Expecting a playoff berth once every four years is delusional too. The playoff has been around for 8 years. A team making it once every four years would have made it twice. There are only 6 teams that have made it at least twice. There are only 13 teams that have made it all.Maybe 1 more? Honestly we aren’t a program that expects to win natty’s. Our recruiting took a jump last year with tuck and this year he is making another big jump but it’s still way behind Ohio state. If the playoff stays at 4 maybe a playoff appearance every 4ish years while being in the mix for the big ten title on a regular basis will be fine with all but the most delusional fans.
Realistically as long as he continues to beat Michigan on a regular basis most fans will be happy.
