And we are doing that with G-5 resources

Your recruiting restrictions are also the reason you are a IA team.

This a joke? BYU would be on the same level with no honor code

Dissenter

6/28/17 12:16pm

With no honor code they wouldn't be BYU.

the LDS connection =/= the honor code

Right, but you're actively owned by a religion who cares about that stuff.

While that sounds bad, it's better than every G5 team except for Boise and Houston

Navy?

and better than many P5 teams too

If we beat Utah at least half the time our record is better than .500

Not when your only wins over Utah were in "hypothetical" games they don't.

If Utah hadn't moved to the Pac, it wouldn't be a P5 game.

Hahaha. I haven't seen that one before. Awesome.

2014 should have been 12-0- 3 P5 wins and 9 G5 wins- it will always be the season I hold Bronco the most accountable for

6/28/17 12:27pm

Even after losing your starting QB in game 5?

Indy Coug

6/28/17 12:31pm

I do because the rest those 4 were to poor G5 teams

SouthernBlueBlood

6/28/17 12:48pm

There were some hard losses to take in there, but overall to expect a 12-0 season

Indy Coug

6/28/17 12:54pm

Look at those teams we lost to that season- with a backup QB we still should have won- not ridiculous at all-

SouthernBlueBlood

6/28/17 1:12pm

The 5 teams we lost to were 48-19. Boise had 12 wins, Memphis/USU had 10, UCF had 9

Indy Coug

6/28/17 1:31pm

Boise St I'll agree to but I didn't include Memphis. That was a bowl game which I know you know

SouthernBlueBlood

6/28/17 1:45pm

OK but your standard is 12-0 and losing to 16th ranked Boise on the road

Indy Coug

6/28/17 1:47pm

How about 11-1 then? Come on 11-1 should have been the end record

SouthernBlueBlood

6/28/17 3:41pm

You'd better hope Tanner stays healthy this year, because we could repeat 2014

What's the H-R situation and travel distances on those?

Exactly.

And play them all in gauntlet fashion usually

Twin Roots

6/28/17 1:03pm

All p5 teams play the gauntlet

It's still a losing record at home in the P5 games (6-7). But I think the

That's a 42% win percentage. That means were slightly below average compared

Some notable P5 with worse than 42% win percentage v. P5 in the last 5 years:

boscatar

6/28/17 3:54pm

Very interesting indeed

Machiavelli

6/28/17 3:58pm

Also, don't we tend to play average or better P5 teams...

ZooBlue

Not really.

60% were bowl teams.
