I’m referring to our limited interest in the doings of the “SEC Elite” in their games for the next season or two...
I mean, sure, we’ll still tend to have a “sporting interest” in such games, but until we are consistently actually back IN these contests ourselves, we might watch the ones that are more competitive and well-played—but NOT with anything more than (in my case, for example) mainly “one distracted eye”...
I still love the game as it is played in the SEC, but the last dozen or so years have more and more been a growing strain on my waning faith and enthusiasm.
The very radical nature of the wholesale changes brought in so far by Coach BN insures both necessary change and probably some tough times directly ahead.
Though I am excited to have Texas and Oklahoma joining our league, I find myself sort of hoping WE aren’t scheduled to play them for a few seasons; I’d like to see us at least STARTING to gel and RISE as a “power” in a resurgent SEC East before we face either ONE in a nationally-featured game on a Saturday night in the Swamp! How bout y’all??!
