    This is a young football team, folks.

    They are learning a LOT of great lessons about what it takes to win.

    They are not giving up.

    They are trusting in each other.

    Still tons of mistakes, lots of penalties and turnovers, and they're still winning.

    LSU not only beat Florida in the Swamp, they DOMINATED a Florida team that had something to prove. Handed them 21 points on a platter and STILL beat them.

    Big games on the horizon, still lots of mistakes to get after.

    But I really like the trajectory.

    I think we're going to see a couple of awesome performances from this team before the season is over.

    Not only is it good for them, it is necessary if they are going to continue on the path they are on. It's how you deal with adversity that is the character of the team. We dealt with it pretty well tonight.

    Great post Bandit.

    We've played 3 ranked teams - UNC, WVU and Florida and beaten them all.

    We've won on the road and at a neutral site.

    Our schedule sets up real nice down the stretch....

    And last, we're 4-0 in SEC play.

    I hope the offense is starting to gel and believe in themselves. So far that was the missing link in this team.
