I would much rather play and lose to a good or ranked opponent than beat up on an inferior opponent like Charlotte or SC State. Those types of games do not have the same kind of feel that playing against a conference opponent does and to me those types of games feel very lack luster and i personally get very little satisfaction no matter how well we play. I get super hyped and excited when we have something on the line and play the Florida's and Tennessee's of the world. it's meaningful and exciting. The atmosphere, environment and excitement around conference games make me so look forward to game day. It's been a while since we have had a real credible football team to speak of, let alone one that has been ranked. I look forward to the days when we become relevant again. Looking forward to the Kentucky game and so hoping that we have a competitive game. One where we are still in the game at the start of the 4th quarter with an opportunity to actually win it. Can anyone else relate? Thoughts....
