| No, I don't think we are quite there yet. I think we're "good" but we are not elite like we were in the 90's. If our team was elite, we wouldn't be on here questioning whether or not we can win a national title. We would know we could. That's the difference.
I will say this, I really like this team's attitude! It seems to be about as unselfish a squad as I can remember in recent years. They all seem to be out there for the right reasons and they seem focused. I think we have the starting talent and the intangibles. I just think we lack the depth, plus a pretty brutal schedule to win it all this year. We will have to stay relatively injury free and have some luck on our side if we hope to compete for an SEC championship, let alone a national championship. |
