What a multi-score loss would do to this team

No one is going to throw in the towel; there is still a full month of football for this group to win some games and finish the year strong, but going into the bye at 4-4 with a road trip to Texas Tech on deck is not ideal. No matter if it's a one-point loss, or in the simulation's case of losing by 18, it will still be a big punch to the gut.
