I'll say they are and anything less than a SEC championship appearance will be a huge let down.
That should be the expectation, but we still have Les and Cam running the offense.
I am excited about the defense, but we had an incredible defense in 2011 and Les still managed to screw it up.
At this point, I feel better than a few weeks ago. Cautiously optimistic.

He screwed it up to the tune of 13-0 and a seccg. Only to be fricked over by an unprecedented intradivisional NCG matchup against the best coach in the history of college football, the likes of which will never again be seen.

Shut the frick up NoName.
Just don't forget, we still have to get past Bama. That's the obstacle every year.

He won the sec, you responded to a post saying anything less than an sec championship would be a let down.

The problem was that we had to play Bama twice which was like overkill. I mean nobody since has held teams under an average of 10 points per game (Bama 8.2). Nobody since has been able to hold teams under and average of 250 yards per game (Bama 183.6). I mean I don't think you guys realize just how ridiculous that 2011 Bama defense was...and we had to play it TWICE!!!! And while the site I was using doesn't go back further than 2008, no other team has allowed under 9 ppg or 217 yards per game.
Other thing of note:
We didn't have anybody close to a Fournette or Guice at RB. We ran by committe and had 2836 yards, 4.8 ypc, 35 TDs in 14 games. This year we had 3086 yards, 6.10 ypc, and 36 TDs in 12 games.
2011 (14 games) - 5 RBs accounted for 471 car 2471 yards (5.25 ypc) 31 TDs
2015 (12 games) - 2 RBs 351 car 2389 yards (6.8 ypc) 25 TDs, 3 RBs 411 car 2685 yards (6.53 ypc) 29 TDs
