This is BYU's opponents' schedule the week before they play us. So, people can say BYU will struggle playing a P5 schedule because of how we're doing against these opponents the past couple of years, but the reality is our opponents don't play a P5 schedule before they play us.

For comparison, here's Utah's opponents' schedule the week before their Utah matchup:

at Arizona (#67)
vs. Portland State (#160)
at Stanford (#5)
at Arizona State (#49)
at UCLA (#16)
vs. California (#56)
at Washington State (#57)
vs. Oregon State (#79)
BYE (same week as Utah's bye)
vs. Stanford (#5)
vs. Washington State (#57)

That's a MUCH different SOS than what BYU's opponents play the week before they play us. Even the one BYE on the schedule lines up with Utah's BYE week.
