I've been "chasing that high" like another member commented since the end of that game. Closest we came was 98, but considering we got waxed in the Orange Bowl by the Gators, it fell well short. The talent was there for sure, but bad-mediocre coaching throughout the year really limited us. The ceiling was incredibly high with that team. Even Butch Davis of Miami called that team "Ridiculously talented". I feel like that team had top 5 potential.

Our last year of what I would consider relevancy, was 2001 when we went 10-3 and finished #14. This however was an overachieving squad and without Freeney we likely win about 6 games that year. It never had the feeling that 92 and 98 squad gave me.

With the changing college football landscape, I'm beginning to come to the painful realization that achieving that 1992 "high" is unrealistic. 
I now think that a successful SU season would be 7 wins and a team that is in the "others receiving votes" category of the top 25.
