I remember the AF bowl game well. I absolutely remember us taking them very lightly, and all the talk of them being so small, we would just man-handle them. We went into that game thinking we could just show up.

Also, that was back when CJS was running things, and he didn't view that bowl as much more than a vacation for the kids.

3 of our 4 regular season losses that year were by 6 or fewer pts, 2 of those were to #6 UT & # 7 Bama. A 3rd loss was to #14 UF. We were very disappointed to be going to the Liberty, and played like it.
Ha, a coachless D in 2014 was better than what we had this year. Plus, who says we will adjust this year? We haven't adjusted to shit all season on D.

Bottom line...you're just throwing hope out there. My reasons are based on our history of not stopping the option. No DC begs to face the option. None. So not sure why our fans ignorantly would.
