THAT FOLKS, IS THE GREGG WILLIAMS D!!!

We've had our hiccups, but our D is the best it's been since the early 90's. I'm not complaining about Gregg Williams and his aggressive style one bit. As said, we live by the sword and we die by it. We've gone 24-8 the last 2 years with a bowl win. No complaints here.
