2016 - Beat the leg humpers and went to the SECCG.
2016 wins.
Evidently you understood it.Congratulations, we have a winner for the most passive-aggressive post of 2018.

We took about 8 steps forward on special teams, 6 steps forward on offense, and 3 steps backwards on defense. The problems on defense aren't Mullen's fault. That's the result from mac's poor recruiting.
That said, what is similar to 2016 is the concern for defensive recruiting. Mullen still has time to improve this, but time is limited and the needs are glaring.
It seemed like the special teams weren't that great when we played the non-cupcake teams but I haven't really looked at all the game breakdowns on that. We kind of did like Mullen did at Miss State and got most of the big plays/blocks etc. against the really weak teams. It seemed like under Meyer we were doing that stuff against the better teams also.
That's a numbers view. Not inaccurate but not enough to paint the whole picture.Pros
What he's done with Franks is a miracle. Same with the OL.
Special teams is back
Cons:
Recruiting is average for our standards
The run defense is #74.
