Who is celebrating moral victories? Finding improvements and positives is not moral victories. Key used a Saban line earlier this year: “Never waste a failure.” Extrapolating positives in a losing effort is not celebrating a moral victory. Neither is celebrating 6 wins and a bowl game for the first time in 5 years. Losing a close game to UGA and winning 6 regular season games are not the highest goals that anybody within the program or as a fan aspires to achieve every year. But they are signs of improvement. If Key continues to only win 6 games and lose to UGA the “moral victories” will stop, fast.Yes, there is some improvement which is good. Coach 404 did so much damage to the program that any kind of improvement will be greatly celebrated. But Key has to find a way to improve the D-line and stop the run. He has proven that he is serious and a good coach, unlike the previous guy. But me personally, I don't like moral victories like many people on here do. Which is fine. It's been a rough few years being a Tech football fan.
Just because you (and others) come on here and pretend like losing the game is unacceptable no matter the fashion it was lost in, or 6 wins isn’t enough, or any other number of quips; doesn’t mean you have higher expectations than anyone else on here. It just means you’re not willing to see the forest for the trees. You’re lost in your expectations and fail to see the progress that has been made. Nobody here is happy to lose.
