The problem with playing that well over several seasons (2010-2015) sets an expectation level that it will continue. Right or wrong, that has been the bar. Whether you include the 2020 season or not, there's no doubt that there has been a substantial decline since our last Rose Bowl appearance.

Well, short of a national championship, there's not much room to go up from the Rose Bowl.

Like, if the women's basketball team gets to the Final Four next year and loses in the national semifinals, and the following year fails to make the final four, you could argue that it points to a "troubling trend"
