Yup, and it's so frustrating.

I listened to this national pundit talk about BYU. He confirmed my thoughts.

Seems like a reasonable take.

I disagree. Too many buy into this "P5" crap

Exact reason why playing cincinnati in a NY6 bowl would be a tradegy.

I have to agree. Maybe we should just keep the schedule as is.

Optics count: 12-0 looks a lot better than 3-1

I'm still of the position to schedule at least 1 more game - any game.

He nailed it. Similarly, one thing BYU has going is the eye test. Herbstreit keeps talking about how BYU just looks

I can't argue with any of that. I have felt that way this entire year. NY6 would be a great result.....

It’s about the $$$. They won’t let BYU share in the big money.

pretty much the hand we have been dealt. What amazes me is that you could play Rutgers and win and get more respect

His “Resume” formula is for a normal season and this year is anything but.

B1G teams don't get any bump from beating Rutgers (unless it's a blowout)

Wisc shot to the top 10 after 1 game vs. #107 Illinois (worse than W. KY)

I think Louisville is a P5 (ACC) team

Hard to disagree with any of that.

A weak schedule means you're untested, but not that you're bad.

He kinda contradicts himself. If BYU beats Liberty they'd drop out. But so would Army.

He does. Maybe Army has a better history or just carries more weight?
Florwood
11/12/20 11:06am
True, both Liberty and Army would drop from the rankings. Maybe he feels Army
Benfica1
11/12/20 11:10am
Or maybe he thinks Army is more beatable than Liberty but has the same rep.

I totally agree with the take. We also don't know what's going to happen with

It's reasonable. I honestly don't think BYU is close to playoff competitive

BYU is not part of the CFP. Doesn’t have a vote and doesn’t have a promise
Nat Gas Man
11/12/20 10:10am
Not true. If we finish undefeated with a NY6 win, then run the table next year
zerigke
11/12/20 10:15am
They have no guarantee it belongs to the conferences
Nat Gas Man
11/12/20 10:16am
Zero evidence of that. BYU is #3 in SP+ resume and top 6 in the objective rating
Mr. Scoobs
11/12/20 10:11am
That's why my comments are based on my opinion, not evidence

System shouldn't eliminate undefeated teams winning 45-13 on average. BYU was
Mr. Scoobs
11/12/20 11:07am
I agree with everything he said. Which is why I think we need to add Cincy
archie
11/12/20 10:20am
Cincy won't schedule us. 99% confident.
zerigke
11/12/20 10:26am
A loss to Cincy and we are bowling in Boise
dk4
11/12/20 10:28am
This is the key- risk/reward. Cincy is about as good as we are, if we have to go on the road to play them
BeyondTheMark
11/12/20 11:38am
Far under 50% chance to get into the playoff.
StantonMac
11/12/20 11:42am
Even if BYU beat Cincy, how do they break the top 4?

I agree completely! I don't want to schedule more games, just win our last two
mort
11/12/20 10:40am
Pretty persuasive. Sounds like getting Army in the schedule might be worth the

And we had it 🙁 (Army game at the beginning of the season)

Those are exactly my thoughts...so obviously he's spot on.
D.T. Survivor
11/12/20 11:24am
That is almost exactly how I view it. For CFP, we would likely beat out a 2-loss

If BYU doesn't get into a NY6 game this year... that will once and for all solidify Independence for what it is...

If Liberty beats NC state they will be 8-0 with wins on the road against two

This is all true, but very frustrating. P5 teams aren't willing to play us
here's to hoping
