Half the teams will lose their bowl games. IF we go to the Vegas Bowl, we will play a PAC12 team that will not be a pushover. It will be a good team capable of winning the game. We'll have to play well to win it.

So I'll take the 9 wins, would of course rather be undefeated, and consider it a great accomplishment. Most teams didn't win that many this year.

Now I'm sure we will win the bowl game, no matter what bowl and no matter the opponent. But I'll be happy and optimistic regardless.

I've never advocated firing Bronco. That's not my call and it would be pointless anyway since he has now and always has had solid backing from those whose call it is. When Bronco leaves, it will be his decision. The Fire Bronco thing can only be harmful to the BYU program. I want nothing to do with it.

Not to say I've been happy with every word and action from Bronco. He's confident, competitive and can be pretty hardheaded and does things his way. Sometimes mistakenly, as he has acknowledged. But he has fixed things that needed fixing and is running a very good program.
