I know RxCowboy loathes this, but who cares, he's the enemy until next week. This reminds me SO MUCH of the Boise State opener from 2005 it's not funny. Remember in 2005 how we had questions about our secondary, questions about our defensive coordinator, questions about the O-line, questions about the QB, and were going up against a \"dynamic\" offense from another conference and a lot of people predicted upset?
Remember in 2005 when everyone picked Florida or Tennessee (some trendies picked SCarolina) to go to Atlanta and lose the SEC to LSU? Wait...LS Who? JaMarcus WHO? I remember being the only person in the entire city of Charlotte -- including my family and every sports radio station talk show -- to pick the Dawgs to beat LSU. It wasn't the rabid fan in me being overly optimistic. I just knew we could take them.
Remember last year when Auburn was supposed to crush us in their house for the third straight year?
Remember how last year was supposed to be The Revenge of Reggie Ball, even before the Vandy and Kentucky losses?
Remember how Va Tech was supposed to murder us?
Remember in 1980 how Notre Dame was bigger, stronger, faster and better than our Dawgs?
Keep underestimating us. PLEASE count us out. PLEASE pick the Pokes. The more clippings on our bulletin board, the longer and sharper our Dawgs' teeth become.
GO DAWGS!!!!
