Explaining to my Dad the state of the season and we're both concluding that If we don't beat Idaho tomorrow, we don't make the playoffs. That damn Mercer result is killing us.
Yeah, but their special teams actually played well...and they got 2 picks and a fumble recovery to end the first half...all that and Davis still only lost by 1 point.
Looking at it now, absolutely, with Weber, Utah Tech and Southern Utah all falling on hard seasons - the strength of schedule in conference is also dipping. it's a backloaded schedule for sure - designed to get the Mercer win and beat everybody, including Idaho State, now it's just wtf mode. Gotta win two.
