My review of national media and P5 conference statements make the issue pretty clear in my eyes.

I would love for you to be right. Truly. I hope I am wrong.

To me, the facts say otherwise.

8-4 - this is blasphemy

Dr T-bone

8/22/14 3:45pm

8-4 against this schedule would be a disappointment.

newey-west

8/22/14 3:48pm

12-0 we will NOT be in Miami in December.

"Emphasis on Conference Champions" No way 2 P5 Champs left out of the playoff

DoseOfReality

8/22/14 3:58pm

We would not be in the playoff. We'd be in the Peach/Fiesta/Cotton Bowl.

rggee

There is no way that BYU is making the playoff this year.

Does 12-0 put BYU in the top 10?

newey-west

8/22/14 4:04pm

Absolutely

rggee

8/22/14 4:06pm

There are 12 slots - 4 in the playoff, 2 will be conference based, 1 G5,

rggee

8/22/14 4:08pm

Good catch. I stand corrected.

newey-west

8/22/14 7:45pm

Thats what I was thinking, I think Boise could be a win, also UCF.

BRONCOUGAR

"comparing them to the other 65 Big 5 conference teams" SMOOOOKE!!!!

rggee

8/22/14 3:49pm

He's right and yet so wrong.

lawboy

8/22/14 3:51pm

Beat Houston and lose to VA? Ha!

rggee

8/22/14 3:53pm

Even utah fans would bet over on that. 8-4. Really?

me'a pango cougars

8/22/14 4:08pm

i heard this guy ramble on and on on the CougarCenter podcast

nashty

8/22/14 4:26pm

Plus, how is he evaluating talent?

mogelijk

8/22/14 6:16pm

I have been preaching 9-3. 8-4 is too low.

The Lone Wolf

8/22/14 4:43pm

He predicted 7-5 last year, I believe.

SoCalCoug

8/22/14 4:50pm

So since he said 7-5 and we were 8-4, then we should be at least 9-3 this year

Undefeated

8/22/14 4:58pm

I think BYU gets Boise St. Other than that, I can agree with his thought

BlueForLife

Most important quote from above:

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 5:31pm

most byu fans don't believe 12-0 would get a playoff spot but a ny6 spot.

Undefeated

8/22/14 6:25pm

An undefeated BYU won't get a NY6 spot over a P5 conference runner up

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 6:35pm

(The above was meant as a response to "Undefeated")

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 6:36pm

Strength of schedule won't really even be determined until the end of the season

rggee

8/22/14 6:57pm

The committee's "rankings" will start being being released in October.

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 7:05pm

If we are undefeated and left out I will be shocked and outraged.

rggee

8/22/14 7:15pm

I will be outraged but not shocked.

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 7:18pm

#1: We only lose here to 1 team (2 max) out of the 5 at large spots.

rggee

8/22/14 7:21pm

For instance

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 7:30pm

An undefeated BYU would absolutely be taken over a two loss P5 team.

rggee

8/22/14 7:33pm

Keep drinking the Kool Aid.

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 7:36pm

First we have to actually go undefeated. But if that happens and we are not

rggee

8/22/14 7:39pm

I guess I have more faith in humanity (or just the committee) than you

rggee

8/22/14 7:40pm

Concerning the committee, yes, you do.

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 7:45pm

BYU would definitely have a shot of jumping a 2 win P5 team

Dr T-bone

8/22/14 8:09pm

Your presentation actually makes the opposite case as I see it.

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 8:18pm

If you consider wins only and not losses

Dr T-bone

8/22/14 8:25pm

I wish they would do it that way.

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 8:59pm

I've already hashed this out too many times before with others and have shown

Undefeated

8/22/14 8:06pm

"In certain years"?!?!

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 8:21pm

Why are we !! ?

Undefeated

8/22/14 8:33pm

The crux of the argument

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 8:38pm

sos and win loss record together. not just sos. all 2 loss teams vs an unbeaten

Undefeated

Guys... think about it.

what you fail to consider is

DJROSS

8/22/14 9:32pm

What SOS formulas are you speaking of?

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 9:35pm

CFP will use sos until

DJROSS

8/22/14 9:39pm

Is this your opinion or is there documentation of this?

Samurai Jack

8/22/14 9:46pm

Oh no he didn't

Reedme

8/22/14 8:10pm

He went off recruiting class ratings. BYU has consistently had poor class

CougarPilot

8/22/14 11:04pm

That's my point, once players start playing recruiting class rankings are useles

Reedme

Preach on brother...I couldn't agree more.
