They are getting better, but we've also played some pretty bad teams the past two weeks.

Overall great play, but killer instinct needs be instilled. Too many blown opportunities in the 4th quarter against Aggy and in the second half against SCar to really stick the dagger in for the kill. They did eventually, but could have done it sooner.

Late game red zone offense could use some improvement.

Special teams...wtf.

But the defense has made a turn around. Those guys were flying around all game. Only that stupid arse fake punt for a TD was given up.

If they keep playing this way they’ll have a shot to win out but fsu will be a tall test. The only team on both offense and defense on our schedule who has been statistically better than fsu is Georgia.

Seems like instead of gradual improvement over the season we’ve seen significant growth the last couple of weeks. It’s almost like a different team.

I wonder what changed?

Think it’s a combination of a little bit of everything. I do think we’re getting better, and I think guys are buying in; it also seems like Napier may have cut some negative energy from the locker room. Yes, we’ve played some poor teams, but we looked pretty good against those poor teams. I feel like we beat them the way we should have.

If we can take care of Vandy, I think there’s a good boost of confidence and some excitement around the FSU game. Anything can happen in a rivalry game. Ending the regular season on a 4 game win streak and crushing the girls schools’ dreams would be a heck of a way to end year 1 under BN, especially given the rollercoaster ride it’s been.

Everything from the Georgia game on is building towards the 7-4 vs. 8-3 matchup against FSU.

8-4 in year 1, and beating FSU in their "up" year would be huge for perception. Ending with 4 straight wins, including a road win over a ranked rival, is huge for the growth of the program. FSU going 8-4 in the ACC in their up year would also create some major question marks going into year 4 of the Norvell era, too.

Unless South Carolina pulls really big upset against Tennessee or Clemson Utah will be the only team we beat this season that will have a winning regular season record if we don't beat FSU.
