Expect what you want. But if your expectations are not met, you may need to examine whether your bar is too high, or why the team failed to meet the goal.

Most around here have tempered expectations in the present, with longer-term goals to be able to expect wins. This team is not built to win today. It's built to grow and develop into a team that will soon be the one we can expect to win. But in the now, we are flawed. The roster is incomplete. The foundational players are young and need to refine their game.

The expectation is that we not be an embarrassment like last year. That we are in the game fighting for the win in the fourth. There will be times that we get the dubs, there will be times we shoot ourselves in the foot. We're not Bama. This isn't Superb Owl or bust.

Jags spoil their fun, tho, 24-20.

Get used to close games, I imagine we are gonna see a lot of em this year.
