ASU and Furd look like the bottom of the PAC. California should be favored over them but could easily drop those. The other 7 games are ALL against teams that are currently ranked! Hard to see a better scenario than winning the two we'd be favored in and picking off a ranked upset. That gets you 5. Beyond that is going to require a far better passing game than we've seen. Who knows, maybe as SJV gets some more reps he will get better at progressing through reads and hitting his guys. I wouldn't put money on Wilcox getting his first winning record in conference play in year seven though...

The ‘where do the wins come from’ game is a real miserable exercise this year. It’s beyond infuriating when you consider that during the time wilcox has had us stuck in neutral/reverse, 3 or 4 of those now-ranked teams were varying degrees of messes that hired new coaches and completely rebuilt their programs. We’ve stagnated while everyone around us with the exception of asu and the furd has massively improved.

And I’d rather have Kenny Dillingham rebuilding the program than Wilcox right now. We’re saddled with him and can not even begin the rebuild until probably after next season….

Hmmm… like Sonny Dykes?

Yes, there is cultural bullshit, here. Nerds that hated PE and football even more.

He has no excuses, but the fact that there is a segment of our fanbase still willing to make excuses for him completely boggles my mind.
