As do I. 4th or 5th wouldn't disappoint me though.

I kind of doubt it but who knows?

FTR, this is a meaningless accomplishment. I'd rather have the players this staff wants than one that people who aren't in their league as far as talent evaluation have rated highly.

After watching this season and what they've done with the current team... I'm satisfied that a number 10 recruiting class will produce as much as a #1 class with other staffs (even respected ones like Bama/UF).

I think the staff wants the recognition because it helps build your next class as well.

Guys we are after different people because we have a different scheme, but in lots of ways if we can replicate what Saban did we will be thrilled. We will not quit if we lose in the SECCG and embarrass our conference in a bowl game, but other than that we would be happy to do what he did in the first few years with recruiting.

Delusional LSU fans think they are one of the Big 3 teams in the SEC this year (but struggled against Miss ST. and only beat GA with ref help).

Meanwhile, do the Bear and Elvis chat over coffee? Oh, wait, no, they would have to be in the same place.

Florida struggled with MSU as well.

That game shocked me but I did watch the whole thing. Refs jobbed Ole Miss numerous times and Snead threw a pick six that was off the hands off his TE. Lots and lots and lots of breaks for Auburn. I did not see anything in the game that made me think they do not collapse and end up with 7 wins. I was wrong about Ole Miss though.

Outback bowl. I can see a scenario where Alabama wins the SECCG and LSU is at the Cap One and we end up in the Cotton. I would love to play a Big 12 team that is rated highly.

I also massively overestimated the ACC I think this year and would not mind playing any of their teams in a bowl matchup.
