We all know, and most other people know (besides Yewts and Dairy Yewts) that BYU belongs and is better than a majority of P5 schools.

BYU is better than Utah except for the 3-4 hours when they play

Yugo

9/19/14 4:07pm

Oh, NO QUESTION we're always the better team; we just don't always win.

BigYfan

BlueFrog

I regret that you see it as that complicated.

Samurai Jack

9/19/14 4:00pm

So by your silly logic, UTSA beat Houston by 20, and BYU beat them by 8, so

BlueFrog

9/19/14 4:03pm

If that's silly logic to you, then tell me what logic you use

Samurai Jack

9/19/14 4:15pm

Nah, Im good with your logic. UTSA is better than BYU and Miami

This year or program history?

CosmosCuzzn

9/19/14 3:48pm

either way, it's a pretty long list

BlueK

9/19/14 3:50pm

About 60% of SEC; 75% of PAC 12 & Big XII; 93% of B1G & ACC

TSH_Rapid_Resp_Team

9/19/14 3:57pm

I have 29 teams - a number unlisted are about on par with BYU as well

Dr T-bone

9/19/14 3:57pm

We could beat any BigXII team this year, except Oklahoma and maybe Baylor

TSH_Rapid_Resp_Team

9/19/14 3:59pm

My list more based upon overall strength of program

Dr T-bone

9/19/14 4:05pm

In all honesty, BYU would probably rank most years in the middle of the pack in

CosmosCuzzn

9/19/14 3:58pm

BYU would be equal to or better than 55-70% of all p5 teams.

idcougarfan

9/19/14 6:34pm

Maryland, Rutgers, Washington State, maybe Cal, Colorado, Iowa State, Kansas

Yugo

Does getting into a conference really have to do with how 'good' you are?

cougarnerd

9/19/14 4:17pm

No, but it gives a program access to a lot more money

idcougarfan

9/19/14 6:35pm

Wouldn't it be easier to make a list of the ones that are better at this point?
