At 6-5, weak victories, and a now even a Baylor victory that has reduced importance, it's time for a new coach. Rocco could not get LU over the hump to the playoffs. Gill did. Gill cannot take the team to the next level as Rocco couldn't. Gill's system, his operation is flawed. Coaches, recruiting, game day decisions, the whole system needs a change. An infusion. The AD inherited Gill. He's not his man. It's time to thank Gill for advancing the program. For getting LU to a playoff appearance and a playoff win. To beating a P5 school. All first for the program. But his time and value have come and gone. You're a good man Gill. Just not the best person now.

It's also sad how big of a deal this one small hump is. Only the top 20% get in, but only making it once in 6 years is horrible. Doesn't matter that we've never done it before, that just shows how bad we've always been or how low our expectations are.

KSU wins the BSC outright, getting that "ellusive" AQ to playoffs, as a third year football program. And they didn't have to block a FG to get it. Monmouth, at 9/2 for the season, has a possibility of getting the even more elusive at large. Monmouth may very well return to dumpster fire status, but a lot of people were predicting this progression for KSU since their first year, so i'd expect repeat trips in coming years.
