If you guys are as good as you've looked so far this season I don't care how much we've improved, we're toast. That being said... Rich Brooks has damned near worked a miracle in taking a historically unsuccessful UK football program made even worse by severe probationary penalties and won back to back bowl games crafting a hard hitting fundamentally sound brand of football. We have won 17 of our last 23 games which is not too shabby playing in what used to be the SEC's toughest division. :wink:
In other words, don't overlook us even if you may be good enough to do just that. LSU will tell you that we're no pushover. Any smart fan of college football understands that scholarship restrictions, shortened number of plays, better coaching and facilities at schools like UK mean that parity is more of a factor than ever. Despite that, like I said earlier... we may be toast.
I've always had a soft spot for the Tide as my uncle was Dean of the Poly-Sci department there for years so Alabama holds many warm memories of Thanksgivings and trips to Dreamland as well as great SEC basketball tournaments at the UAB civic center. Good luck to you all the rest of the season. Other than this weekend I'll be cheering for you heartily the rest of the year.
