We were a mess for long stretches of last season, but the way we started playing down the stretch, and especially in the UVA loss, was top 25 caliber - which is why I was really excited and hopeful for the dance (and we did not disappoint).

It had to do with both how we were playing defense, and how the offense became suddenly (thank you BB) functional.  Setting aside the opponents - this team looks offensively functional right out of the gate.  They have a good idea of what they want to do, and the ability to do it.  I think the unknowns are Benny and the O that he can ultimately bring, and how to properly incorporate what Jesse has become as well.  Defensively, we have work to do, but I like the length and the parts.

Bottom line, I think we are light years ahead of where we were last year - and will throw some sophisticated offense at our opponents right out of the gate.  And there is serious upside as Benny and Jesse (and dare I say, Sid) come online.
