it just hurts how close this season was to being special. The ingredients were there. This is easily the most talented team we’ve had since 08/09. One of our deepest teams ever. The gap between where we are now and 11-1 with a rose bowl appearance is painfully small. We are a legitimate top 15-20 team by all metrics with a higher cieling. This is not the top 30ish team of 3 of the last 4 years where we had hoped to win the south and somehow scrape into a ny6. This year we were actually good enough to do it and it represented in a lot of ways. But when those 2 or 3 season defining moments showed up we didnt answer
maybe this will help us make those plays next season. We’ll find out in 12 months.
