Sure do. I remember being excited after a few decent wins to look at the rankings just waiting on them to be released.


And then we'd promptly lose the very next game and drop back out.


We'd been doing that forever ... and we continued to do it under Holtz and Spurrier until just recently.

I remember those days too ... heck, 1969 and we go into the Peach Bowl to face Bowden and Carlen as a big favorite and a chance to finish in the Top 20 in both the AP and UPI polls ... and we fell on our faces.

But I do believe we've gotten over the proverbial hump in that regard. At least I am hoping so.
