Trying to understand the defense?

The genesis for this question/discussion actually came through something post Northern Iowa. Although the defense did not play well against Illinois, that isn't where this originated, but it seems just as appropriate to get a reading/understanding.

I am pretty much an avowed Frost hater, who doesn't want to credit him for much. Sure enough, talk of how good the defense had been with Rhule came up and someone, who obviously isn't as hung up on disliking Frost, pointed out that these were all Frosts guys.

It led me to looking up more and something I didn't realize was that most of the teams we played last year just didn't have good offenses (I focused on FBS scoring and team offense).

So, I just don't know how good the defense actually is. Do we have a top 15 type defense based on talent, or have we been overachieving in the Rhule/White era? Or is it what we would have expected considering the opposition to date and maybe we (me) has overblown how good the defense actually is?
