Pretty great. They were very good before CP too.
Take away Chris Petersen, from 2001-2020 and their .803 win pct would be 3rd in FBS behind Ohio St and Oklahoma. They would be 5-8 vs the final top 25 with 7 top 25 finishes and 72 weeks in the AP Poll.

The reason to take SDSU is to get CA recruiting. I don’t think it’s enough.
