[QUOTE="Legal Jacket, post: 169991, member: 601"] The difference is our players had a ton of experience. Look at the combined number of games by Days, Laskey, Waller, Smelter (to a lesser extent, though his natural ability is probably unmatched by our current guys), Hill, Bostic, Perkins, Zenon, Andrews. All of those guys are gone. We may be replacing them with "like" ranked players, but the experience difference is night and day. Its the experience, to me, that is the most important in bridging the talent gaps between us and some of the other teams. I certainly can say we are overrated. We are replacing our seniors from last year with literally zero experience. If the season started today, we'd return 1 catch at WR and 0 carries at BB. Outside of Snoddy, we have no AB experience either. First of all, there aren't many schools that have that issue, if any. Second, they are filling those holes with much better talent - at least on paper. In a vacuum, you have to assume those teams would be better than us on paper, which is all we can look for at this point. [/QUOTE]
