Bull. We competed with iowa. The problem with that game is what we are finding out now. That the scheme is bad against talented d regardless of the players. Lsu walked all over us but that 08 team was far more talented than that result they beat preseason 1 in uga and shoulda beat vt. Blew out miami. The reality is and i said we had bad games sure but our talent and physicality was much closer then than it is now and i will stick by it. I dont care what people said in 08 after a single loss to lsu. Look at that season. Look at the 06 roster. Look at the 04 roster. Go back to the oleary years. We were much more physically competitive than today. The gap we see today IS FOR SURE NEW. We havent had this gap since 1995.
Preach on, brother. This coach is the only coach in the last 30 years that will leave the talent level worse than he found it--other than Lewis.
