People were ready to cast off this team after Texas, and predicted 9-3 or even 8-4 following the USF game

It’s possible to acknowledge there’s areas that are struggling without abandoning hope entirely. Amazing to me that there’s still people out there thinking Milroe isn’t the answer, and I guarantee you if we lose to UGA, there’s a few “Bama fans” that will practically be celebrating “they were right” and Simpson should’ve been the guy all along

If he rises to the occasion, I'm not worried about any team we see in the CFB Playoffs. If he regresses, then he shows that he still needs further development. The most important thing that I personally want to see is sustained consistency. Consistency to not back down / regress against high level competition. Hopefully he shows that
