Dykes/Franklin beat weak Illinois, Virginia, and Ole Miss teams. He choked against a weak Miss. State team and an average TCU team.
I think you are a little rough on Dykes becaue of the way he left. I get it. But, we didn't KNOW those P5 teams were weak until after we beat them. I believe Tech was the pre-game underdog in each of those games. And the Virginia game was certainly no cakewalk for LA Tech.
