"And even if he won't be playing, our defense is light years beyond where it was a month ago."
True and happily so. Except so is the team we will be facing on Saturday.
Agree - had the current staff been in charge from August on, we'd likely be 6-1 right now, bowl eligible and having build unsustainable expectations in the media and the fan base. As it is, we have the two top teams in the nation ahead and both those games on the road plus two other quite good opponents in Dub and SC. Only Nebraska, following a bye week for us to rest and recover from the Indiana game, seems beatable. And of course SC is a rivalry game and there's always a chance there - especially if they get stuffed a couple more times and give up on their season once again....
