It depends on the year. It’s not in the best long-term interest of the program to go out and get spanked against Ohio State (like VPI did) while playing 24 freshmen. Particularly if the scheduling of such game could potentially have an impact on a wind total that makes the difference between a bowl.
It’s in the best long-term interest of the program to win enough games to qualify for a bowl and be able to get an extra month of practice for a team that only has a couple of dozen upperclassman.
