Auburn should not have scored that many points against a "great defense" last night. Are teams noticing things on film that they can exploit? Or are we just missing tackles behind the line? I swear, it feels like our defense looks great on 1 play, average on the next, and then downright awful on the next? Why are there such drastic swings? Is it Bateman's calling decisions? Do we not just play a base defense where we're flexible and can adjust to a run or a pass? So sick of feeling like every play is going to go for a homerun against us...

Poor tackling and bad eye discipline. Add DBs that don't cover well and you get what we saw last night.

Poor coaching. Look what they did when down 21 and they had to get more aggressive.

Whiffing on tackles left and right. Honestly I think tackling alone accounts for a big chunk of the gap between early season and current defense performance.

To start game, lack of effort.
To end game, poor coaching and soft coverage, playing not to lose.
Middle of game, fine.

A&M ranks #56 nationally in total defense yards per game

A&M ranks #38 in scoring defense points per game

A&M ranks #41 in rush defense yards per game

A&M ranks #81 in pass defense yards per game

it's just a very, very average defense

We haven't changed our defensive scheme all season, and teams have schemed against us…. So we're facing the stretch

We also have undersized LB unit

Piss poor coaching
