I agree with the text of your post, maybe not the subject

Minnesota won 23 games the three seasons before he arrived. They've won 22 games in his three seasons. He's a good fit at smaller schools they can buy into his underdog mentality. I don't think he would be a good fit at Notre Dame.

The Penn State win was big, but he's 2-10 in his career against ranked teams, and #24 Toledo was the other win. If you think it's asking too much for him to beat ranked teams at Western Michigan and Minnesota consider that he's 7-24 against teams that finish with less than six losses in his career, and one of those two wins this season depends on Georgia Southern winning a bowl game. Basically his entire resume is built on beating teams he should have beaten and then beating a team that struggled to beat Pitt and Indiana this year.
