1) Nobody thought we'd be where we are now under Franklin, not this soon. The truth is WE ARE truly BACK. We are again among the elite of the B10 and the FBS. To be honest, I didn't think I'd see it in my lifetime. And
2) As I have observed before (and Phil agreed with me), starting last season and continuing through this season, the refs have been calling our games fairly (today was a good case in point with the dreaded O"Neill officials). I can't explain why they were against us for the first 20+ years in the conference or why they haven't been for the past 2 years but I'll take it. For some reason, and maybe I'm totally wrong, but I feel as though the conference finally accepts us.
3) And now, we can look forward to kicking B10 butts next year.
