For the Kelly naysayers...

I get the angle of your post but to correct you.....Lou was not even close to terrible in his first year. You might just be reciting a stat line but I lived it. We were in every damn game that year minus 1 against #2 at the time Bama. 28-10.

Outside of that....
We lost by less than a TD to
#3 Michigan, to the #3 but eventual national champion Penn State Nittany Lions, the #8 LSU team and finished by beating #17 USC in a great game. We lost to a decent Pitt team 9-10.

Lou was incredible that year even in a losing record season and you could see the culture change and great things were around the corner.
I think we lost four games by 11 points? And we moved up to number 24 if my memory serves me correctly after the Michigan loss. We were very competitive that year. Yes we lost to Alabama, but a year later we beat the pants off of them
