:+1:93bird said:The first four games to open last year don't look much different than the first four this year. Sure, we've got three straight road games to start, but there's a lot of upside too. In my mind, the Bobcats are the biggest threat in the BSC this year and we get them at home to start the season. We could go one and three to start, run the table, and still have a home playoff game. If we split the first four and run the table, we've got a really high playoff seed. Compare this season's first four to last season's.

Playing the Montana schools in the order we have them this year is in my opinion much easier than the order we had them last year. The two other games in my opinion aren't much different. It could even be argued that Nevada and Central last year were tougher matchups than UW and South Dakota this year.
We've already been to the top of the FCS mountain, why not build a tower on it then fly an Eagle flag from it by winning four straight to start? If ever there were a time to raise the bar even higher, it's now.
