I don't see much to be happy about other than things made up by optimistic posters. We battled Rutgers for last place in a 14 team conference last year, and are set to do so again this year. I accept there are mitigating circumstances, and we're a young team, but a coach has got to do better than 4 wins in the BIG. The fact that we're already worried about more turnover is a really bad sign IMO, and offsets the positive spin (assuming you believe it) that some are peddling here.
Assuming we win today, I'm not sure when we'll see another. Could be a very, very long stretch of excuse filled losses. Really hope I look back and think what a pessimist I was, but looking at independent stats and analytics, I think we'll be underdogs with the lone exception of Rutgers, and the coaching in the most recent winnable game was just baaad.
Time to watch bowl games....
