Prior to the kst game, we were very clearly sandbagging and not showing a lot of what we would do later in the season.
Against kst, we were clearly a superior team that simply had not realized how good we were. That game galvanized the team's confidence and made them realize they could win pressure games.
florida was a tough game and a team with supreme confidence pulled it out.
You can argue that Ohio St started their second string QB, BUT the reason he was playing was because they actually thought he was better than the "starter" and they pushed that guy out in favor of the guy that faced us. Based on what we did to him early on, I'd say it's less than 50% chance him finishing the game would have helped OSU.
The breaks went against us and we got screwed/blew the LSU game.
