If we go 11-1, I'm not sure anyone could have a better resume with our three previous big wins plus a win over either Bama or OM and a possible SEC title. The only team I think that could've possibly had a better resume was K-State, and they just got their second loss, so they're out. TCU may be comparable, but I still think its us.
I'm not going to proclaim that we have a really strong OOC schedule, but two out of the four teams we scheduled are on pace to be bowl eligible. One of the others is USM, and then there is UT-Martin, but every D-I team in America plays someone like that for homecoming. See Ole Miss/Presbyterian and Alabama/Western Carolina.

Our OOC may not be a world beater- but it's also not as bad as some are trying to make it out to be.
