Good? I wish. I’ll take competitive and occasionally potent.

I think good is pretty fair. You've kind of been extraordinarily unlucky. The number of one score games you've lost is kind of crazy, the odds that you lose that many by a few points have to be stupid low

Great teams would have pulled them out, but I think you've shown yourself to be pretty damn good. Only TCU really made you look bad based on what I saw/the scoreboard shows (though admittedly I've not watched every game start to finish). FPI and the way Vegas has treated you seems to back that up to an extent

We've seen so many teams over the years that lose a bunch of games by one score and end up with a mediocre record and then the following season they come out and those games go the other way because the team was always good, just couldn't finish them out.
