They were great under Holtz and had a couple of very good seasons under McNeill.

Based on the last 2 years, it looks unlikely that ECU will be that good this year, but there is potential there. Also, if ECU sucks it's not really BYU's problem, because I think BYU expected a better game when it was scheduled, but that doesn't make the game better.

USU and ECU are crap? That's funny.

USU ranked 106 and ECU ranked 110 at the end of the season. They are not good. Not even close.

From what perspective? From a P5 vantage point, yes, both are cupcakes.

Last year, every P5 team had a tougher SOS than BYU, and so did a number of G5s.
