Basically, what this tells us is that
they dominate their conference, which is very, very weak with the
exception of Fresno every once in a blue Moon and Hawaii for 2 years
with Colt Brennan,

don't schedule jack OOC (at least one FCS opponent every year and
only 9 games vs Big 6 [4 were bowls]),

are average against the Big 6,

aren't great when coming east to play Big 6 teams,

are average against ranked opponents,

put up good defensive numbers against poor offenses,

put up great offensive numbers against horrible defenses,

and are average against top 30 defenses.
