Offense may get the blame, but D fails Gamecocks again

Gamecock defense helpless to
 stop Ky's Kemp.

It was ugly. And there will likely not be any real relief until all the defensive coaches can be replaced.
Competent coaching will help, but it's left to be seen how poorly the personnel problems are. Will it take years to undo the damage done by the mistakes made in recruiting?
In the post-game, Coach Steve Spurrier alluded to another double-digit lead-loss in the fourth quarter.
The Gamecock defense blew it again, to lose to Kentucky 45-38.
A deflection and INT charged to SC QB Dylan Thompson, will likely have the critics blaming the offense. And another INT late sealed the deal. But the offense should have never been put in such desperate situations.
For the second week in a row, the SC defense was shredded. For anyone watching the game, it was obvious there was no chance the gamecock D could stop Kentucky back Jo-Jo Kemp.
Everyone knew Kemp would get the ball, but the defense was helpless.
Arm tackling, bad angles, and just being weak were characteristics of the Gamecocks on defense.
It was like the Brad Scott days, or the Lou Holtz teams at the worst.
No one knew tat the D had been propped up by talent. Now the talent is gone, and the ugly truth is exposed.
