Pretty brutal. Can't be too shocked, this is what happens when you underachieve as much or more than anyone in country over last 2 seasons. It was an uphill climb last year and this will be no different, likely harder. Most of us know this, why the veteran players, coaches & admin don't has always been curious. The numbers will change but bottom line it will take a very long winning streak. We had 7 reg season losses in 19-20 and were on bubble, imo solidly the right side of bubble at the time, but certainly an 8th loss in A10 quarters would have had us squarely on it and possibly wrong side of bubble.
Have 4 losses now, facing a very pedestrian schedule rest of way that only give us a few strong opportunities. in last 22 games (presuming no Covid cancels which is a big presumption) that means going on a 19-3 bender or 20-2 to feel really good. 18-4 even seems precarious unless the games fall perfectly.
Remember in 19-20 we also had the high profile B10 champ win over Wisco, we got nothing like that this year.
