we all know the odds are against it – but that'll just make it all the more special!

We play good teams and half of our opponents have a bye or cupcake before us.

if P5 teams can go undefeated playing 9 p5 games a year we can do it with fewer

Course, our opponents seem to always have a bye or easy team the week before

I think the trajectory is definitely pointing upward, though.

You've closed the door on NY6 and a National Championship for the program.

Those are realistic, I was just being a jerk. I do think the deck is stacked in

You can keep the "mid major" stuff.

One might call us an Independent P5-worthy Program.

I agree. But that's a long name bro.

At the same time, we are playing 6 p5 teams every year. In the MWC, you play one or two. Then if you bust you get three.

In 2008 Utah beat 4 teams that FINISHED ranked. That is tougher than any of

Utah had an easier schedule that year. Ours was much tougher.

Totally agree, being a Bama fan is like cheering for a cheating older brother

Even worse, our independence status gives us worse access than G5s.

The goal needs to be get to a NY6 game, that is the only thing Bronco didn't do

True, but I don't think we necessarily have to go undefeated for that

Very poor logic and frankly a pathetic outlook
