98.5% would be delighted and 1.5%, well you know. Here we are the day after and sure seems like more than 1.5% are not happy about beating the spread. 16-7 W sure feels a lot better than a 10pt swing in the 4th qtr and losing 31-30.
Some people just have a hard time being happy! Lot of negative posts but this team won, covered the spread, and played a lot better the last 3rd of the season to finish positive. The future is bright! A healthy team, new recruits and maybe some staff adjustments, 2024 should be a great year!

Heck yeah man! I wouldn't care if we won 8-7, at least it reduces that delusional yapping chatter from the Coots.

The stats aren't important. It's how we play the game.

Defense is amazing. All heart, and great results.
Offense... well... not so much.

There is one stat that is of utmost importance. The final score.

The offense, for the most part, played complimentary football

The defense wasn’t going to give up a ton of points last night if we could control field position and time of possession. Once that became obvious it made perfect sense to grind it out. I thought most of the offensive play calling was pretty dang good towards that goal. Of course, costly drops and a few bad reads cost us, but we didn’t make the big mistakes that would’ve brought the gamecocks back into contention.

This is just fantasy land. The offense was abysmal. We weren't able to put a TD

drive together because of tons of mistakes, terrible reads and decisions in the game, missed blocks, bad routes, bad runs, dropped balls, etc etc etc. The offensive coaching staff has created a product that is absolutely terrible, and it shows on every play.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong w being happy about our win and at the same time wondering how in the world are we going to score in our bowl game.

We should get Collins and Williams back by then. Some of our RS players may emerge as well. But we should be more healthy and hopefully not half the team on IV's pre-game.

Yes but this would require deductive reasoning and multiple thought process skills, same ones required to walk and chew gum.

BigBass, some of us like talking football. Has nothing to do with enjoying, rooting for, or not appreciating a Win. Just analyzing the game from a fan's perspective. Last time I checked, that is what a discussion bored is.
If not, you'd literally have one post repeated 10000 times and that's great job Tigers. I appreciate the fact we're 8-4 and a chance to be 9-4. Good year by most teams standards.
At the same time, I can also appreciate the way Saban is... natty or bust.
