Would you have rather lost to Wyoming or South Carolina again?

If you would have told me we would be sitting at 3-1 at the end of Sept. then I would have bet the farm that we started out 3-0 and lost to SCe again. Instead the opposite happened and we started out 0-1 before going on a 3 game tear.
Looking back on the month I'm glad it worked out the way it did. Don't get me wrong, I'd much rather be 4-0 but if we had to lose one then getting it out of the way turned out to be for the best. I was in the "our season might be over" camp after the WY loss but the WV win brought me right back. The South Carolina win was a much needed hump that HCBO and this program needed to overcome. Plus we have the excuse of the altitude for the WY loss. Have you ever moved to a high altitude area? It takes about a month to acclimate.
If you could choose, would you have rather won the WY game and lost the SC game or won WY and lost SC?

We are 3-1 regardless. So would you rather that 1 be against SEMO?

Better to lose to a noncon team than a SEC team. Mizzou still has a shot at the east. It will probably take help from Auburn and A&M to get past Georgia

South Carolina has done about as much as Wyoming in the past few years so it boils down to conference loss vs non-conference loss. I'll take the season opener vs an altitude based opponent loss than one to SC.
