As we go in to the homestretch of our season, some important numbers to keep in mind; W - L 2009 3 - 9 2010 1 - 11 2011 1 - 11 2012 1 - 11 2013 5 - 7 2014 4 - 5 (currently) W-L record of remaining 3 opponents 6-21. We SHOULD win the rest of our games. If that happens, our record will be 7-5, which means; It will be only the 5th time we have won 7 games in a season since going to Division I (27 years ago)It will be only the 6th winning season we have had in 27 years since going to Division I (27 years ago)Will have our first winning record in 8 yearsIt will be the 20th time we have had 7 wins since 1891We will have 12 wins in the last 2 years after 11 wins combined in the previous 4 seasonsA bowl game would give us a chance for 8 wins - which has only happened 4 times since 1891We will be bowl eligibleWe will have beaten Can't State 2 years in a rowThat should be huge motivation for this team and if that is where we wind up, I will be happy and I cannot imagine anyone arguing that there has been MAJOR improvement. GO ZIPS!! In the immortal words of Matthew McConaughey (while driving his Lincoln)....... "Sometimes you gotta go back to actually move forward. And I don't mean go back to reminisce or chase ghosts — I mean go back to see where you came from, where you been, how you got here. See where you're goin'. I know there are those who say you can't go back. Yes, you can. You just have to look in the right place."
