STAGE SIX - As summer camp progresses, the information from Morgantown swells more than the traffic during "move in" weekend. We are getting hit with so much information from the Blue Lot staffers that it is hard to keep up with the articles, videos, and interviews. At this point, we have begun setting up hotel reservations for the CFP locations and started planning the trip to Dallas in the first week of December.
We quietly glance over the schedule and etch out anywhere from 13-14 wins depending on the health of Saban's OL down the stretch. We have already acknowledged a great season and are just wondering "how great ??" It is also during this phase that we work on the depth chart and notice that we may deeper at all positions than any SEC team can shake a stick at. We remind ourselves that ESPN hates us... and we clearly admonish any fans from any other teams to ignore the talking heads and listen to us.
We are adamant and resolute in our feelings in STAGE SIX and even the most negative (i.e. realistic) of the Blue Lot bunch can even see how the team can reach these lofty standards. In this being our most optimistic STAGE of the off-season, this period is filled with hallucination, vivid dream scenarios of big wins, superstitious behavior, and delusion. Essentially, the word "fanatic" stems from STAGE SIX.... and as our fearless leader @Vernon once quipped, "Fans are gonna be fans... just let them be.... It ain't changing."
