Iwon't read the link, but I can say THEY didn't go undefeatedwith their schedule either.Incognegro said:I don't mind a little **** talking here and there, but they are absolutely insane. They go as far to the point in saying that there is NO WAY we'd go undefeated with their schedule as if their schedule is something to brag about. Truthfully, we wouldn't know since we're not going to have their schedule (thankfully)... but they talk about their competition as if it's a right to brag.
Size really isn't that smallRougeDawg said:Is the fact that a lot of their starting lineup would be on the shelf for the remainder of the season come week 7 or 8 in the SEC because of their overall lack of size combined with less overall speed. Their D Lineman are just slightly larger than most SEC LB's. Their total team size would be exploited even by the worst SEC teams. SEC defensive player size is even noticeably different than every big 12 team, barring Oklahoma and sometimes Texas. I've been on the sidelines for SEC, Big 12 and CUSA games and seen all conferences up close.
The only times they ever competed with superior competition in OOC was when Bower was there. He had some pretty good defenses that laid the wood.
