They didn`t appear great against USC. They beat `Cuse but Dungy was out most of the game. Tech played them straight up in the first half, until this year`s 2nd half swoon.

Not sure the average ranking of the teams they played this year. I think Michigan was their only big win and the rest were average wins.

Overall not awed by the team as a whole as compared to `Bama, Clemson, Georgia, Ohio St and OK. Those teams dominated in most of their games.
