BC beat UMass, Wagner, Buffalo, NC State, UConn and WF. 2 FCS teams (almost 3).
Maryland beat Howard, FIU, UCF, Purdue, Michigan State and Rutgers. 1 FCS team (almost 5)
Clearly, at this point at least, we need to feast on our 4 OOC games. We play enough marquee teams in our division alone w/FSU, Louisville and powerhouse Clemson. As Steve Martin's Wild & Crazy Czech brother Yortuk Festrunk might say, "Pleaski. Give me a breakski."
Sad season is over even though we took our licks. Need to back into a bowl next year and make it happen in 2018. I'm not sure what "it" means, but it ain't 4-8.
Of the 14 ACC teams only SU, Duke and Virginia aren't bowling.
A team like Georgia Tech that has a relatively low national profile (rarely part of the "national conversation") went to a bowl 19 straight years (except last year). Va Tech in a bowl game every year since 1993. Pitt 7 coaches in the last 8 years (3 interim) and goes bowling every year. And don't even talk to me about Dontez Ford.
My whine/rant over, I'm hopeful (there's that word again) Babers will turn it around w/improved recruiting, player development and more Amba Etta-Tawos. Go Orange!
