Not turned the corner? LOL. If a coach who went 5-7 turns around and goes 8-4 with the 14th toughest schedule in the nation, yeah...I think even the toughest KW critics would change their minds...
We have four loses, three of which were against CURRENT Top 15 teams. You say, "that this is about the best they can expect to do in that conference in that division..." You mean the second toughest division in college football? We should be upset that we competed against or beat every team in our division (except AZ)?"
We beat #9 UCLA, USC, and Stanford.
We lost close games to Arizona State and Wazzu (blech)
We got a beat down from Arizona and played way closer than the score shows against Oregon.
How is this "not turning the corner?"
