One huge hump we must get over in the "Art Briles era" is beating a team with a winning record. UAB and Louisville both stand to finish the season with winning records & both have winning records currently.

When I look back at this season it is disappointing that we wont go bowling we had opportunities and let them get away: Southern Miss, Rice and TCU should have all been wins.

Oh well thats spilled milk.

Bottom line: although its nice to record wins over teams that we should beat ... we gotta up the standards. We started last year by setting "Bowl expectations" ... now we can move to the next level by beating a team with a winning record.

I feel very good about chances of beating UAB. They're defense seems to have fallen off a bit.

Louisville is going to be tough. That offense is clicking on all cylindars. I am hpoping that we can keep up with them.
