Yes going undefeated and still being in the Miami bowl would be a slap in the face - but its a slap in the face because everything else was awesome.

Worst thing that could happen to BYU this year

Who knows. There was s a lot of hype around BYU and Taysom and no NY6 bowl would

QuinneyCoug

I think losing the rest of our games would be worse.

Utah in a NY6 bowl?

Cougar TD

I heard that bit. My sense is Monty took that position just for that segment

Rivers Cuomo

Esp. this year, when the at large bids tighten up due to bowl rotations it is

Bluedomination

That wouldn't be the worse thing, IMO

Is that they all die in a plane crash, and their families all kill themselves

Your post reminds me of this Calvin and Hobbes strip:

This would be the equivalent to

I can imagine quite a few things worse than that.

9/18/14 9:14am

One loss would be much worse.

There is no way that would happen this year. Zero, zilch, zip, nil,

Broda yet suffers from issues with denial.

Samurai Jack

9/18/14 3:37pm

You seriously think a 12-0 BYU would not be in the top 12?

Broda

9/18/14 4:26pm

I have actually gone over this quite a few times on CB....

Samurai Jack

9/18/14 4:41pm

So you're quoting Matich who said if BYU wins each game by 1 then they

Broda

9/18/14 7:59pm

Once again, quoting BCS history which has NOTHING to do with the CFP system.

Samurai Jack

9/18/14 8:08pm

The BCS is a much better indicator than anything else.

Broda

9/18/14 8:38pm

Hopeless here it appears. You just cited a jump in the AP poll...

Samurai Jack

9/18/14 8:46pm

I find it funny that you think the selection committee polls are somehow going

Broda

You are loading your question...

Samurai Jack

i then share that denial with broda

Even worse would be to go 12-0 and then *lose* in the Miami bowl.

cougarmeister

9/18/14 9:19am

Loose to Savannah State

HangookCoug

9/18/14 9:21am

If that happens then we need to join a conference, even if its the Mountain West

BYU81

9/18/14 9:27am

I'll take it ... would be an awesome season

tassell

9/18/14 9:29am

Nope - at least one thing I can think of that would be worse than that........

BoiseBlue

9/18/14 9:32am

That is not the worst thing- at all

thaws

9/18/14 9:41am

Unless Taysom leaves

Steve Young left.

Gotta win the bowl game too. The opponent in the Miami Bowl - Cincinnati? ECU?

Yfan4Ever

9/18/14 9:52am

This is may be an undefeated BYU's easiest path to the NY6 for the next 3 years

boscatar

9/18/14 10:47am

Miami Beach Bowl would likely be a ranked opponent. Not so bad.

boscatar

9/18/14 10:43am

Worst? Bwahahahaha!

I was thinking that a meteor striking LES during a game

A high-ranked BYU team will get serious interest from many bowls...

(Private)

9/18/14 11:26am

That would result in a lot of publicity.

doubleduce

9/18/14 12:00pm

It could happen. BYU has no guarantees as an independent. I think it would

If we are undefeated we have a better chance of getting in the playoffs

Getting into the Fiesta Bowl and get rolled because up the point played

reasonlogic

Undefeated BYU will finished ranked no worse than #8

cougarbart

9/18/14 3:59pm

You suffer from long term experience with the AP poll and Coaches poll, not to

Samurai Jack

9/18/14 4:18pm

Are you suggesting the AP/BCS were somehow favorable to nonAQ teams?

cougarbart

9/18/14 4:31pm

If we are left out of a playoff

PolarisPrime

9/18/14 4:33pm

The worst thing?

BayUte

9/18/14 4:03pm

on the flip side

9/18/14 4:21pm

No way that happens. 12-0 = one of the 4 BCS bowls or whatever they're called

mindzeYe

9/18/14 5:20pm

You are not exactly sounding like one in the know.

Samurai Jack

NY6. got it. Still the same original BCS bowls +2 new ones
