Last year, our Tigers were 8-0 with a difficult early schedule. This year, they are 7-1 with an easier path.
How would the 2012 Tigers have done against the 2011 brutal early schedule???

JJ & JL This years team with one of those qb's we'd blown out the teams we were supposed to...

Well, that wasn't the question.
I was thinking this years team might be 5-3 if they had to play last year's schedule.

Lee was much better than we gave him credit for. I hope he starts rocking in the NFL.

I was never a fan of JJ but his scrambling ability was clearly an asset that we don't have this year.

8-0. Our only loss this year is to a team that is better than every team we faced in the first 8 weeks last year.

This is what makes me believe we NEVER had an O-line built for pass protection. JJ's running ability and Lee's quick release masked the weakness of our O-line. We are built to run PERIOD. Les will never go to a pass dominate scheme so he has recruited and developed this line to run block. But to answer your question I think we would be about the same due to our Defensive Prowess.

Same record, less domination.

You have very high praise for Florida. I'm not buying the Gators yet. I doubt this year's Tigers would have beaten Oregon last year.
