As I stated before, in my eyes, the season's already shot.
1) Bowl eligibility has never been something to get excited about.
2) 10 wins against super crappy competition doesn't mean anything to me. Besides, having watched them play the last 7 games, I would gladly bet my next paycheck that they won't get to 10 wins. Without hope, there is no excitement.
3) I don't believe for one second that this team will crack the top 25 again, even if they win every game from here on out. Again, no hope = no excitement.
But again, that's just me. If you have excitement looking forward to these things, then more power to you.
