bottom line was to win 6 games and a win over Boise St gives him 6...

...if nothing changes with the outcomes of the other games. Who knows, in that alternate dimension maybe he gets super cocky after beating a ranked BSU team on the road and manages to lose a game he had otherwise won (possible). You never know with Crowton and the "rather win by 9 than by 2" comment touches on that craziness.

There was going to be a recession in BYU football with or without Crowton

The coach you are denigrating has the stadium named after him.

Crowton had 4 years to create a winner and failed.

With all this NFL talent you speak of, how come Crowton only won 5 games.

The NFL talent was very young in 2004
