Year Prior to Bubba: 3-8

Bubba year 1: 5-7

Bubba year 2: 7-4

Bubba year 3: 9-2

I would say he is deserving to be on this list. 

Bubba year 4: 11-0????

As the coaches add depth to the team and our young guys mature and become more consistent, that is very possible.

I don't think I see 11-0 next year, but that certainly would be awesome.  We play at Utah next year, that will obviously be a tough one.  Actually if we went 9-2 again next year that would be a pretty solid record with next years schedule.  Will still want to win them all though.

After how this years schedule turned out I don't think we can project too much what the difficulty will be til we actually play it.

Any doubt? 
Um yeah.  I'd put Beau Baldwin above Bubba.  And that's not just a homer pick.  This is Beau's best coaching season to date at EWU.  Double digit win season breaking in a new QB. Likely Big Sky Championship (co). The best FCS vs FBS win of any team in the nation (WSU who is probably the best team in the Pac 12 which is a power 5 conference) and he big-time exceeded expectation as EWU was picked to finish 4th or 5th in Big Sky coming off a season with no playoffs.

No doubt Bubba has done a great job this year for you all, but it's not a slam dunk in his favor.  

Of course you are going to homer pick Beau and we'll homer pick Bubba.  I think Bubba gets it based on EWU having a recent track record of success while UND had a break out year and that's a more interesting story.  Just my read on it.  To be Honest, this honor means very little to Bubba in the grand scheme of things.  Best of Luck in the play-offs.

We will likely lose but I am definitely going to this one. Salt Lake City for UND Football and a long weekend sounds pretty cool.

Except the Big Sky has a winning record against the other western/midwest fcs conference. Sorry your bizun's conference mates are overrated. 

[Cratter]

The thing with EWU coach is, yeah he went from no playoffs to a pretty good team, but he's been there for nine years. He has big sky championships, a national title, etc. He would basically get rewarded for having a down year last year and returning to EWU "normalcy" this year. 

While Bubba has taken a UND team that finished 10th in the Big Sky before his arrival to Big Sky Champs and National Championship contenders in only three years. 

The current EWU coach took over a team that made the FCS quarterfinals.

We replace NAU with Montana so that part will be easier.

Now watch, critics will be saying "well UND avoided NAU and Weber so their SOS is down."

40% of the MVFC has a losing record. 38% of the Big Sky has a losing record.

Isn't cherry picking stats that benefit your argument fun?

Mvfc is clearly a one trick pony with 4-5 others riding coattails. Glad you can see it now.
