All trolling aside, the truth lies in the middle as usual.
MO hasn't beaten anyone of note except GA. GA was not close to full strength. That has to be recognized. The W in the record book looks great and there will be no asterisk but one has to thoughtfully recognize the circumstances of the game.
If we beat Bama in the SECCG and they were down a ton of injuries to key players I would enjoy the win but certainly would not be claiming we were the greatest team ever in any serious fashion. Did I mention I would enjoy the victory?
The truth is that many Tigers have gone all Arky over nothing of note really. Don't get me wrong, being 6 and 0 is a wonderful thing and how you got there in the end doesn't matter at the end of the day.
The other truth is that other fans see who MO has beaten, recognized the circumstances that helped to secure one of those wins and still comes away with doubt.
I'm not sure how that is hard to understand.

That's always the case though, if we beat Florida this weekend then you all will be a shite team that was decimated by injuries as well.
