If we lose, more embarrassing. But then the narrative would be that Wyoming is the spooky good G5 team this year.
If we win, not as embarrassing. Boston College almost lost to Holy Cross last week. It shouldn’t have even been possible for FSU to play down to that level.
Yeah, margin of victory/defeat matter with respect to that. Home is usually worth +3 points over a neutral site, so any win by 3 or less is de facto ugly.
I’ve seen enough ugly home wins against mediocre G5 teams (e.g. Tulsa) that I’m kind of numb to them now

Completely agreed. I do think Wyoming are going to shock a team or two this season, even if it isn’t us knock on wood.
Home vs away, though.
