Completely disagree! Most of the kids aren't thinking 1 game difference. They're looking at 7 - 6 and thinking barely a winning record, where if they were looking at 8 - 5 they'd be thinking:
A) They won their last three games.
B) They beat a team that was ranked #2 earlier in the season, after coming back against PSU.
C) They're on the verge of being a really good team that could easily win 9 or 10 games next year.
