The SEC grind is why Bobby Bowden picked the ACC over the SEC when he decided to join a conference. Having mabe one difficult conference game a yr made it easy for him to save his starters from getting pounded for 4 quarters every wk. With scores like 45-43 wkend wk out, it seems like the Big 12 is a flag football league. Here, the 4th quarter is gut check time as you have been pounded on, non stop for the first 3 quarters & you have to have the depth & talent to survive.

Petrino's greatest strength was his attention to detail. But he was also VERY stubborn, controlling, and domineering from what I can surmise. I've seen him run Broderick Green up the middle for no gain more times than one could imagine, and I think his teams played so tight that it cost us games(Sugar Bowl,) and damned-near cost us games we should have won handily( TAMU, Vandy, Ole Miss last year.)
He is a great coach and will be missed for sure. But if we catch fire, I think we could win-out. If we stub our toes early though, I think we could easily lose 4 or even 5 games.
