Let’s be Real

More Top 25-30.... We're a solid 9-3 team in a normal season which is a big improvement. Our fan base just has unrealistic expectations. If we go 8-3 or 9-2 this season we had a great year

This is a fair take. Last year we lose this game by 10+

Pitt played desperate and we limped into this game.
 
We were a top 20 team two years ago sitting at 4-1 before we melted down and richt retired.

Every time we’ve won this year I’ve noticed some really bad rationalizing/spin jobs of our issues because we lost to la tech and fiu last year.

Is that how low the bar is now?

We beat Louisville, fsu, and Pitt last year too.

If the glaring issues staring us all in the face don’t get fixed we’re losing 2-3 more games.

I’m rooting for Diaz and the rest of this staff and these players but I’m not a blind homer.

This is a sloppy undisciplined football team.
 
We need guys to get some separation so King can do his thing. Seems like he was having to run around to much looking for an open man. Couple more pieces to this puzzle and we can start thinking about Clemson again.

Bama gave up a zillion yards to 1-2 Ole Miss. Guess they should be ranked lower too if everyone is so concerned about style points

Ole miss cant do squat against Arkansas. CIS logic is Arkansas defense better than Alabamas

This team is a top 20 team. We are good. Not great.

We have good players. Several very good players. We have 2 or 3 excellent players. Game changers? Not sure

Defense played well. Offense played decent.

We are 4-1. We beat a desperate solid team
By double digits.
There are a half dozen college teams at a
Different level.

Our goal is Clemson again. We do that, we get more dogs.

Top 20 now or top 20 when the big ten and pac 12 start playing?

Pitt's D is very very solid and our coaches were very aware, almost too aware as our offensive game plan seemed passive and conservative

Overall, our D showed up and won us that game. It's a good W and one we easily lose in the past

Gotta just chalk it up to W and keep getting better and beating teams we should.

I think the loss of Jordan and Jarrid Williams dictated play calling. They also pinned us deep inside our ten 3-4 times.

I feel like people who don't understand football throw around the word 'undisciplined' a lot.

Tennesssee and Auburn lose today to unranked teams, while we’re scoring 30+ and winning. I don’t care if it’s not how some people want us to win, last year we couldn’t even score a touchdown.

Exactly!!! We were horrible last season and were much better this season. I can't believe people are really complaining about this years team so far

You said it. I concur big time. We are a good team. More than good. Look around the league like this poster stated. We won that's it.
