We want to be blinded by the NC lights

We can not be blinded by the NC bright lights. We cannot count on playing for the NC every year. I certainly hope it does not take another 40 years to play for the championship again but I for one certainly do not want to watch 40 years of non-competive non-conference games while hoping the stars align just right again. Also, any year that we have Vandy on the schedule we should absolutely schedule a team of national stature. Do you think we can always count on the East to provide us with a highly ranked opponent in the SEC championship game. Remember when the West provided 3 loss teams to the East including LSU. Had we had a better non-conference schedule last year there would not have been a split national championship. And yes, I believe we would have beat just about any good team on our schedule and I also agree that if we schedule these nationally respected teams early enough in the schedule we have much more to gain than lose.

I want to be just like Peabody ... crowing about our Championship trophies and showing everyone our NC trophy and title years and brasso-ing #3 even before the Orange Bowl game is played, #7 if you count all the polls
