Your argument is dumb. 20 years ago when only 10 games a year were played then yes 7-9 win team. Now 13 is the norm thus a 10+ win program and a top 12 program all time. So adjust accordingly and you are wrong.....this is where I call you dipshit!!

Very mature analysis. Forget the wins and loses. We had 1 national title in 42 years. We have won 2 and played for another in the last 13. The question posed is whether our new reality is that we compete for national titles every 5-10 years or if we in fact go back to competing for them every 20. It's a reasonable argument and discussion whether you like it or not.

I don't disagree the world is different, but statistics have a pretty interesting way of working out over a large enough sample size.
