That points to our inability to string together a "special season"

We'll always get wins, but as long as we get a few key losses each season, we'll never sniff a BCS bowl. That's been Bronco's MO since he started. Beat the teams you're supposed to. Maybe a few upset wins here or there. Lose to the teams you're supposed to lose to.

Schedule is part of it. Beating crappy teams and losing to good ones keeps you

Boise State has 22 more wins than BYU over the period- sad.

Yes, let's beat ourselves up comparing us to the #1 team on the list

Sadly, there have been more bad losses than big wins.

Bronco should send thank you cards to Idaho, ID St, NMSU, UNLV, Wyo, NM, etc...

Relative to their neighbors on the list -- BSU/TCU fans should be upset too.

I'm not following. What are you saying?

I'll rephrase

4/20/15 2:22pm

The problem is you're conflating W-L with on-field performance when comparing

I did say that they should blame their SOS instead of on-field performance.

TCU/BSU had zero access to BCS/NY6 bowls until 2005.

Great post, but I'm confused.

Also, Missouri has never gone to a BCS/NY6 bowl.

You cut me deep with that one....I was in a state of off-season amnesia....

Total wins is misleading. BYU stacks up wins against an inferior schedule.

and in this day and age where nearly 80 teams play in bowl games every year...
