so expecting 3 or more losses is ACCEPTABLE?? maybe back in 95-96, when i was fricking ECSTATIC that we would even make the Independence Bowl….
times have changed for a majority of the fan base…. elite seasons are expected…. i know we cannot and will not win a National Championship every year, but i do expect to have a shot at the SEC every year, with our talent alone
Why do you have to expect the same record every year? Either 13-1 or 9-3 every year is stupid. If you expect to win 12-13 games every year, you are setting yourself up for disappointment, and quite frankly are diminishing the accomplishment of going 13-1. Sometimes circumstances intervene, injuries mount, you have a year like 2006 where we played 4 teams that were ranked in the top 10 at some point on the road, other teams are good. You have to accept that.
The program is in a position to compete every year and is competing every year. We have 1 loss right now, just like in 2003 and just like 2006, 2008 Florida and 2011 Alabama. That doesn't mean a 9-3 season is not possible. If you start freaking out and firing coaches because of a less than stellar season in the toughest conference in CFB, you will be back to the 90's a lot faster.

Dont try to talk sense here. It doesnt work, and the ones that agree with you already know it.

1.) i don't expect a "record", per se, but I do expect to be in the running for the SEC championship EVERY YEAR… at this point, that seems to be looking dim, to put it graciously….
2.) what number of games lost is a tolerable amount for you? 3? 4? we go to the Chik Fil A Bowl every year with that attitude, and when we start making more appearances there vs. NC's, while other SEC team who will remain nameless are making those NC's apperances, you'll see a "slipping" effect… won't be overnight, but it will start to happen…. you think we went through the early 90's out of chance???
3.) the "accomplishment" of 13-1 is my "expectation", since it means we won the SEC Championship…. but it's not looking very likely that we are going 13-1, nor that we will be playing for the SEC championship either, as of right now….
