I agree with a lot of what you are saying.
However, when you set your sights high, as Bronco has, in suggesting that getting to a National Championship is the GOAL, it doesn't make sense when you don't practice like it.
We had 2 weeks to prepare for Utah.....from the sounds of it, we weren't prepared for what they did. They also took a lot of time off (a staple of Bronco's management of the team over the years, which has always bugged me).
If you want to be a National Champion, you better practice and prepare like one. You can't do it the way we have been and expect a different result.
Bronco talks about a lot of high and lofty goals, but I don't see where the team is sacrificing to get there. I see a lot of BREAKS.
