I am not sure there is a whole lot of regret in not getting Smart.
Gus started strong then really struggled, but this year was a positive sign.
And as far as beating Alabama, I think he is the only HC in the SEC right now to have done this, right? Although maybe Smart gets a chance if things work out in January.
Next year I would favor Alabama, but if he wins, I think he will be 50/50 against the best coach in the SEC in at least a generation.
The recruiting Smart is doing is amazing. Simply amazing, but I think we should probably hold off on crowning him until he at least has a few more years.

The LSU loss was inexplicable but Gus is usually good for one of those a year. Otherwise he lost to the defending champs on the road and knocked off two #1 teams back-to-back. The SECCG is just a tough oe because it sort of reminded me of LSU in 2011......just tough to repeat those performances against a good team, especially after a brutal Iron Bowl. I don't read much into that loss
Is that really a bad year?
