[QUOTE="Calvin, post: 1813547, member: 4069"] Just want to echo this. 5-10 years ago, we'd be happy fans, watching an early season crushing. But I think Underwood has the program back, and we're looking at these games with a more critical eye, thinking about how they stack up against the best teams in the nation. I think about how well the 2005 team played, and those guys played with each other for years. This team is trying to come together in such a short time span, I'm wondering how much progress they'll make. In some ways, this will be a huge challenge for the staff and players. I'm happy they're getting a few of these under their belt before facing tough games. I see some great signs, and some things to worry about. I will say this is a fun group to watch. I think they'll face adversity well during the season, and I'm going to enjoy the ride. [/QUOTE]
