to put it into perspective we're 6-3 in bowl games and had some nice wins over down teams (Oregon), struggled to beat some mediocre teams (Tulsa, SDSU, AZ, UCLA) and lost to some mediocre p5 teams (AZ, Wash, Cal). Oregon St was the one ranked team we beat (and we beat them good).
Also, big wins in general are kind of random and not very prevalent in Bronco's career.
