Can We Play That Well Two Weeks In a Row?

A great team is the perfect mixture of maturity and talent in the right places. If you look at the 2014 team as a model example, We had excellent maturity and intelligence at the 2 key positions on the field. QB (Dak) and LB (Bennie Brown). We had excellent talent on the DL (Chris Jones), and an excellent run-blocking O-Line. This team is the same formula. QB (Nick), LB (Dez), DL Talent (Simmons), and so far an excellent run-blocking O-Line. We do lack in talent in comparison to 2014 at WR, but we have better overall Defensive talent in 2017. We now have a HC who is experienced in winning big time games.

Yes, we can do it again because excellence is contagious. Last Saturday our team got a taste of what excellence feels like.

I'd like to point out that in 2014 we lacked maturity at RB and it cost us a safety in the biggest game. JRob's head got too big and it became about him. Also, Geoff Collins got butt hurt and decided to ditch the team for his next opportunity. I don't see any of that happening with this squad and these coaches.

I'm not saying we are going undefeated or winning the NC but after 9 years I feel like Mullen has finally gotten the right defensive coaches to go with his offense.
