They finished their last 6 games 4-2, so slightly worse than their first 6 games

including a win over one of the worst Alabama teams ever.
ok?

ONLY because they knocked off Florida
but they did beat Florida. Had they not, they would have finished 8-4 and still in the top 25.

You must not have been there,
I was

because it was clear from the stands that the team was riding the high from that Florida win and STILL managed to lose two home games, *badly*.
Yeah, 9-3 teams aren't as good as 11-1 teams

lol, 1998 results clearly indicates otherwise.

If you want to believe all was peaches and cream and nothing was going wrong at the end of 1997, there's nothing I can do for you. I was there, and I REMEMBER that a lot of people were not happy and trouble was ALREADY brewing before 1997 ended. As I responded to the other poster, I remember this clearly, because I made the mistake of going to Florida in 1998, and was warned well before the season that I was making a mistake. Those warnings were clearly correct.

And btw, winning a game in Shreveport over a ND team that didn't give a shite and thought they didn't belong because they had JUST humiliated us in Tiger Stadium in November is nothing to get excited over (though it did help hide the slide LSU was already on).
