[QUOTE="CountryFrog, post: 2793562, member: 70667"] Assessing the overall "talent level" of an entire team is certainly highly subjective and to a certain degree a fool's errand anyway because a talented team doesn't always equal a good team. BUT, I think that pretty much anyone who watched our games against SMU, KSU, and Baylor could reasonably say that those are games that SHOULD have been won by TCU with the team we put out there as compared to the opponent. You could also pretty easily say that we're even or at least very close to ISU and OSU. Yet we lost all of those games. You're certainly never going to win every game against a similarly talented opponent even if you're slightly better but imo we've been in 6 such games this year and have a 1-5 record. All of that seems to support the notion that we are close. I wish I could write this off as simply bad luck but since this is the 3rd season in the last 4 that we've found ourselves in this spot then either we're the unluckiest sports team in the history of sports or some realities need to be faced and addressed.
