This is the first season I remember that we could play power football and never appear tired or out of shape. We beat teams down consistently and took Bama to the wire. Even our big guys held it together. The first couple of OU drives are the only ones I remember thinking the D looked gassed.

After all the “Strengh and Conditioning” threads of the past it was nice to NOT have that an underlying topic this season.

Probably helped on the injury front as well.

Don't think most realize how detrimental Mark Hocke was to the program. Hope Sinclair is here to stay for a long time.

frick that we beat them in every facet of the game and got hosed by the refs to put them back in it. A hosing of historic proportions.

Edit: let’s stop looking for the silver lining here. There’s not one to look for. This program has fricking arrived and we got shat on.
Continued edit: How bout this soft arse Bama style schedule we have upcoming? massachusetts in week 11? Yes please. WE WANT BAMA in the seccg.

Not looking for a silver lining or consolation prize here. Just noting the lack of concern in an area that was always a concern in the past.

I wholeheartedly agree that the SEC championship is effectively the first playoff game of 2018 and expect to see Bama in that game. LSU away will be tough but we have Auburn at home and should be fine with the other teams rebuilding. The only other concern I have is SC in Columbia because I know they’ll be tough.

Our S&C was shite under him. One of worst hires by Richt imo.

I would say when the S&C director is in over his head that would classify as being a detriment to the program. Don't know what else you're asking.

Now that the season is over over, is it safe to mention that we had practically ZERO season-ending injuries? Logic says we had to have one, but for the life of me, I can't think of who it would've been.

I'm assuming it was luck and S&C.

Probably S&C, Depth, Schedule and luck. Starters resting for most of the 4th quarter in a lot of our games plus actually having a 2 deep to keep people fresh played a large part in our ability to stay healthy.
