9-3

I think our picks are almost identical.  I can't say I'd be terribly upset with 9-3.  Get a decent bowl game and win it.  That would be a good season.

Well, I think I came the closest with regards to the Alabama game (with regards to margin). I had it Alabama 31-3...ie. 28 points.

God I really missed EE breaking his arm to pat himself on the back and tell us how right he is on everything on every thread.....

And your post would be great if I ever said I was right on "everything". The fact that I was right about the margin, does NOT make me happy. To many of you drank way to much Kool aide after last years season, and let your enthusiasm over rule your football minds. 

I enjoy reading EE's stuff but there's always a tinge of 'I told you so'.  But the problem is, a lot of the 'I told you so' stuff is Captain Obvious or the rooster taking credit for the sunrise.  I had 'Bama tuning us up pretty good too (not quite this bad, but still) as did 4.8 MILLION other college football fans.  Not exactly breaking new ground here.  There's no accounting for the "kool-aid drinkers" (god, can we lose that over-used worn out term?) as they're usually the ones who run at severe extremes.  One week we're going to challenge for the NC and the next week we need to fire Hoke.  That'll never change.
