It always cheers me up a bit to know that other people are suffering, and although some of these teams will go to bowl games, most of the fanbase thinks their college football legacy deserves better.
Texas 7-5
All the money, recruiting advantages, coaching changes and arrogance, and the Longhorns still aren't back to relevance.
TCU 5-7
They've had a damn good run the last few years, but look at that record-- no better than Nebraska!
Florida State 6-6
One more win, but they've had some of the most embarrassing losses of any Division 1 team this year. Fired their second year head coach. May be trending back up.
Miami 6-6
Warm weather, recruiting hotbed, football legacy, keeping most of their players out of prison these days, but still mired in mediocrity.
Michigan State 6-6
Meh.
Northwestern 3-9
They used to fight Nebraska for the upper reaches of the second tier of the Big 10, but they were just awful this year.
Washington 7-5
Huskies fans expect more, especially in a weak Pac 12
Stanford 4-8
They've been tough, smart and in the hunt all decade. A power football team that vintage Huskers want to emulate. But the personnel ran out this year. It happens.
UCLA 4-8
They've got every advantage we supposedly lack, and Scott Frost's more proven mentor at the helm, and they continue to troll the bottom of the Pac 12.
Colorado 5-7
Do their fans expect more or deserve better? Don't know. Don't care.
Tennessee 7-5
This record probably has the folks in Knoxville feeling optimistic, which shows just how far the Vols have fallen.
Texas A&M 7-5
I've never considered A&M college football royalty, but their fans seem to disagree. LIke 6-6 Missouri, they look like they're fading down the backstretch of the SEC
Arkansas 2-10
Believe it or not, Arkansas used to be a player. Or a spoiler. Or something. And Nebraska used to covet their coaches. They probably weren't as good as their 2-10 record suggests.
