Great post, Bees.

To me it's a matter of expectations and judging each unit against them.  Consensus was that the D would be worse than the past 2 seasons, and that we couldn't play the same style of ball to eek out low scoring, close wins as we had.  The O seemingly would be better, with an experienced QB, improving OL, and decent enough skill guys.

So while the O wasn't GRobian bad, it wasn't nearly good enough to compensate for an expected defensive deficiency.  And personally I'm pretty disappointed that our O was as blah as it was given that our HC has an offensive pedigree and was in yearr 3 of implementing his system.  I don't expect Oregon, but I expect more than what we got.

I don't care about assessing blame, because all 3 units were complicit, but in terms of expectations I was most disappointed with the O.

Actually, scratch that, most disappointing was the ST.  That was an absolute embarassment, amd probably is what has me most concerned about the competence of this staff.
