Probably because in the last 4 years they've played in three huge bowl games. The Orange, The BCS Championship, and then the Rose.

In the Orange Bowl year, they lost to an unranked 7-5 NC State team. They went 1-1 against the only two ranked teams they played, and that win was against an overrated Clemson team that went 0-2 against the only two ranked teams on their schedule. Clemson did beat LSU that year, but that's not saying much.

In the championship and Rose Bowl years, he had Winston. Can't say much about the championship year other than the schedule was on the soft side. The Rose Bowl year was also a soft schedule (sounds like a theme), and they still struggled against nearly every opponent.

And last year, same old shite. Soft schedule, 1-2 vs ranked teams.


I just don't see the appeal.

Being 10-3 last year they had to settle for the Peach.

You mean had to settle for getting their asses kicked in the Peach?
