We're now #10 in the country in November. Nobody except the Tiger homers thought we would be any good this year. The coaches have done a pretty good job as a whole with this team. Yesterday was a stinker but that Bama team is one of the best college football teams ever. Move on and get behind these Tigers. A Suger Bowl berth is in it's grasp. Who would have thought that possible in July.

But why should we settle for 10-2 if the team showed they had enough to be at least 11-1

Don’t blame the Bama game for 2 losses.

This is still a decent football team with a new year's day bowl on the line. Nobody thought LSU would be anywhere near here right now but they hate the coaches so bad that they've seen their chance and by God they're going to take it.

The low expectations were set by Orgeron last year. That's not how this works. LOL

Ok, so we should lower our expectations because of the media's opinion? Yeah that makes sense...

Because that is this team. Beats the hell out of being 7-5 or 8-4 which is what I expected this season. Albeit the UF loss seems inexcusable to me.

Not really, it's still not a playoff record which is what should be the goal and expectation.

The incompetence of the offensive staff is the problem. With an actual competent OC this team is at worse 11-1

Not lowered expectations, Tigerfrombama. This team wasn't highly regarded by most in the college football world. These Tigers are pretty good and over achieving compared to unbiased preseason opinions. Rome wasn't built in a day nor was that Bama team we faced yesterday.

So in the pre-season you pick this team to be 11-1?
