scenario, against arguably the toughest (and very front loaded) schedule, with 8 straight games before a bye week, we are sitting at 4-4 with a legit chance to still end up 8-4. We lost to three currently ranked teams (all in top 20, 2 in top 15) by a combined 8 points. And this team still beat teams from the Pac12, Big10, and SEC? Oh and our all-time great RB was out tonight and limited due to injury vs Utah. Not to mention the slew of other injuries, especially to our lines.

I am just as frustrated with losing such close games too, but let's have a little bit of perspective guys.
