We all know about the 1997 Michigan team that had the #1 defense in America, that lead them to the national championship.

Here is another team that had a dominating defense, with a less than stellar offense who ended up running the table.


The power of a great defense can take you a long way in college football.

We all know how good this team can be if the offense improves, matures, and begins to gel.

How good can this team be if the young defense continues to grow, matures and gets even better?
