and the NBC clocked showed 1 while the stadium clock showed 0 when the first one was incomplete and we made a statement like this. I highly doubt we would have the Athletic staff, Stephen A. Smith and Klatt backing us up with this much fervor. The national media would more be shrugging saying "don't be in a position to lose to WMU and you have nothing to complain about."

Is what it is. Have a 10 win season and it's a footnote or lose a ton and it's also a footnote. Be sitting at 9-3 in December and this thing is coming back to bite us in the ass.
