Yes. They are. They lost very little from possibly the best team in the country last year. (At least one of the top 4 or 5 best teams) It is the first week. South Carolina will not be as bad as they looked last night, either.


Did you actually watch the game? And yes they did lose a lot from last year. They lost six or seven players from their defense from last year. The announcers were talking about it the whole game.

That well coached Minnesota team was 8-5 last year. It is one thing to be rusty the first game. That is not that was.

They were clearly rusty. Boykin missed 2 wide open receivers for touchdowns.

It's pointless to go back and forth about this now, let's just see how it plays out. TCU, IMO, is going to be right there in the hunt in December.

Sarcasm noted. They were well-coached but their talent level is not high. I'm sure Alcorn State was well-coached too. Does that mean Tech is #1?

Mope. Didn't need to.

Defense is NOT what made them tough last year. Offense was and they return 10 starters from their offense.

Ten starters get welcomed back to the nation's fourth ranked offense including star performer Trevone Boykin behind center.

Really? So, not other team that turned out to be very, very good has ever struggled in their first game of the year? Why don't we revisit this at the end of the year and see who is right? if they don't make the 4 team playoff, I will apologize and admit you are wrong. If I am right, I won't ask you to do anything. No lose situation for you. Deal?
