Or perhaps we are now so nationally irrelevant we do not even deserve ridicule...

After we lose at FAU, we will probably make the list.

I figured we would be on the list after LSU puts a Benjamin on us with their 3rd string playing the entire game...

Right now there is no serious entry on the list that has 2 wins and no one on the waiting list with two wins.

If you want on you are going to have to excel at losing.

The funny part is that there seems to be a lot of people who would sickly enjoy getting on the list - good to have high goals for the ol' alma mater.

Not really. I think people make the jokes about it as a coping mechanism for the fact that we are having a pretty rough year. I dont think anyone wants our team (or any fan of ANY program) to be considered one of the WORST teams and implying such kinda ridiculous.

Ridiculous? Look at the self masochism all over the board- what is ridiculous to you and me may not be right for some. It would validate more than a few opninios expressed to land on this list - and honestly, the fact that the worst offense in the country by 16 yards cannot get on there is odd.

FWIW (not much I know), I do not think we could beat Duke, Syracuse, MSU (ha - its the 5 spot I know), or Temple.

All of the others would be close and could go either way.

Such is the case for me. I'm a glass-is-half-empty guy anyway. When I predict a 77-0 loss at LSU, and they just squeak past us in a 65-3 nailbiter, it isn't as bad.

edit: I still predict a loss at FAU though.
