I had a good feeling about Ohio State in 08. You could tell they didn’t have the speed to keep up back then.

Bama 2012 I had a very bad feeling about.

I feel pretty good about this one.

I had a bad feeling about the mulligan. Most confident about this one. OSU was good also but we were coming off of two losses so anything could have happened. The offense makes me more relaxed.

I didn’t really feel overly confident in any game. But I thought we weren’t really underdogs in any game. I knew Oklahoma had a pretty impressive team in 2003. But, I remember that they either got smashed in the big 12 championship game or lost and then I thought they were beatable.

2007. When the teams were set, the next day I had this punk coworker from bama who pinned a $100 bill on the board in my office and said who wants some of this. I gladly took his money.

2020-loose and relaxed, laser focused just like for UGa and OU

2007- confident

2003-nervous, first natty game. knew we could win

2011- concerned. least confident of all. saw major issues the couple games before. knew if miles brought same shite we would lose. uneasiness not knowing what to expect. as expected miles shits bed.

Most confident for either Clemson or Ohio State. I felt/feel we’d beat both convincingly.

Next was Oklahoma. Knew we could win, still new kid on the block at the time so didn’t know what to expect.

Least confident was easily Bama. I thought we might have a puncher’s chance, but felt it was unlikely with the mulligan.

Most of us were not even thought of at that time.

2003 - little kid, didn’t quite get football; figured we’d win

2007 - knew we would win even down 10. Never a doubt.

2011 - knew we’d “lose” the farcical mulligan and didn’t care. We’d already had our perfect season and I wasn’t going to buy into that media-driven arse circus.

Nervously confident for all, but most confident this year. Least confident was definitely 2012. Other two were about the same - just knew our D would not let us lose. It is strange to have an offense good enough to know we will not be outscored. Every other championship level team we have had gave you the feeling that the D would make sure we won.

2007: even when we went down 0-10, I knew we’d blow OSU out. Our talent level was just ridiculous. What a fun game.

2003: We knew we could do it, but OU was the big bad blue blood. We punched them in the mouth and wore them down.

2019: the best offense we will face when compared to all of our NCG. also the best QB. A bit nervous, but not nearly as much as...

2011: frick. frick. frick. It wasn’t even that we couldn’t beat them—it’s that we ALREADY BEAT THEM. Beating a team like Bama twice in the same season is damn near impossible. When OkSU lost to Iowa State, I knew this wouldn’t end well. The team didn’t show up. The coaching wasn’t there. It was an embarrassment and probably the only reason I’m cautiously optimistic about 2020.

58: No idea.

Anyone who says they were confident going into the mulligan game is lying.
