This is actually quite common with fans, too. In fact, LSU fans are often guilty of this phenomenon. Offense is sexy. Defense, not so much. Remember Texas Tech being so highly ranked a few years back under Leach? Sexy pick. Then Ole Miss wiped the floor with them in the Cotton Bowl. Remember UO being favored over us to start the season? Yeah. :rolleye33: The more things change, the more they stay the same. Defense wins championships. Having a strong running game and being able to control the clock neutralizes these high powered offenses, too. We has it.
