We'll see how it plays out- and it probably won't work out. At any rate I wouldn't be surprised if we finish strong like we did in 2013. And that may mean the Gator Bowl.Quote:

Sometimes you have to look in the mirror admit your wrong and go back to the basics. Shumpert block and find your TB. It's time to run!

No way to play call well when you're line can't block, are just very limited offensively this year bc of it.
Rankin not being ready has been a huge blowQuote:

And Chris Jones also played a damn good game..... His role at DT calling for double teams opened up the edges. The defense played well but we need faster players at certain positions.Quote:

Another glaring issue we have is lack of speed especially on offense, we are way to slow in trying to keep pace with teams like A&M who has blazing speed. To me that was so obvious on both sides of the ball. The Aggies are very young and will get better.Quote:

Bottom line, the Aggies were more talented and the better team, there is nothing Mullen could have done to change the outcome of the game, our players were in position to make players and didn't. 2 fumbles, missed TD pass, poor punting which we never had field position all night.
Agree. We are no where near being a BCS team or any Jan 1st bowl. People need to go ahead and adjust to a lower tier bowl mindset.Quote:
