For all the ups and downs and unrealistic expectations this was a banner year in football. I am perfectly content with the season as a whole. Yes, we could have beaten ECU but we also could have lost to SMU. This is as good as it gets people. There will be years where we snag a conference championship but all the BCS talk was just that, talk. We are a TINY program and it is an AMAZING accomplishment to win 39 games in 4 years and go 3-1 in bowls. Next year, we have a lot tougher schedule, let me kick a dead horse one more time and say that it would have been AWESOME to have Tech at home. Who knows how we will do next year, I will say 8-4 and I will take that every year.
It was fun to talk about why we should be ranked and about going undefeated BUT, I think we should not be so aggressive about such in the future. #1 goal every year should be to win conference, everything else is gravy... so... no more 14-0 shirts, no more scoring touchdowns with 5 seconds left against outmatched D2 opponents, no more one off revenge road games at bad SEC schools, no more cancelling home and homes with Big 12 teams and no more orchestrating a BCS run. Let's win CUSA, everything else will fall into place after that.
Great job coaches, players and fans. We are all looking forward to next year.
