[Husker] Boise's Chris Peterson is a GENIUS!!! (fwd)

[Wilson, Rick]

Bill Smith asked about Oz's quality wins in first 5 years. As a crude
heuristic, let's define a quality win/loss as a game against another
ranked team. That's debatable, but it is an easy metric.

 

>From Huskerpedia, here are the games vs. ranked opponents (note that
only 20 teams were ranked back then).  Record = 13-8. You can debate how
many 'big wins' are on this five year list.
