If, at the beginning of the season, we had been told that we’d finish with the same record as Colorado, South Carolina, and Syracuse, we’d have thought that OM finished 6-6 and the bottom fell out.
Likewise, if you had told State fans that they’d finish with the same record as Florida State, they’d think they’d be prepping for the playoffs and crowning Lebby as their savior.
The line between victory and defeat can often be a razor’s edge, especially against conference opponents.
In fact, if you’re State, does it make you feel better or worse that you finished 2-10 (0-8), yet played hard in every game? At least when we finished with that same record in 2011, we probably would have lost to a high school team since we had quit so badly.
