Overall the MWC is an anemic .224 against BCS/P5 teams. The MWC is faring much better at .500 going 11-11 in bowl games.
A statistic worth noting for AFA in the MWC:
BCS/P5 games 13 years of Calhoun - 10
BCS/P5 games 8 years of DeBerry - 16
Calhoun 0 home games
DeBerry 3 home games (1-2)
Calhoun 6 road games (1-5)
DeBerry 12 road games (5-7)
Calhoun 2-2 bowl games
DeBerry 1-0 bowl games
DeBerry had to play Army/Navy so that is not an excuse for Calhoun. Perhaps AFA is trying to ensure Calhoun has a better chance at 1-2 more wins OOC per year since they don’t have the same budget issues other MWC teams do when it comes to scheduling games.
