In year 3 of Petersen we played Bama in the CFP. We measured up against them with a D good enough to beat them but with an O not there. OL too young and not physical enough. QB1 arm not strong enough to make all the throws against an elite D. We know where improve. The path to victory was narrow and the two TOs made the path disappear. Allen called UW soft, but I disagree. We had fight to the finish and hurt several of their players. Minkah wouldn't have passed NFL concussion protocol. Our team had pride.

So fuck moral victories. Rather, we know where to improve to beat the elite. We're close but need more work. We'll play SC in the p12 championship game next year. Book it.

    Is this the equivalent of winning a RB in year 3?

    No. We didn't win. There's room for improvement starting with the OC, QB and OL. But we measured the fuck up

    If we got to play in it... unfortunately we were too good for that. Dang, why couldn't we be just a little worse?

    Winning is always better than losing, but for this group they're ahead of schedule and they know what it takes now. And they responded. They didn't quit. I think this team will murder teams next year.

    I think we'd beat PSU, but still winning >>>> losing.
    It definitely feels better but it isn't always better.

    I'm not sure we'll get popped. Ross looked average at best against Bama. Buddha and SMFJ are gone. Anyone else?

    Fuck anyone who doesn't think this is an amazing year.

    From 6-6 to the CFB Playoff. That's fucking rad.
    Damn straight. On top of that, we have, quality-wise, our best recruining class in the internet TBS ranking ever coming in. Very bright future
    Would be nice to get some Bama-level linemen. But, yeah.

    Need big, strong, fast, agile, mean OL

    Need big, fast, physical WR that can win high-end 1 on 1 battles

    Need a TE that can stretch the middle of the field and be a reliable source of throws over the short to intermediate middle

    Need a QB that can stand tall, step into throws, deliver darts with power and accuracy

    We've got a good formula on the defensive side of the ball and lauded the defensive recruiting over the past couple of years ...

    We've seen some recent improvements on the offensive side of the ball but it is still behind that of the defensive side of the ball ... WR recruiting is on the upswing ... Sirmon will be the next generation QB we need to take the next step forward there ... OL recruiting is still a massive question mark as to whether we can get the quality needed to compete at the national level ...

    And let's be honest, everything tonight offensive starts with how our OL matched up with their DL
    Go fuck yourself

    I think this was better for the program. Pete now knows what he needs to compete on the national level. He will grow from this and adapt to it.
