I've seen the "just win" mantra on CB since Indy was announced...
Apparently the team hasn't gotten the memo?

Is that Jason Buck on Criddle right now? Respect him, but completely disagree.

New Mexico was a legit sellout in '06 when a MWC title was on the line

I don't think independence and attendance are correlated though. Attendance

Our worst attendance since 2003 would sell out their stadium.

P5 conference...bad argument

That was because we were 9-2 and fun to watch
jkccoug
9/20/17 3:43pm
BYU was also 8-2 that season, and beat a highly ranked TCU team.

BYU lost to Arizona & BC to start 2006, as Indy that season would've been over
CaliWG
9/20/17 3:53pm
I highly doubt that it was the conference title that made them play hard the rest of the year...

They are some of the best seasons because of the momentum from winning streaks
SUAVO
9/20/17 4:05pm
Did the fans storm the field vs UNM because of the winning streak?
CaliWG
9/20/17 4:08pm
Ya, storming the field is a great indication of program excitement
SUAVO
9/20/17 4:56pm
Uh, yeah, they are. You don't see many "un excited" fans storm the field.
Ktar

Plenty of crappy programs upset a team and storm the field. It's an indication
SUAVO
9/20/17 7:27pm
Good point, I agree.
Ktar
9/20/17 8:23pm
But storming the field vs UNM wasn't about one win, it was about a conf title

Those seasons were over regardless at that time anyway. MCW conference

You believe BYU got better because they were playing for a MWC title?

I'm saying fans remained engaged because there was a conf title to play for

We were finally good after years of suck. Nationally relevant again.

2006? The year we went 11-2 and were ranked? Had TCU and Utah in the conference?
PJMort
9/20/17 3:48pm
You mean 8-5 Utah? Or #25 TCU? Those weren't the same TCU & Utah teams as '08-10
CaliWG
9/20/17 4:08pm
Yes I mean UTAH and TCU. Does it really matter that Utah went 8-5?

He's talkin out his butt, I'm convinced. Doesn't care about BYU's success 1 iota

Recruiting has been worse since we left the MWC.
Turbine
9/20/17 3:48pm
Since Utah started recruiting against us with a P5 label you mean
jkccoug
9/20/17 3:53pm
BYU doesn't go head to head with Utah near enough to make the difference.
Turbine
9/20/17 3:54pm
Do you follow recruiting...we go head to head for most Poly recruits.

It's not utah hurting you
BigT801
9/20/17 4:06pm
Maybe so. But still a function of Utah going to P12 IMO.
jkccoug
9/20/17 5:17pm
I think it is though! I don't have time
BigT801
9/20/17 6:33pm
No I agree with you. Its common for teams to recruit harder in their conference

BYU has some of the most unbalanced schedules in CF. So hard to "just win".
