I know for me personally, it's difficult to allow myself to itch with positivity too much. It's been so long since we have won 10 or more games, beaten Florida or Bama, beaten a top ranked team, and been relevant in general that I feel like a dog who has been kicked around a lot. Now I'm being told to come and let myself be petted because everything is alright and no one has proven that to me yet. If we make it to our open week with 2 losses or less then I'll let someone pet me. (I didn't set out to continue on with this dog analogy, but it seemed to work well.)
