The answer to all is yes ... a resounding yes.
But they are underrated. They accomplished what they did while handicapped by the worst game planner and play caller in college football. They did it despite the fact opposing defensive coaches had the easiest job possible. They knew with near-certainty what was coming.
Alabama or Georgia Oline starters could not do what our guys did given a vanilla, predictable play book that always allowed the opposing defense to be in best position to stop us.
