Just a quick observation, take it for what it's worth (not much I admit):
It's just not a stretch at all: We lost the LT game. Certainly could have lost the game to a more than decent Providence team (and down 10 early in the first half, I'm sure many of us were trying to find a win on the schedule). We lost to Davidson. Without discussing who we might have played, we certainly could have lost to App State. We lost to Alabama. We almost got it to a one possession game with Baylor and OU hammered us. Jax State and Southern Miss were essentially one possession games and VCU beat us handily. Outside of Rice and ORU, none of the wins were rock solid. This team could be 2-9. Yes a bunch of things would have had to go wrong, but it's far from impossible. I think it's a testament to the grittiness and overall effort of the players and coaches et al that we're 7-5. Sure there have been mistakes, by everyone, even the fans, but the results, in my opinion, are better than expected.
Merry Christmas everyone.
