    Comparing where we are in the season (regular season complete) against history in my lifetime:

    1991: no losses
    2000: 1 loss, ridiculous non-con win, conf title due to tiebreaker
    2016: 1 loss, division title
    1990: 2 losses, conf title
    1980: 2 losses, conf title
    1981: 2 losses, conf title
    1992: 2 losses, conf title due to tiebreaker
    1984: 1 loss, lose conf title tiebreaker

    The conference might be retarded this year but a win on Friday moves it above 2000. A loss moves it to the bottom of this list.

    Win on Friday and this is the number 3 season in the last 30 years for me, even if we lose our first CFP game. PAC 12 Champs popping off. Lose and yeah, drops to like 7th or 8th in the last 30 years. Now win on Friday and then win our first CFP playoff game and you have eclipsed the 2000 season and are just shy of 1991 legendary status. This is fucking fun. The funny thing is all you need is ten wins a year and you are in conversation and you have a chance. Pete just needs to keep this rolling...win 10+ every year and one year you will break through and grab a Rose Bowl or actually snag a win or two in the CFP. Basically what Oregon did for 5 years. Be in the conversation and you have a chance, vice 7-6 incremental progress bullshit.

    Here is the thing about this list, for me at least...

    If this had been every other season on you list, save for 1991, we? would be conference champs going to the Rose Bowel. So I guess it's kind of apples and oranges to compare it in my opinion.

    Is boobs/pumpy, but with not the same med mix as pumpy/steelheader?

    It's a valid poont that the measure of success has changed.

    Fuck I hope I don't have to bump this next week.

    It doesn't fucking matter. You don't get it.

    I. ENJOY. EVERY. FUCKING. WIN.

    I am able to do so because I didn't go 3,400 light years off the rez and back myself into a mental ward corner going into a five year one-note overboard tizzy trying to basically say "I want to watch good football" in such a hyperbolic fashion that now, when good football is being played, I can't myself enjoy it and actively try to ruin it for others by attempting to convince everyone that my pathological world view is some deep cardinal rule and not just irrelevant bitter ranting of an unfunny eccentric.
    Please do not give BoobsFS free therapy. This is a football board.

    I'm 41.... this is either the second or third most successful season of my entire life.

    1990, 1991, and 2000 were all better (so far).

    Win the conference next week then pop off.
    Why do you hate 1984?
    USC won the conference that year.
    Just another example of how difficult it is to go undefeated
