This seems just insane to me.
Metrics and analytics. Ours are fantastic.
26th on ESPN's FPI.
34th on the SP+
24th Sagarin
25th FEI
Massey's poll of polls thing has them at 49th, but favored by 1 at OSU, 7 vs Tech, and only 3 pt dog at TCU.
This team, with an average o-line (not good, just average) is easily 7-2 and maybe 8-1. And a good shot at the CCG.
Woulda, coulda, shoulda.
