I think so. Thoughts?

Yes. I feel like we limited ourselves from getting to 10-2 (WVU and OSU), but overall it was a good season with a very bright future.

Literally two plays from being 10-2. There are two ways of looking at that.

Absolutely.

8-4 should be seen as something we can achieve regularly. We got the minimum marker of success, so yes, it was.

Also literally two plays from being 6-6.

If this would have been the rebuilding year after 2014, I'd feel better. But we had last year's 6-7 lost year stinker wedged in there. If we finish it off 9-4, I'm more than pleased.

yes. although the stanford trip was fun, i wish we wouldn't have scheduled them. wvu/okst were infuriating. but, i will absolutely take 8-4 particularly with what we have coming back. hard not to be excited about what could be in 2017. need ertz's shoulder hernia to heal if that is what is causing him to suck most of the time throwing the ball.

Yes it was a success. Yes the way the season shook out we should have done better. Yes there were many frustrating aspects from this season, but 8-4 is 100% a successful season.

i don't like that this is our ceiling but i guess it's better than losing 8 games

Dugout DickStone · « **Reply #11 on:** December 03, 2016, 07:57:17 PM »

Win bowl game then yes

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #12 on:** December 03, 2016, 07:59:53 PM »

It's not our ceiling tho. This should have been a 10 win team. Very young and they weren't confident at Stanford to start the year. Watch out Big 12. This team is going places in the next two years.

pissclams · « **Reply #13 on:** December 03, 2016, 08:05:58 PM »

should have been!!

pissclams · « **Reply #14 on:** December 03, 2016, 08:07:24 PM »

it's good to know that we're the only b12 team that's going to get better next year

We also were the only team that played young talent and are returning their QB.

Um, OU gets Baker back.

Damn! He trippin' so hard fans are gonna think he done fell off!

scottwildcat · « **Reply #18 on:** December 03, 2016, 08:15:08 PM »

Nope. And Mason Rudolph isn't going to be back next year either

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #19 on:** December 03, 2016, 08:21:17 PM »

I love the condescending tone from my friends and pals, but we pretty much went 8-4 with Sophomore's, a shitty Barnett (who?), and Willis (who the big 12 figured out and started passing quick against us).

Belvis Noland · « **Reply #20 on:** December 03, 2016, 08:22:58 PM »

it's probably a good thing that we return basically our entire team next year.

Will miss Will-is

scottwildcat · « **Reply #22 on:** December 03, 2016, 08:30:58 PM »

Will also miss Moore, and Starks, but Cre has been solid the last two games at NB.

Dugout DickStone · « **Reply #23 on:** December 03, 2016, 08:31:57 PM »

Cre is an adorable twitter follow, or was until his dui
