Counting to Ten While many of our hopes of a National championship may have been shattered tonight, I have come to the realization that I am spoiled ass rotten. Not so much of winning, because we know we can't win them all. But because I miss the confident feeling of knowing our defense is gonna win 90% of their battles. I gotta say the effort was there. Those guys played balls out. So balls out that they could not control themselves from jumping offsides 15 times. I don't remember seeing a missed tackle until the 3rd quarter. And even then, it was because they had no legs left, but were still giving it their all. Just bad scheme. Ego lost this game. Pellini believes in his defense so much he doesn't know when it is costing us the game. I was about to jump through the TV when he jumped Prudes ass for a guy catching a 5 yard pass in front of him. He had just motioned to Prude to back off the line, then jumps him because he is 15 yards off the ball and doesn't have the speed to stop a 5 yard out. Who the hell does? Still a lot of season to go. With some gut checks by our coaches, we have the talent to get it together and make a run at the SEC championship. Just think our new goal can be to get to the Sugar Bowl in our own damn stadium. Gonna take a whole lot of balls bouncing our way to do it though.
