CTG's defense has yet to shut down a half-decent offense this season. Everybody who can tell their right from their left has had no trouble putting points on the board against us.
Well that is a bit simplistic.
Florida with Demps back and killer Chris Rainey will put up points on anyone. They struggled the last three weeks without them. They did not struggle before Demps went down.
Kentucky has a dynamic offense and puts up big points.
Vandy was a shut out.
Tennessee was a good effort.
South Carolina and Arkansas were decent efforts muddles by a few blown coverages.
The defense has made considerable progress and is worlds better than what Martinez could provide. There is still work to be done, but switching from 4-3 to 3-4 was not going to happen smoothly and quickly.
The wheel route Demps scored on today was similar to the one Arkansas (IIRC) scored on earlier. Working those things out is a scheme issue as assignments on plays like that are usually different in a 3-4 from a 4-3.
I have way more faith in the defensive coaches than the offense or head coach.
