Hey Deuce,
Those are good points, and certainly reasons to for Ole Miss fans to be excited about football this year.
But the talent that you have on your team has to be validated by wins on the field. LSU has buttloads of talent, but could not translate that into wins last year.
And I'm posting the same old crap, because that crap is what I believe. I most certainly could be wrong. But it is what I believe.
I'm not attacking your program, calling your coach into question or doubting your ability to rise above your performances for the past 40+ years.
My point is that I don't believe that Ole Miss is as good as their record last year, and won't be as good as the expectations laid upon them this year.

We watched our talent get translated into wins last year. LSU had quarterback issues and questions going into last year, Ole Miss doesn't. LSU had a lot of holes to fill at DB, Ole Miss doesn't. The only parallel is both lost a great DT.

Why not? Beating Florida and Texas Tech last year were not small feats. Three losses between the two teams, and two of them came against Ole Miss. It at least says the group on the field can go toe to toe with the big boys. We also had some bad losses early on to teams we were obviously better than come the end of the season. You really think Wake Forest and Vanderbilt beat us at the end of the year? Doubtful. You got nothing but hope that Ole Miss won't be a good team next year.
