To think, had we keep our 1st string in, we could have scored about 70 on them...Tech definitely got bitch slaped back to Ruston tonight....
That's why everyone picked Auburn to beat us last week. Auburn can beat LESSER teams by 50 or 75 points then everyone thinks there on a roll, team playing best in all the country. You here about the running backs and all those yards..... Heck, The most they could score on us was 37 last year, I guess thats the best they could run up on us when we lost. Heck, All those people picked them number 1 this year? What do football people know that I don't. We had a better recruiting class last year and our defense is definitely better than theirs!
Sourdoughman - while there is obviously no question that we shouldn't have been a preseaon top 10 - I will still argue that it was warranted . . We finished the season 13-14 with victories against LSU, bama, Ole Miss, PSU and a loss to UGA . . and jsut missed beating UGA . . We returned EVERYONE . .so why expect a drop off? No one factored how HUGE the loss of Bobby Petrino (our old OC) would be . .IMHO that is the fundamental problem with our team this year . . most folks say that Petrino was such a professional, he made our other coaches that much better . . the #1 picks were a bit ridiculous, but that came from individual sports writers who can go out on a limb . . Also, keep in mind that 2 of the 'lesser' teams we beat before our loss to you were Top 10 teams . .

What I meant by that was if u look at your schedule you seem to score 45+ points against teams like Vandy, Western KY, Miss St, and the 73 against ULM, so it looks like you guys are sooo Good. I should've looked at your schedule before I posted. But I was wrong about one thing, I thought you guys were scoring more than you actually have in your wins against Lesser opponents, running up the score. Actually you haven't anymore than we have til the ULM game.
