Where are we Wednesday: Content with having nothing to lose

It’s okay to be excited. Really. The expectation for this season was not to be on top of the conference, so before we get into the fact that, yes, the fourth quarter came a little too close to a disappointing loss, enjoy having an even record. Enjoy that it was worth watching through the fourth quarter. Enjoy that the past few weeks have had positive takeaways: being able to hang with Penn State for a half, being able to launch a second-half comeback against Minnesota, being able to actually win. Most importantly, enjoy the fact that this is a bye week, and a recharge is what the Wildcats need.
