss the last few players). You don't have to play defense, and you have a big playmaker getting your school more exposure! Win-win!!!

Most of us saw this gem - Pitt 76, Syracuse 61 - but there was another display of "great offense" last Saturday between Middle Tennessee and Florida Atlantic.

MT 77
FAU 56

19 touchdowns - even the Arizona Rattlers and Philadelphia Soul couldn't keep up that pace. :roll1:

Oklahoma gave up 854 yards to Texas-fucking-Tech and some people are still trying to vouch for them as a cfp contender. Not to mention tcu, texas, wvu, and of course us running roughshod over their defense. Seriously espn, fuck off with that nonsense
