Was that 25 or 30 years ago?

Those are some weird views not shared by most BYU and non-BYU fans

We can get back to being a Top 25 program. We're probably Top 50 now

Ulysses14

Byu can be a top 25 program using a G5 schedule.

This is the correct answer ^

BYU can get ranked in the top-25. It's not even close to the same thing

So why do people want to go back to crushing weak schools? Forward not back.

Cougarpolis

9/23/17 5:28pm

Because BYU can't compete with the P5 week in and week out.

mm73

9/23/17 6:29pm

So you want a top 25 ranking, not a top 25 team. Got it....oh, and no thanks.

Cougarpolis

9/23/17 7:11pm

What do you believe is a rational expectation?

Cougstreak

9/23/17 8:52pm

Oh, so you're going to hypothesize that we actually in a P5 conference now?

Cougarpolis

9/24/17 2:25am

BYU cannot become TCU year in and year out.

We did against bad P5 teams.

Cougstreak

9/23/17 11:38pm

Oh. My. Hardly a P5 schedule?

MarylandFan

9/23/17 11:49pm

Real P5 teams never play bad P5 teams. It's in their contract.

Cougarpolis

9/24/17 2:27am

Again, this was missing top of a P5 schedule.

Cougstreak

9/24/17 3:58pm

You're reaching man. That's a quality schedule and we had a solid year.

Cougarpolis

9/24/17 4:49pm

Didn't say it was not good for us but (again) top

Cougstreak

9/24/17 6:25pm

I guess you're making some point that isn't directly at odds with mine

MarylandFan

9/24/17 9:17pm

I meant our schedule has not had teams from the top of the P5 conferences and...

Cougstreak

9/25/17 1:15am

Ok. Nobody was making that claim, but great.

Cougarpolis

9/25/17 6:43am

Yes it was. It was stated we have had a P5 schedule. We don't have the top tier

Cougstreak

9/25/17 8:02am

would you accept "schedule full of P5 teams"? Not sure what your issue is.

Cougarpolis

9/25/17 8:35am

No issue. Simply stating that those who believe we have a P5 schedule....

Cougstreak

9/25/17 9:55am

Would you agree that we have a schedule with several P5 teams on it each year?

Cougarpolis

9/25/17 10:12am

Yes we play several P5 teams each year

Cougstreak

9/25/17 10:34am

I assume you mean that last year, while full of P5...

MarylandFan

9/25/17 11:11am

My point is I am not ready to pound my chest by beating bad P5 teams.

Cougstreak

9/25/17 11:40am

Some people seem to think these are P5 equivalent schedules, they are far short.

DoseOfReality

9/25/17 11:31am

I don't think anybody thinks that. Can you prove this? Post a link perhaps?

Cougarpolis

9/25/17 12:35pm

Read CB much? Read above.

Cougstreak

9/25/17 10:07pm

Will you please point out the post that says we have a P5 schedule. Don't see it

Cougarpolis

9/26/17 9:15am

Oh, wait I think I found the one you must be talking about, I guess

One of several posted in the past. Having a P5 schedule infers...

Cougstreak

It's kind of sad when you can't interpret that people are happy to have 6 P5

BYURider

Because there are Mormons around the globe that watch.

IronPotato

9/23/17 8:34am

Also because we attract more fans than G5 teams and willing to play at of times.

I couldn’t tell you who won the MWC, the AAC, MAC, Sun Belt etc last year
