I agree about that. But what gave me hope was that with all the injuries we had we only lost to UGA by 3. We only lost to USC by 5. We held LSU to 17 and lost by 11. We lost to a Vandy team that beat UGA. And in a small part of my mind I knew that if we didn't have those injuries we cover the UGA 3 the USC 3 and probably the LSU 11 and we definitely don't lose to GA Southern.
I think a lot of those teams just played us conservatively, to be honest, thinking that we couldn't produce a last minute drive to win the games. They knew we'd just run out the clock until the end and beat us coaching, flat out.
I wasn't with Muschamp after the loss to Louisville (but that, even in hindsight, was a bit premature) because I felt like he didn't have what it takes to be an HC.
The only way he really wins is if he has better talent, and in the SEC you need to figure out other ways -- intelligence, deception, all forms of strategy.
And Muschamp doesn't seem to possess that. Guys with much less talent seem to have no problem beating us, and I can't think that's anything more than just pisspoor coaching.

I understand what you are saying. My response is regardless of anything, you still need hope. I'm with you. I rather have hope that something changes regardless of reality than be miserable blaming others about what is wrong, and waiting for another fk up to happen.
I rather look at the glass half full, rather than half empty because otherwise, I would be a miserable individual. I can see that Muschamp isn't a great coach, and that he has made many horrible mistakes, but if he isn't fired, I rather hope he could actually change and get better.
I don't like Jeff playing, but since we are still going to see more of him, I rather hope that he could become mediocre rather than better for the other team.
I'm not crazy about our 2007 secondary- but I hope they will grow up and continue to improve.
I'm truly hoping that we will win out and get it together, otherwise, why would I watch any more football? Yes it hurts when my hopes and dreams don't pan out, but I redirect them to new expectations to keep my sanity. What would hurt more is to fester in the blame game, and berate constantly like many other "negative nellies" do.
I'm not blind, I can see what is wrong, but I rather keep my hopes alive otherwise I would just concentrate on basketball from now on. I did that last year, and I could do it again. I always want to be happy regardless. I love the Gators, and I will follow them as long as it doesn't make me miserable. There is still hope of saving the season.
Go Gators!
