Brutally honest answer? A really weak schedule. We played about a 5 game


schedule against Louisville, Memphis, and neutral site one game against UVA, who was pretty average pre-Ralph. The other games weren't all that. Tulane was decent, FSU wasn't what they are now, nor was Cincy and the non conference games were a lot of lightweights, save UVA and WVU, lots of W&M, Richmond, VMI, ODU.

One Metro championship was about it. We had to get up for a few games. Sometimes we did, sometimes we didn't. Those teams would've been .500 at best against the current level of competition.
