That win total (7 or 8), is definitely above the threshold that Wyoming coaches need for job security. The posters in this board and the more involved fans would like more obviously. I'm mostly curious about your assertion that Wyoming's win total in conference is, in the main, dependant upon how strong the rest of the conference is. I get that from a pure prediction standpoint or if I'm doing some serious college football gambling.... But I'm not doing that. I'm a fan. To me, 6+ conference wins is exciting and gives us an opportunity to play in a title game. I mean, we aren't talking about an FCS to SEC swing in conference strength.ragtimejoe1 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 07, 2023 7:15 amIt would be the second in a decade and likely Craig Bohl's ceiling. Celebrate? Meh, that's up to the individual.
I don't think this year's squad is good enough to get to 6+ conference wins unless the MWC is really terrible. I predict the MWC will be typical and we dont get 6+ wins. If the MWC is typical and we get 6+ wins then I'm wrong and the team is better than i expected.
You're trying to debate about how we should feel if it does happen. I'm sure everyone will have their own opinion on that but 6 wins would mean 7-5 or 8-4 most likely.
I would understand worrying about conference strength if we were gunning for playoff consideration I guess... It just feels like a way to downgrade a possible good season before it gets off the ground. If Bohl gets this years squad to 6 mwc wins, I would want more but I'm definitely giving kudos to Bohl and the team instead of downgrading the accomplishment.
