But we're asking how do we break through the glass ceiling to be the 2nd or 3rd best team in the conference. By default, that means what do we need to be a playoff threat/NYD6 team.
    I agree. It's starting to happen because it's the next step for us. Eventually people will want more than just 6-8 wins and a bowl game and the bar will be raised to 8-10 and a NYD bowl game. It won't be easy but that's OK. Getting to that point where our expectations are raised is a good thing.

    Yep. We won a great game against LSU then our bubble was burst. I think we have to realize that we went 6-7 last year with some bad losses and a squeaker against the wrong Miami. Still got to build and take the next steps. I like the direction with what's going on in crootin' right now and that is key. All things considered, I can't complain too much about the current direction.
