None of the 9 teams we beat have turned out to be even Top 50 teams, IMHO (and frankly FCS wins shouldn't count anyway).
The 2015 schedule turned out to be extremely weak, and it's not like we were suddenly at Wyoming-levels of talent when Taysom, Jamaal, etc., were out. We beat a bunch of teams ranging from slightly-above-average to sucky to Wagner, and had losses to 2 good teams and a bad one.
9-3 is a B or B- in my book; a fun and successful season, but nothing close to extraordinary.
