These links show side by side, week by week each AP poll for 96, 01, 08
I know 08 is painful, but this weeks new poll was a reminder that BYU is...... well, BYU.
I was surprised we are 21 after the Houston game... but if we just win, we will rise nearly everyweek, and rise faster than other G5... In 08 a 7-0 Utah team was ranked 5 spots lower than a 6-0 BYU.
These years also show the very likely outcome if we go undefeated....we will rise and hover outside the top 4, and once again be at the forefront of additional "tweaks" in the system (after 96, and 01)to allow better inclusion for the "have-nots" which hopefully will get it to an 8 team and a true playoff.
Just Win!!! It's already been a fun ride... lets hope it continues. RISE AND FREAKING SHOUT!
