You never know how a season is going to unfold.

Last year before the start of the season, a lot of posters [self included] thought our schedule was insanely weak, with a bunch of tomato cans.  Then, it turns out that we ended up playing against 8 teams that qualified for bowls, which means that it was a much tougher schedule than many of us expected.

If you'd told me before the season that we'd lose to BC, a pretty weak Stanford team [at home], and get blown out @ Pitt, I would have been greatly concerned.  And yet, we got to 10 wins.

Next year's schedule looks like murderer's row.  5 teams that were in the playoffs, several of them "road" games [I'll count Tennessee in this category, even though we aren't at their stadium].

Getting to a bowl game is imperative.  There's no shame in 6 or 7 wins, on paper.

Anything more than that, is a lot of momentum heading into 2026.

Really need Angeli or Collins to emerge as a difference maker.  If one does, maybe Fran shocks the college football world again.
