I wasn't ready to lose. How you feelin?

In past years I think I had prepared myself to lose to uva.

Even earlier this season I prepared myself to lose.

Yesterday I was not prepared to lose to uva. I quietly expected to win by 10+. I sat down and mentally was ready to half watch the game and enjoy time with kids and family. I wasn't ready to watch a back and forth game. I wasn't ready to watch a game we could lose.

How is everyone feeling today?

I've tried to tell myself it was their time, maybe it's better we don't get crushed by Clemson and a SEC team in the Orange bowl. But it's all surface lies.
