Best Defensive performance since?

@Perd Hapley brought up a good point. Arkansas never really threatened to score. It was a dominant performance defensively.

We essentially pitched a shutout against a team that has had some very tough losses but is a decent team offensively. The offense wasn't great but part of that to me was the gameplan/playcalling.

So with that being said - that might be our best defensive performance since...

Iowa or Arkansas in 2018. Still can't believe we lost to a team that had less than 200 yards of total offense and negative yards rushing.

2013 Egg Bowl. Only TD we allowed was on a blocked punt (sorry Swede).

Honorable mention to 2017 Charleston Southern. It was an FCS opponent but we only allowed 33 total yards.

2018 defense was consistently dominant but I can’t pick out a single game over others. Maybe the Auburn game?
