Cal's best win is probably the WK2 game over Auburn. Not sure what their dumbest loss is. I think there are a couple candidates.

Those wins numbers are meaningless until you factor out wins against FCS and lower*. (I believe FBS can schedule a D2 team but I am unaware if a match up of FBS vs D2 occurred this season). I believe the new Pac 12 will be thought of as better than MWC leftovers. And UNLV will eventually leave the MWC also. And referencing 6 wins when by default you can schedule 2 (most only do 1 but still) virtually guaranteed wins against FCS and lower is just not an accurate way to assess a conference’s strength. Head to Head in non-conference is the only way imo. But perception when there are not that many games is the one that matters. Because that is what will keep a 1 loss Army team out of the playoffs. Army’s blowout loss to Norte Dame looks worse than Boise’s to Oregon. But they struggled more recently to beat a bad Wyoming team 17-13 while we blew them out 44-17. Boise all had a close call to a bad Nevada team 28-21. Both of these games were in November. Your perception is just as valid as anyone else’s but the majority of power brokers will still probably view AAC as behind the new Pac 12. And it won’t even be close if the Pac gets UNLV while retaining everyone else they took from MWC.

Not bad #59 only behind Memphis at #31 in American Rankings McNeese #74 High Point #195 Minnesota #155; Oregon St: #49; Utah St: #14

Yep. 0.500 series. FYI, Memphis' NET is 31

Utah St is #14 in NET. I don't believe in moral victories, I will just say this game could have gone either way.
