Dino years 1 through 3 vs teams that ended up with 9 or more Ws: 3-9 22.25 ppg to 37.17 ppg. The games weren't that close but when you win a few, it ain't so bad.

Dino years 4 through 7 (not including 2020 as some teams would have gotten to 9 Ws with a normal OOC schedule, or Minny due to opt outs): 0-9 15.78 ppg to 32.78 ppg. We played 3 less games or one less per year on avg. Only 2 ppg worse but no Ws (0%) vs 3 Ws (25% of games played).

Realistically none of the teams we have beaten this year will get to 9 Ws. Neither will any of the 5 teams left. FSU and UNC should both get 9 Ws no problem. Both would need to finish 2-5 to fail. Clemson would need to go 5-2 or better. Given their schedule, that is a hard task. So at best 0-3 8.00 ppg to 37.33 ppg and at worst 0-2 5.00 ppg to 40.50 ppg.

Dino went from 3-9 in 2015-2018 to 0-11 (maybe 0-12) from 2019-2023. If you include 2020 and Minny then it becomes 0-15 (0-16 if Clemson gets there this year). BTW both UNC and NC State went 8-4 (no FCS game for NC State) in 2020 and we went 0-2 in those games. Which means we are 0 for our last 17 vs teams that ended with 4 or less losses on the year (with Clemson TBD, could be 0-18).
