re: AU will finish 10-2 or 7-5

Because we have a staff who knows how to develop players and make adjustments in-game, we are getting better at each position and as a team going down the stretch. However, I’m not sure if we have the talent level that A&M, and certainly Bama, have. We will not be blown out in either game, and we will be very competitive to the wire.

The difference between Gus and Harsin is that when Gus had a “system” advantage and players to fit that, we were in ball games, but once a coach adjusted we had no answer. Harsin takes what he has and game plans each week, meanwhile during the week he is working on player development in a meritocracy with no fair-haired favoritism.

Not all four and five star athletes can deal with a meritocracy like that, but the recruits that we do get will be the right ones. Now, can we get those guys who have the talent to compete with Georgia and Bama? We will see.
