As shared in other thread, record of vanquished 2023 foes sits at 9-21.

In Hens' favor, only 5 current Top-10 teams have a win over a now-ranked opponent.

It would be 14-16 if we had just let those teams win when they played us. 8)

Hey, New Hampshire is No. 26 and 2-4 Eastern Washington is still receiving votes as well.

Just win, baby!

It has made me chuckle the past two seasons when the Phi Eagles were 8-0 and 5-0 respectively and the pundits were questioning their strength of schedule. Well, take away the 13 losses the Eagles had pinned on them, and what was the opponents' records then, dipsh*ts?

Brothers, it's just the facts. It's no different than saying the home schedule/CAA is slop, etc.

It is what it is. Just win.
