...somewhat 'hear' what you're saying but outside of having our o-line back, we had some big losses on both O and D including Teel, Britt, Underwood, Tverdov, J-Mac and Greene. We should have been at least 1 win better but that UCF team ended up being 11-3 the next year and finished in the Top 25. It was a quality win.
For me, I look at the RA Bowl the way you described the '09 season. Outside of the Cincy game, our last 6 games that year were a GIGANTIC disappointment and an absolute waste of a great defense.
