That is something I would be 100% totally okay with. Actually I would favor it. It is a lot more realistic to think Wyo could make some Elite 8s and Final4s under Shyatt than Coach C getting us into some BCS Bowls or making the new playoff system.
Let's set our goals high yes, and try to be a powerhouse in football but let's also play the odds, put our money on the horse that has a realistic chance ya know?
Then in the future we could REALLY bitch about not recruiting the Jaycee Carrols, James Johnsons, etc.

WHOA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's tap the brakes a little.
This kind of expectation sunk the ship for football. Let's be optimistic, but realistic.
We can start talking Elite 8 AFTER we make the tourney and win some games. Until then, I am ok with hoping for a good seed and run for the for a MWC title.
Yep....its just talk, no harm in that.....I think most are excited, but cautiously optimistic. After football this year, its hard to run away with any expectations as a given.Wyo2dal said:The majority of us are just day dreaming to imagine our favorite school being a power at something outside of wrestling. I highly doubt anyone is taking this with any realism.

Yes sir.
Expectations will continue to rise starting tomorrow though. And then after we beat UCSB.
Think we hit the top 25 if and after we get to 12-0?
Agreed. Win in Dallas, and there is no way the AP will deny a 13-0 team.Wyo2dal said:Going to say no. It's going to require another signature win now currently SMU is most likely that signature win.

Very true. At some point, SOS no longer matters if that loss total remains really low. That's how Murray State climbed so high last season.BeaverPoke said:And... at this point... it matters about the teams in front of us...
It's not like the committee is gonna sit there and say well Wyo is good but we don't think they have enough quality victories sooooo let's just have a top 24.
If we keep winning, and teams from 21-28 lose, we are going to be in... quality victory or not...
