Barely beating two win SDST was a near catastrophe and 5-7 USF was a catastrophe. We have a nice roster. A coaching staff to emvy. If ND cannot win a game like this then perhaps lower expectations for this program and staff are in order. There is absolutely no reason we can't go into College Station confident of a solid win.
