No one should be calling for Dabo's

or anyone else's head, but that does not mean that we should not question what the heck is wrong with our defense. It's brutal! And, unless we see improvement by the end of the year, then yes, it's fair to question Venables.

what's wrong with our defense?

It's called freshmen and sophomores. Beyond the front 7, our DBs just aren't good.
We got smacked around by a team with a lot more depth and experience at their house.
Are there really people calling for Dabo's head?

Its because of defense is young, folks. Why can't you people understnd that. You would think everyone would know that by now since they have been young for several years now.

there is only three seniors on that defense.. Goodman, Brewer and i think Williard.. that dline is full of sophomores and freshmen. linebackers are young Steward and Anthony sophomores blanks Freshman not enough experience..

some facts into the argument. People should constantly question everything. I think it is too early to dismiss BV's coaching; however, we must see an improvement as the year progresses. That doesn't mean we have to have Bama's D by the end of the year but I want to see some development.

Thanks Pride. Exactly, we don't need to see a Bama D

but goodness, give us something more than what we have seen the last two years. Other than two great games v. Va Tech, let's face it, a limited offense, our D has been downright brutal. Not good, not mediocre, not even below average...terrible. We have the right to question the improvement and, if we don't see any, we have the right to question our $800,000+ a year D coordinator.

You are so bad with facts

#4 is an OPINION on beatdowns. I certainly don't think we were beatdown tonight. #9 Is also strictly your OPINION. If you don't know what facts are then stop trying to list them. Also, people judge polls by the top 25 now, not the top 20 and have so for decades. You're only trying to use that stat to spin something in your favor so stop it!

Lets say we go 10-3 no div or ACC title, and lose to usc and

lose our bowl game. Dabo would be 1-4 vs usc and in bowl games.
Is Dabo's seat not hot going into 2013 with a loaded team if 2012 ends like above?
NO excuses in 2013. Morris' 3rd year, Venables' 2nd year, Boyd a SR, Sammy a JR, experience and depth at WR, OL, RB, and more depth and experience on D. And it will be year 5.5 for Dabo.
Do you not think 2013 will tell us if Dabo is truly a great coach or another TB? A nice guy that gets wins, but can't win the big ones and under achieves.

Posistion coaches need to be evaluated imo. Since Chris rumph left the dline hasnt been the same. BV is a solid coach but he needs to get his posistion coaches and we need some natural pass rushers. Nkemdiche, Adams, and the other dline on this class are must gets. I also noticed Clemson lbs avg 215-225 lbs which is rather small they are safety tweeners. Look at how big bama fsu lsu and any good defenses lbs are. Fsu's smallest lb was 235 lbs.
