We run the same plays in the same way every game. With the talent and experience we have there is no excuse for not tailoring game plans to the opposition.

Bling, I know we kid each other about not agreeing (at all! ), but this is one time where I can't believe you believe we wouldn't be better. Now, there is no for sure way to know, but after watching Petrino work for a few years, it's obvious the guy is a winner. Freddy
I totally agree. A good coach makes all the difference. Thats why they make so much money. We would have beaten those teams and I think we would have beat WVU as well. I don't think we could have beat USF, but it would have been more competitive. Like I said earlier, with petrino I believe we would win 10-12 games this year (depending on who we got in a bowl game).
