Georgia is yesterday, MSU is tomorrow, we need to look ahead. I just don't like all the "at-a-boys" and slaps on the back while MSU looms on the horizon. This is a bear trap waiting to happen if we don't take care of business. I believe Saban has got them in the right frame of mind, but they're youth and anythings possible.
I think when a team wins a big game they are allowed to get some pats on the back. What seperates a good team from a great team is winning the next week after a big game. This is a huge test for the Tigers and I think coach will have our boys ready to go.
What you say is correct...for the team. We're just the fans. We don't have to prepare for the next game and since Moo State fans are staying away in droves, we only have last week to talk about.
Saban has a 24 hour rule where the players are allowed 24 hours after a game to celebrate a win or reflect upon a loss. We are all fans and not players so the 24 hour rule dosen't apply to us. Nothing we say or do in our enthusiam about the big win over UGA or our speculation about future games down the road or talking about a posible national championship will have any bearing whatsoever Saturday night in StarkVegas. If the players are taking the same attitude we are they could be in for a rude awakening but I think that Nick will have them zoned in to the job at hand. As for myself I'm excited that the Tigers are coming off a huge win with a solid #7 ranking and there is no team on the schedule that LSU should be an underdog to. I am excited to be able to consider national championship posibilities and the posible scenarios leading up to that. Maybe my bubble will be burst sometime during this season but right now I'm enjoying the hell out of it.
