Georgia Southern was 10-3 last year with a bowl win
Fresno was 12-2 (lost to Minnesota) last year with a bowl win over Arizona St., ending the year ranked in the top 25
South Dakota St. was 10-3 losing to eventual FCS champion in two of those loses
While we should be able to beat these teams (BTW, we did) these are not badly coached losing teams. They have winning cultures.
Today Michigan St. lost to Arizona St. (the team Fresno beat in their bowl game), Maryland lost to Temple, Illinois lost to Eastern Michigan, and Purdue lost earlier to Nevada. As of right now there are three B1G teams which are 3-0, Ohio St., Penn St. and Minnesota.
We are doing fine. It seems far more like we play to the level of our competition and only decide to win in the last minute. We'll fix the low snaps, the gaps in the line, the field goal kicking, the bad decisions (4th and 1 on your own 30 with 3 minutes on the clock) etc. We beat 3 winners and learned a lot about our team. We'll be okay. And I love Fleck...
