MS7, I'll get smoked for this, but I think the schedule set up well for you cats....

1 - caught LSU early in BR, they've no QB, & no HC... squeaked it out
2 - got up 21-0 on TOs to AU at home in the first nine minutes... squeaked it out

I think it was around this time yall hit #1.... not sure...

3 - struggled at UK... squeaked it out
4 - struggled vs AR... squeaked it out
5 - avoided a bad loss at Bammer... didn't hurt yall much...
6 - smoked Vandy
7 - caught "Good Bo"... like Bammer did....

I think it was a combination of:
a) poor secondary
b) questionable D subs in certain situations
c) no "game breaker" at RB
d) no dominating OL
e) poor ST
f) inconsistent passing game
g) hard headed coaching

just my thoughts...
