Do you think any staff, admin or even semi knowledgeable fan would begrudge Bronco if he provides us our only realistic option for a NY6 game by scheduling us at least a week before 12/19? That would allow us another 2 wks to find another solid P5 and not make us wait until 3 days before 12/19(P12 rules). By 12/12 we'd know his record which will likely be 7-4 and that's likely good enough to get us a NY6.
What I'm saying is if Bronco was our only real shot at even qualifying for the NY6, everyone realizes it's a win win. Only play our 10 gms, or an 11th with a subpar G5 and we don't get in, or lose to Bronco--same non NY6 result
