There is alot of reasons we will be really good this year and am not going to get into all of that. The main thing to remember about " talent" level is, the 08 and 09 seasons, we fielded the least talented teams this decade. Our 05 and 06 classes were not top ten at all. We are definitely on the up swing and will do really well this year. Btw, we could have just as easily been 11-1 instead of 8-4. We have been improving every year since 08 too, and this is with nothing but defense.

This is true. Les in his 1st year in 05 didn't have a typical top 10 class due to the timing of NS leaving. In both the 08 and 09 seasons, the 05 class could have potentially provided leadership needed to win close games. All classes have been top 10 outside of 05, but the last 3 classes have been dynamite top to bottom.
I like the direction of the program and the fact is CLM will always be considered lucky until he wins another title. I think he is a great coach. You can't get lucky for 10 straight Years as a HC with a 80% win clip at LSU and 70% overall. If you compare those numbers to NS, who the media deifies, they are spot on with each other.

I agree about the 08 and 09 teams. Maybe "slightly" less talented. But it would have been nice to see Perrilloux not mess up and in action those two years. Some of our defensive woes in those two years were because of bad situations it was put in with bad field position after INT's, etc.
