I'm not sure we are a "legit" BCS program just yet.  We have improved and by no means are the laughing stock of college football anymore, but we still haven't won a BE title or won more than 7 regular season games.  Maybe this year changes that.  We are certainly not taken for granted anymore.  I mean one win vs WVU and the opinions of many on this board have done a complete 180.  After the Tulane game, some people weren't sure Marrone was the right man for the job.

As far as a contract extension, I'm sure Gross and Co are already in talks to offer Doug more years and money.  We still only have 5 wins, and we still need to find win #6 for the bowl.  Based on last week's performance, it sure does look like we could be in store for 8 or 9 wins and a shot at that slippery BE title.  That would certainly secure a nice long-term contract for Marrone.

Last Friday night was a tremendous audition for Shafer on national television.  I'm sure many programs took notice.
