Guys, step away from the kool-aid. Tennessee got DRILLED by Georgia AT HOME and laid a complete stinker in the Peach Bowl against Clemson. There's no way they would've beaten USC "8 out of 10" times. Maybe once or twice, like they did with Miami. Florida faded away toward the end of the season and Georgia's offensive line wouldn't have faired that well against USC's D-Line. I'd put Florida at 1-2 out of 10 and UGA at 3-4 out of 10. And I do love how we all bash Auburn for going 8-5 (with 3 of those losses coming to Top 5 teams), while LSU went 8-5 in 2002 and that was "just a rebuilding year."
Well, you answered your own statement right there, 2003 was obviously not a rebuilding year for Auburn, at least not going into it. They were preseason pick for a national championship! Does that sound like a rebuilding year to you? That's a straight up disappointment.
