Once again proving how difficult it is to win in the West.

It is also now appearing like our rise to prominence last year changed the perception of the entire West last year because at one point all 7 teams were ranked at the same time. This year there has been more cannibalization but not much dropoff in overall play/talent, yet the perceptions is much different.


And as a caveat when was the last time we went 3-1 in SEC road games? We didn't even accomplish this feat last season.
