1 word, coaching.
Do we put most of that blame on Collins, Cabral or the S&C program back in 2010?

Tackling will be whomever decided how important it is to practice, if that was up to Hawk or he let Collins decide for the defense. How important was it preached by Cabral?
One huge difference I have seen in our defense this year is fewer arm tackles and better tackling where players are breaking down and lining up to tackle someone with better form.
The 2010 team with this coaching staff would have had a legit shot at a bowl. That team had more mature talent but significantly underperformed due to coaching.
I do think that Woods is a better QB but this team lacks anything resembling a running game.
Speedy used to frustrate me with his lack of top end speed, he'd break through a hole then get caught. What I wouldn't give right now to have a Speedy who could actually make a cut and hit a hole!

I'd take the 2013 TEAM in heartbeat. Key word "team"

This. Record may not end up as pretty due to the fact 2010 had an easier schedule, but I will take HCMM and this team any day. 2010 was gutless outside of the Georgia game and showing some fight late under Cabral against ISU and KSU. It was inexcusable for 2010 to let both Texas Tech and Baylor get out of Folsom with wins after we gave up leads late, and then of course there was the Cal and Kansas debacles. This team has already shown it can handle adversity far greater than the 2010 squad that folded at the slightest sign of it. I'll take Connor Wood and his upside over the on-going Hawkins/Hansen nightmare. This team has a good deal more fight in it and is a good deal hungrier.
WAY too early to tell. I hope that at the end of the season I can say 2013 hands down, but if you're truly talking about the better team, I don't think you can make an accurate comparison after two games. Especially considering the two games we've played are against the worst teams we'll see all year.
Ha! After last year, the fact we are even putting it up for discussion is encouraging! Who would have guessed? May the pondering be even more challenging post this weekend! Solid play against the team which provided an epic beat down on us last year, would significantly enhance this debate!

beware the habu
2010 seems to be the more talented squad. But if they played ..... my money is on 2013.
