re: Kinda wish we didnt have high expectations.

The program pretty much had high expectations to a particular level every season since 2001. The highest levels I can recall were '02- '07 and '10 through 13. Those years produced 4 West crowns, 3 SEC crowns and 2 national titles. In fact, you can make the case that the extremely high expectations nationally in 2007 from the beginning of the season were part of the reason the Tigers stayed close enough to the top to vault into the title picture even after two losses. If the team performs at a high level, then high expectations could give them a leg up with the voters and panels when all things seem equal. Here's to high expectations.
