Clark's first team went 1-5 against FBS teams who finished the season with a .500 record or better. At the end of the season, all the FBS teams he faced had a combined record of 70-69 (.504)

Dilfer has currently faced ZERO FBS teams with a losing record. The record of the FBS teams he's faced is currently 35-14 (.714).

Comparing the records of the 2 coach's in their first year is apples to oranges

Exactly! Most of Clark's big wins came against Bottom-10 teams. They usually looked clueless when they had to play any Top-50 level team.

That having been said, the last 4 teams on our schedule currently have a losing record

Hopefully, we can win all 4. FAU looked terrible at home last night against UTSA. Temple is bad with PJ Warner out. Navy is not terrible, and North Texas played a great 2nd half last night! Winning all 4 might be unrealistic, but who knows?

2 out of four would at least be fine. Anything more would be a pleasant surprise.

...for the record, who won the BBQ competition? I couldn't find anything anywhere on it...

UAB Marketing must of forgot after that L we took

I'm guessing it's that Memphis father-son team that uses Sun Drop soda for their BBQ

I was just wondering that last night.

The Horsemen, a Bham Stallions supporter club, won first place in the Sauce Competition. No clue who won the ribs competition though.
