Dude, you have got to get a hold of yourself. Things could be much worse than winning only 10 games. Are the "positigers" happy about not winning the SEC or going to the BCS...? Hell no! But they are happy to enjoy another GREAT and successful season of watching their Tigers win and win a lot.

Do you not remember the 90's? Scraping by and hoping to just go to a bowl. Hoping Florida didn't beat us by 40. These are great times to be a Tiger and if you can't appreciate consistent success, please go cheer for the Yankees or Lakers or Patriots. You sound like a bandwagon fan anyway.

Go Tigers...It was a GREAT season

The top 6 teams in the SEC have a 30-0 record against the bottom 8 teams in the SEC. And those teams weren't good out of conference either, so it's not like the bottom 8 teams were still good, and the top 6 just much much better.

The bottom 8 teams notched losses against teams like Rutgers, ULM, Syracuse, Texas, and Northwestern. They were bad teams that equaled a free win on any good team's schedule.

You look at the average SEC team schedule and they played at least 3 bad OOC cupcakes, and 4 or 5 bad in conference opponents. You beat one or two good teams and you've got a 10 win season in "the hardest conference in college football".

So no, until Auburn and Tennessee and Arkansas, at minimum, stop being bottom-feeders it won't be that impressive to go 10-2 in the SEC without at least looking at who you had to beat to get there.

Is Georgia impressive for beating a worn-out Florida team and a bunch of teams that barely broke .500?
