Certainly not representative of where we finished in ‘23. And, Chattanooga ahead of us? Didn’t we beat them last year… twice!?
The second time hardly counts. Love the win but, as Jackal or someone said upthread, they were missing JAY PERSON and their qb and starting CB. and etc etc. And it showed. That was half the team …. Person was a BEAST. Best D Player In conference BY FAR. With him it’s a game. Without we are far better. He’s the type guy that in this new portal NIL world might have been gone a year or two earlier
Hardly counts? We throttled them in Greenville. By the same token, we played them in Chattanooga with Person on the field and we played most of the game with a backup QB and beat them anyway.
Remember, many of the dudes they were "missing" in the playoffs are guys that they are "missing" this season, too.
