I hope we can handle the hype

Reminds me when our boy Phil Steele always used to pick us as his dark horse and we would choke.

The days of choking left us in 2010.

We haven't been fed in a long time.

I think the program is in a better place to handle it, having come through some humbling experiences. But I hope we can too.

Was thinking the same thing over in the realignment thread. It seemed every time we thought we ready to take the next step in the ol' BCS, the second half of conference play started and... well, we all know where that lead.

This is how I see it as well.  

The reason I feel that way is we really are a running team and a good one at that.  We also distribute the football better and it is not all on one guys shoulders. 

It seemed that once the light went on we were pretty tough to stop.

This is the year we will ring that bell. No doubts. Calling it: a top 25 finish.

I would be more confident if we had won the bowl game...

 

But I see no reason preventing us from winning the division.

No better than 7-5 this year.
