Haters won't count this win since the PSU loss will bump SMU out of the top 10.
Another top 10 win for franklin

I said it before, just watch, it doesn't matter who Penn State beats except for two teams, Oregon and Ohio State, for some fans
beat SMU and Boise St? they suck
beat Notre Dame? over rated and lost to Northern Illinois, didn't play anybody good
beat Georgia? QB hurt and the SEC was down this year
some fans won't give any credit for a big win unless we beat one of those two specific teams this year

ND and UGa will count
We're 10.5 point favorites over Boise...that's not a big win. That's merely expected like today.
When the bracket came out we had to make the semis or the season was a disappointment. Anything after that is a big win.
Problem with that it’s hard to beat a top 10 team as underdog. Boise is top 10 in all 3 polls. We are legit top 5. Should be favored. Still a top 10 win.
Currently favored by 10.5
Franklin's issue is top 5 teams not top 10
And should Boise really be a top 10 team?
Still top 10 win. This spread is why I feel the record is overblown. It is hard to win as less talented underdog. That is in line with his record.
What he has to start beating teams as good or better than his team
Boise State and SMU don't change that narrative
His success when he's favored is awesome but he has to start winning those elite, top-tier games
Eh, bleep them right in their bleeping behinds. Even if we beat Oregon and OSU, they'd still find something to whine about. "Oh, you did it once, but can you do it again? You already lost once to them, so you're only 1-1! Look at the cumulative record against top teams ... 1 win doesn't matter!"
They're poo individuals ... don't pay them any mind. You fight with them and win? You still end up with poo all over you.
What he has to do is beat the team in front of him for the next month. Nothing more, nothing less.
While I commend Franklin for having the team prepared - the WR were again a pathetic liability and going for it on 4th down at your own 20 was idiotic. Thankfully the defense balled out. we beat their ass and Franklin deserves some credit. SMU isn’t a bad team, but playing up north in the cold in a loud environment just isn’t something they were prepared for.
SMU QB crapped the bed! 2 picks six! Poor guy had Robersonitis. Good win. Take it move on. Now stop the nations best runner with four weeks rest. They can’t keep having these bad starts… We survive.
