@BFW@rowtydepawl76@mjme34@HuskyH52692 11 wins, SECCG berth, make playoffs and win a game. Thats not a disappointing season. There were disappointing aspects (run game, blowout Ls), but as a whole it was an improvement and a successful year 2. It’s only disappointing if you expect Saban.
@DontrellChillis I was so pissed I couldn’t go to 07 LSU. Dad and uncle didn’t think it was a good idea to bring an 8 year old to Saban’s first game against LSU. So, I got to go to ULM 2 weeks later 😂
@thejivy@JA_Mitch@NextRoundLive You could argue Najee Harris had a better college career than Ingram plus the 3 AU backs and he’s at 50. More TDs, better yards per carry. Was on 2 title teams. Ingram does have the trump card with the heisman and national title, though.
@BradPowers7 Well, that’s what I think haha but wanted to get your gauge. I mean that middle stretch includes 2 playoff teams and trips to Neyland and Death Valley so 1-3 is certainly possible. Didn’t know if you thought trips to Kentucky, State or Vandy were more tricky than they appear.
@HarperNation24@MichaelRee66357@g000b33zyyy Collin also wasn’t playing in Nate Oats offense/spacing and was a freshman. He was a better shooter than Philon as a freshman. Baron has better feel and instincts but Sexton was a much better athlete. Neck and neck for me.
@joecorona_real I completely agree that we will be much better defensively and rebounding (even tho Biz has improved). I do worry about Philon being our only real ball handler/someone who can win off the bounce. Allen can do it some, and Trelly can in pinches- but it’s a real concern now.
@JoylessFox@DGiddensBurner Past 3 years- S16, F4 & E8. That’s better than Duke, Kansas, UNC, Kentucky & Zona in the same timespan. F4 being the expectation every year is crazy because the blue bloods can’t even do that. Be in the mix every year, compete for SEC and make 2nd weekend and see what happens.
@AcuffMUSE The bad thing is I actually think Pope has done a decent coaching job with a mediocre roster but the problem is he built the roster. He’s had some bad injury luck too.
@AcuffMUSE Oats gets at least an A- if Cal does. A&M and Vandy had good years but A+ is a little much IMO. Bump Barnes to the B range and give Golden an A+. I agree from Moser down.
