Is the glass half full or half empty....

Very good points by the way about Korn and Reese playing against 2nd and 3rd teams. I meant to mention that in my post and forgot.

Talking about your OL, is the glass half full or half empty? You can look at it from both sides. It could very well be that your DL has improved and thats good. It could not be that. Before the season I always opt for the glass is half full. Now, having said that, in the way of the Tigers unfortunately as the season unfolds it usually turns out that the glass is half empty in those sort of question marks. But, thats not to say that is the case either.

You can look at Bowden in the same concept. Is the glass half full. I think so, we choose to judge him harshly but... It has not been very long ago that we would be expecting an ass beating from FSU coming up. Right now I am fairly confident we will pull off a win, I am convinced we will play a very competitive game. So, having said that, Bowden has made improvements. He is competative with everyone we play. Unfortunately, Va Tech gave us a beating. But all teams, even the Southern Cals, Ohio States, Fla, Auburns, they all have weeks like that. We choose however to say, we just do the same thing every year. Not so much.

Takes a while to make a team competative with big name teams. Spurrier knows this and has worked hard to change the attitude of his players and fans and with success up to this point.

If you really think about Bowden in terms of the glass being half full its not bad at all. What he needs to do is not as complicated as we sometimes choose to make it. Its simple and very acheivable, he needs to keep playing at the same level against big name teams. That should have been the biggest obstacle and because he does proves the team is capable of being a powerhouse already. What he needs to find a way to do is play at the same level against lower level teams. If he finds a way to do this we are there. Not so bad in my opinion and very logical to think it can and will happen.
