Mullen won more SEC games than Franklin did in his 1st year. He even beat a ranked team. His biggest problem was a tough OOC schedule or we easily go 7-5.

Mullen walked into a much better situation with much more talent. Franklin walked into a Vandy job where they were coming off a 2-10 season with no depth or talent and won 6 games.

The ranked team you beat was #25 Ole Miss.. the last ranked team out there.

Mullen also inherited more talent. 08 MSU went 4-8 while '10 Vandy went 2-10.

I'll give you the tough OOC but assuming you keep 1 of GT or Houston (both of your OOC losses that year) on the schedule you go 6-6 at best.
