Okay but I wouldn’t count them as losses.

I wonder if these people who count a close win as a loss also count a close loss as a win? I’m guessing no.
Some people are only happy when they’re unhappy. I don’t understand it, but it’s real.

It doesn’t look like the point was close wins. It was about the schedule.

I mean, it’s a little bit of both. If the 2021 team had just absolutely throttled the weak teams on their schedule like the 2011 team did, my assessment would be different. The only team that kept it within a score of the 2011 team and wasn’t a division winner or better was UTEP on the road, while Navy, SMU, and ECU all kept it within one score at TDECU stadium.
I don’t know where the notion that I’m not counting the wins as wins is coming from; they were all certainly wins, they just weren’t as convincing as I’d expect to see out of a 12-2 team that’s supposedly good enough to win a NY6 game. IMO, you have to either win convincingly or beat good teams to be considered great. 2011 did the former, 2015 did the latter, and 2021 did neither.
Embarrassing but true.
We would have to add a different women’s sport or ditch a men’s sport.
If it did, it probably inadvertently came from me. I was a bit of an azz but i didn’t mean to imply that is what you said.
