What did we learn in week 3 of college football? Auburn Defense

One thing that I think we all learned in week 3 of college football is that Auburn really has a bad defense. They got run over by the Clemson Tigers in week 3 by giving up 619 total yards of offense and 38 points eventually losing the game by 14. Since Cam Newton and many other key offensive players left last year, the Auburn offense has not been too bad. But the defense on the other hand.......They are not coming around. In three games, Auburn has given up 121 points! They are lucky that they won two of those games. Now I know 121 points is a lot but the yards they have given up in two games is breathtaking. Remember this, in the first three weeks of the season Auburn has given up 1598 yards of offense! All together that is an average of 533 yards and 40 points per game. I think the lesson learned from this is that the Auburn offense is going to have to play phenomenal all year if they want a chance to win games.
