That was the clear statement by the committee

You gotta love how the B12 stunk it up in their week 1 OOC games,

I’ll say it one last time, BYU needed to get SDSU on the schedule this week.

Do you think they just could have and chose not to?

I think we chose to focus on Washington.

If an undefeated independent gets #14, a two-loss indie doesn’t make the list.

Because you have to have a contract to accept a game. Would have easily been discovered that they didn’t

No because people are stupid and probably think uw took Utah because BYU wouldn’t play

Video just released of UW’s response when BYU asked for a guarantee.

Chances SDSU “has a Covid outbreak” and has to cancel the BYU game? I’d say high. BYU is ticked and ready to destroy.
