A team that has the best defensive player in the country, a top 10 QB, and a top 10 RB.

We beat them with freshmen and walkons and a first year head coach.

Let that sink in. Imagine the Vols under CBJ once he has his players.

We're going to be truly "back" very, very soon.

This was a big win, but Shaw isn't a top ten quarterback. Not gettong Davis still hurts though.

He is. No INTs until game 7, has big time scrambling ability, and has an arm to rival Aaron Murray.

They are very few teams in the country that wouldn't trade their QBs for him.

Shaw is legit....haters gonna hate though....gotta give the staff credit....they have out coached Richt and Spurrier in back to back games with WAY less talent but physical well schemed game plans!

yeah, USCe is a legit top-tier team with lots of talent all over the roster. They earned a quality win today.

Our program can only go up. The perennial top teams in the S.E.C. are about to slip either alot or a little bit. Once " O bama", LSU, Florida, UGA have a slight dip in their program, we will be in striking distance to over take them.

Those teams can't stay on top forever. At some point, they will slip to a losing record, or slip in the polls to the 20's, rather than remain in the top 10 or top 15. We need to position ourselves to be in striking distance once they slip.

All we need is for Florida to hire another Ron Zook. Alabama to get another Freddy Kitchen or Mike DuBose or Mike Shula. We need LSU to hire another Gerry DiNardo....

22-4 as a starter in the sec. I'd say that's a top 10 QB. Plus I would even consider m Davis as the second best RB in the sec, top 5 in the country.

How lucky did we get when we got Butch?

Very fortunate that Butch is our coach!

How about all the Dave Hart haters give him his propers on hiring Butch? Looks to me like not only is Butch the right guy, but he and all the "bald Big East white guys" he brought with him can recruit AND coach.

The SEC East and West is just going to beat each other up and you will have some 9 and 3 and even 8 and 4 teams that are top 10 teams that wont be there because we play each other every week.

This occurred to me today. Not a great scenario.

Not to argue, but how are any of these guys not better than Shaw. I'm not saying hhe's not good, but not top 10 in my opinion. Still a great win.

Mariota
Murray
Bridgewater
Mettenberger

Hundley
Winston
