Let me begin this season’s second installment of The Monday Tuesday Wednesday Perspective with a brief look back at the non-conference schedule.
The first week of the 2017 season wasn’t exactly an inspiring opener. They struggled with a Buffalo team that is really not very good.

But as previously published, I wasn’t terribly concerned because this is all a process, even if it wasn’t exactly an inspiring first game.
Week 2 was against a team from a Power 5 conference who appears to be a very weak team from a Power 5 conference.
