Coach Prime may have ended up in a place, while a beautiful place, it has been a wasteland since long before there was ever a thought of a college playoff to decide the National Champion. The last time they were relevant was the early 90's which included a National Title in 1990. These days it is easier to go from 1-11 to bowl eligible. Particularly in a Big 5 conference like the Pac. 12 soon to be the Pac 10 in 2024 with USC and UCLA moving to the big ten. It used to be whom and when you beat in the 90’s when deciding on bowl participation but still having to win a number of games. Coach Prime’s Buffaloes need only to win six games regardless in or out of conference. I’m not sure he knew what he was taking on with teams like Stanford, Oregon, Washington and Utah. With a favorable non-conference schedule and a few upsets in conference I can almost guarantee there will be some calls from The NFL that he cannot ignore because he’ll keep losing assistants to other schools or the NFL. All of this for a man who coached 32 college football games. G©
