[QUOTE="LibertyTurns, post: 354321, member: 789"] Hard to figure out GT’s psyche. Take the Orange Bowl for example. At the game you just knew we were going to ram the ball down Miss St’s throat every time we got it. You could feel it. Last year at the cesspool you could see it coming during the 94yd drive. Mutts were worried they were letting us back in the game and in the end we gave it to them in the end in glorious fashion. I mean how did Searcy get into the end zone???? Other times it seems we can’t get out of our own way. We demolished UT. There were probably 8-10 plays had they gone our way were knives in UT’s back. We went o’fer. At the U yesterday we get another 1st down on our last drive & we win. Lucky catch goes the wrong way. Kind of like that Pitt game in 2015 where the deflection changed momentum. Then the Pitt FG guy who completely sucks balls nails the longest FG ever at Grant Field. There’s a ton of examples both ways. I guess what I’m saying is we’re about 50-50 when it comes to nail biters. That makes us wildly susceptible to a wide range of season record outcomes. If we could figure “it” out and pick off 3 of 4, we’d be a perennial Top 25 team with an occasional chance at a really special season by our current standards. It’s probably no more than having 2-3 “better” plays per game to swing those marginal games in our favor. Could be enhanced pre-game scouting preparation, individual mental preparation, better conditioning, or improved recruiting/more quality depth to get us there or a combination of all. Fact of the matter is right now we are just missing that little extra which typically separates good teams from mediocre ones. [/QUOTE]
