Well, one thing I would keep in mind is that only the team really knows what is going on. Sports boards are incredible in the sheer amount of "fact" that gets produced off cherry picking data and then yelling assumptions over and over again.
It definitely looked like the offense got a spark from Treon coming in, but even if that is verifiable, who knows if it was as simple as it just liking Treon more? It could have been Driskel. It could be that they realized the coaches were willing to shake things up to win and found some motivation. It could have been a benchwarmer getting hit with a snowcone that we didn't see that pissed them off (hypothetical there). We really don't know.
As such, I won't guess one way or another, but I wouldn't assume that it is a given the whole team will be down over today's events. Their just turning it around after getting embarrassed at Bama and shut down through three quarter in Knoxville might have an effect all its own. We were done after LSU last year, but they found a way to bounce back after Bama this year. Wasn't pretty, but it still happened.
I'm looking forward to LSU just because I think this is the game where we might have a better idea of the way the season is going to go.
