re: Weak September games are OK with me.

It's true we collapsed last season after a 4-0 start, but that was apparent to anyone who was watching the first game. I knew Perilloux(sp?) getting kicked off was a costly but necessary decision in order for the team to move on. After watching the season opener I knew immediately the defense and especially the secondary was full of holes. After watching Alabama's season opener I thought to myself- damn, they look like us last year. I still think losing Perilloux was the right decision and makes Miles a stronger, more honorable coach. What it didn't do was inspire the team and the cookie crumbled slowly. But all those doubts disappeared during the Chik-Fil-A bowl. It's a different team now. There are still work areas but the confidence is back. Jordan Jefferson will inspire the team along with Scott,Shepard, Dickson, and others who now know what they are capable of and remember what a strong, bullheaded, never-say-die Tiger team feels like again. Give us four supposedly easy games to gain stride and confidence and improve on your weaknesses? You betcha. I'm saying 11-1 this year. I think we going to Roar. And I love Coach Miles. Proud of him and his geeky slap-mouth style. Under-rated coach and man.
