ESPN Corporate does NOT want big wins

Big wins may influence voters, but they don't necessarily drive up ratings. Hard fought games do that.

ESPN follows the $$$. ESPN commentators follow their bias. Winning solves all

This ranking suggests ESPN commentators think quite highly of BYU

If we were to go undefeated this year the PR train would be a wreck ala cartel.
