Simple as that. Those teams are down. Talk about getting real. Who do you think you're fooling by name dropping? This isn't just about the schedule anyway, which I think you know. But it's easier to argue that we have a better schedule than when we were in the WAC, than face the real problems. We aren't playing in the 80s anymore and thumping our chest about going 7-6 or even 9-4 against .500 competition isn't going to get us anywhere in today's college football.
