| FTBL 7 wins will not cut it and I'll tell you why

My opinion is that seven wins will have more a more impact on this year's recruiting than our ability because of preseason ranking to win a NC in the next two years. It doesn't matter where you are ranked in the preseason if you go undefeated (unless your Auburn, of course :D ). Actually, I think Florida's blow out win, followed up by LSU's win over Ohio State has pretty much sealed the fate of the SEC Champion including Auburn in the BCS barring a unforeseen blow out loss of a SEC Champion.

YES WE HAVE TURNED THE CORNER WITH REGARD TO HOW HIGH SCHOOLERS IN ALABAMA VIEW THE UNIVERSITY. HOWEVER IF WE EXPECT TO BE A TRUE CONTENDER FOR THE NC IN THE NEXT TWO YEARS, WE CAN NOT HAVE ANOTHER 7 WIN SEASON THIS YEAR. IN THE CASE OF THE POLLS AND MEDIA, PERCEPTION IS REALITY. TO COMPETE WITH 1 LOSS OHIO ST OR MICHIGAN OR USC OR WHAT OTHER NAME SCHOOL WHO PLAY WEEK SCHEDULES, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A GOOD SPOT IN THE POLLS TO START THE YEAR. IT IS SCARY TO THINK ABOUT BUT WE NEED A GOOD YEAR TO MAKE US NATIONALLY TALKED ABOUT AGAIN.THE MEDIA WOULD HELP. THE ONLY WAY TO WIN THEM OVER IS TO WIN AROUND NINE GAMES. THEN WITH OUR RECRUITING AND RESULTS ON THE FIELD WE WILL TRULY HAVE A SHOT AT A NC BECAUSE WE WOULD BE IN STRIKING DISTANCE IN THE EARLY POLLS. (EXAMPLE: SEE OHIO ST)

A lot of people tend to forget the 05 season. I remember us being ranked 3rd in the nation and on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Where were we ranked prior to that season?

It can still be done.
