But Penix was able to overcome that last year by throwing quickly, He hasn't been able to do so effectively this year. The comment about wasting a season on a great defense was accurate. Now for the easy part of our schedule: 3 of next 4 are #7, #9, and #11! Still I think there is hope for this team. Fortunately I think CTA is one of the few coaches who can keep this team together. Play IU and get a top 10 ranking lol!! Funny though...imagine if we had won those games.....would we be sitting in the driver seat for a CFP birth?? We'd have to be ranked in the top 5 right? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if we had made them close games and actually scored more than 6 points. College football actually looks at how big the win/loss is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had beaten Iowa and Penn State (lol, that felt silly to type), they wouldn't be anywhere near the top 5 because a loss to IU is still considered a bad loss to some of the people who do these rankings. I just don't think they'd feel comfortable ranking us any higher. I mean, we got up to what, #12 last year, and people were acting like the sun was rising in the southwest. Ok, back to present day IU football and hoping we don't see a run up the middle on first down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
