Are we lucky or good?

I'm not sure what to make of this team's ability to overcome adversity. 5 turnovers last week and 2 dropped passes in the end zone this week and we still win. On the one hand, we should never put ourselves in that situation. On the other, we still won the 2 of the 3 biggest games on our schedule to this point. Are we lucky, good, or both? I say, it is what it is. Karma dictates it may catch up to us later in the year (ala Ark game in '02 after Bluegrass Miracle), but who cares right now? Ride the wave and see where it takes us.

 

A little bit of both!

 

We are good enough that we can win with no luck at all.. but not good enough to put anyone away..

 

No luck? I'm glad that Bowe can catch a ball with his legs if not with his hands. If he and Doucet could catch with their hands we would be very good.

 

Both, just like the 2003 was.

 

Karma may also dictate that this team is destined to go to the SEC Champ. Game, regardless of the penalties and dropped passes :wink: Oops, I shouldn't be thinking too far ahead............one game at a time......slow but steady....

I may be too positive; this game shows that the team are capable of correcting the huge mistakes earlier in the season. So, there is definitely hope to keep on getting better.

It's amazing how lucky good teams are.

 

I'll have to say it's both.

The ole' expression "that's the way the ball bounces" or "if the ball bounces our way just a few times" describes nothing but luck.

But, there is no doubt you have a good team. You are definitely in top of the SEC right now.

When you have a team miss 5 FG's in a ball game, that has luck written all over it.

 

Good teams are usually also those that find or make their luck.

 

I think we're just that good. If LSu catches the touchdown passes and Auburn makes all the FG, we still win.
