Message: [QUOTE="Stray_Dog, post: 5311415, member: 4114"] Well, granted it was in our backyard but Fenway was glad we were there and the fans that showed up... As for scheduling P-4 I say it bring it on - we wont be playing the top of the P-4, we'll likely play the bottom 2 - tiers so be it. Now if there is a conference that did us ill last year it was the ACC with the bad officiating we got, so yea, maybe we only schedule 1-2 ACC schools. And those schools we played - they were not the best or most excited to play us competetion but were like UNC was in that regard but they had the officials not so in the bowl game. Losing to two teams on the same field (our opponents were not just in school colors but in the black and white stripes). This is why that UNC felt so special. RE: zoo and his brown colored glasses. That season might be a spring board or it might not but that doesn't mean it was NOT a special season. No not like the Dream season of Tate George, Scott Burrell (he actually has an NBA championship ring being able to play and practice with Michael Jordon himself!), and others. And do you think those guys who played in that dream season pictured what would happen 10 years later or what those fans thought would happen in 10 years. But the Coach - he had a vision and yet he didn't know either. But it happened and not because we played cupcakes. Yes we were in the Big East but we were the team that didn't belong as we were notoriously bad back in the day. But we played and and had our Cinderella moment in MBB - now why not in football, why not dream and play who we are scheduled to play and simply ask for it to be a fair contest and see what happens! I'm not pinning for teams that would put our players into the ground with no shot of winning. You act like P-4 competition is OSU the top 50% of the BIG, 80% of the SEC, ot the top4 in the BIG 12.
