What are we remembering here?

In 2016 we had beaten 2 ranked teams (vt and florida) , beaten georgia, lost a classic to tam.

Lost to usc, then came back and beat the crap put of a cup cake the beat UK and Mizzu before losing to vandy and winning a bowl game.

What are we talking about?

When we had Dobbs at QB, started the season 5-0 where we had beaten both UF & UGA, that team and the year before could have competed for a NC with an actual high caliber coaching staff running things IMO.

Downward spiral began 2017 UMASS. Thats where everyone that was not insane said "Whoa..wait a sec!"...and then UTEP in 2018 is where most not insane people said "Yep, shes done"..

We are so damn negative. I see Steady improvement and think we have a football mastermind as our head coach. Who really believes our record would be too much different then it is at this point. Also, compare the GA game from this year and last year. We are becoming a team. Now wait till Pruitt gets his players!

At South Carolina.
It started game #1 vs App State imo. Poor, soft play, ton of penalties and undisciplined play until the second half of vs Florida. Had momentum the next couple games, then got punked vs Alabama, beaten up by SCar and finally, embarrassed by Vandy.

So, imho, the entire 2016 season was the beginning of the downturn, with only the second half vs Florida, the hail Mary miracle win vs Georgia and most of the game vs TAM being the highlights of a very disappointing season.

Why exactly must we remember this?
Right...we've got enough crap we can remember. Tons of games we'd like to forget. I'd rather start remembering some new stuff. UF, who pretty much everyone said before the UT/UF game was even on talent, has managed to elevate their play. Why must our improvement always be so incremental.

You mean it gets worse?!
GBO!!
When in the hell do we get off the mat? This decade? The next? I wont give up on UT but the headaches and acid reflux in my throat are getting tiresome.

I just think this season as a whole will be true bottom. After we finish this October gauntlet, if we are healthy, then we steal an SEC win and 2017 officially goes down as the worst of all time.

If we suffer too many injuries, then we probably don’t get that SEC win and 2018 is bottom.

I feel sorry for the kids in school and the players who dont know our great years. They were toddlers in 1998
