This is the equivalent of being in a G5 conference without the affiliation.
Defeats any rationale for being Independent.
No, BYU is doing it right. The team just needs to do better against the G5 teams we play.

This years schedule/winning/rankings has made me change my mind on scheduling.

So...basically, how we scheduled in 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2019

This year can’t be the model. We won’t get respect in normal years with this

Winning gets us respect.

Winning with this kind of schedule in a non Covid 19 year gets us disrespect for

Nobody is advocating for a schedule without P5s
Blue Cat

We need a SOS equivalent to most P5s.

No we don't. Why would we?

I want us to be who we have always been, a big fish in a small pond. We have more clout than BSU because of our history

Things have changed. P5 G5 gap is going to get bigger. It's incredibly short
LiveCoug
10/19/20 8:54am
In your mind maybe but previous, recent seasons don't agree. G5 teams get ranked, play in NY6 games and get louds of
TheLoneCougar
10/19/20 9:31am
Just to be clear, the ultimate goal is P5. I just think the path to getting there isn't going 7-5 every year.
TheLoneCougar
10/19/20 10:00am
6-8 P5s per season should be the goal
LiveCoug
10/19/20 5:55am
In 2017, we only played 4 P5 teams. We lost 5 games to G5 teams + UMass.

That same team that couldn't get the ball across midfield against LSU

It’s not crappy scheduling it’s strategic scheduling
Blue Cat

In other words, crappy scheduling. No. 6-8 P5s, including low level P5

You say "why settle for 9-4 or 8-5 when the same caliber of team could

I've not seen much drop off except in experience. BYU has the athletes.

Boise State lives on this model. If we sustain our rankings (11/12) we’ll ...

Let’s not worry about what happens if we go undefeated.

Exactly. They’re factoring in our intent.

FWIW, Liberty is now #31 and #33 in the polls with a 5-0 record

Right. The goal for Co Carolina should be to get ranked. That's not our goal.

In line with Sliver, rankings this year are a one off

Agree 100%.. embrace it. BYU can’t compete with how they were scheduling

Here's a perfect schedule (or something close to it)
wiscougarfan
10/19/20 7:26am
So, a p5 schedule.
StalwartBraveTrue
10/19/20 8:28am
No, a good schedule. Half P5, Half G5.
wiscougarfan
10/19/20 9:50am
we'll get fewer top recruits with a worse schedule

We could give ourselves a chance to be in the mix with about 4 P5’s,

More than anything it’s the timing of the p5s. This goes to show that the p5

I like the games more than I like a ranking so I'm not with you on this one.

This year is an outlier. Not the norm. Let's remember that.

Would ESPN continue to pony up $$$ if BYU were to schedule like this season?

Nope

Why do many think the "weaker" P5's would want BYU OOC? Don't they want wins?

If Indy is the chosen course, keep scheduling like this year and next

Nah....once we are we get to the end of the year at 10-0 they reject us anyway.

Man, the 2-3 P5 mentality really sucks.

So you prefer the mediocrity of being ignored? Fair enough.

Yes, LiveCoug would rather play 6-8 P5s and be .500 with no national exposure, attention, or accolades. Getting lost in
