re: From here on out what makes the season: successful, on par or a failure

12-0 or 11-1 is a success

10-2 or 9-3 is on par

But with how weak the SEC is 9-3 is a failure to me now.

Last season far outpaced expectations and maybe set us up for unrealistic expectations and disappointment.

I see 8 or 9 regular season wins being on par, as in on target for where this coaching staff started. Regardless of a weak or not SEC. There were challenges with this team that needed addressing over multiple year (2-3).

10 or more regular season wins is another successful season to me.

Bama and Georgia are the weakest they've been in years.

Both are still really good and have significantly better talent, particularly at the rotational positions and in depth.

Auburn, Tennessee and Florida are rebuilding

True but Freeze is an ace at doing more with less. Auburn does concern me a little.

A&M seems to be trending up but Jimbo can crap the bed with the best of them so we will see.

yeah, and so this is disappointing right now but we can still win the West on paper, what the team does from here on out will determine that.
