Arguing with a gamecock friend yesterday about this since he said their 2011 D was better than our 2014. They were pretty stacked on D that year but still have to say the 2014 tops it considering we were #1 defense. I looked it up that year and theirs finished #7 but they were defintely stacked. What was said was that we don't play anyone and that UGA dropped 45 on us (even they they dropped 42 on them in 2011 and gave up 37 to ECU)

SCar D line:
Clowney - #1 in the draft
M Ingram - first rounder starting for Chargers
Devin Tayor - drafted, Lions
Kelcy Quarles - FA, Colts
