What do you think are the appropriate expectations?

Indy Coug

Beat Utah and be a Top 25 team around 50% of the time

Odysseus

6/18/19 8:38am

Be a top 25 team 50% of the time? Then your expectations are too high, IMO.

Indy Coug

6/18/19 8:58am

In today's environment it is much more difficult for BYU to finish in the top 25

DoseOfReality

6/18/19 9:48am

No, just no. Several MWC and AAC teams finish in the top 25. We can too.

Iki_Balam

The max number of losses for a team finishing in the top 25 last year was 4.

That was average for Bronco, btw. KS could easily do that, but he can't.

50% of seasons finishing in the top 25 is unrealistic. Unless we go back to the days

If Kalani or anyone else can get 50% top 25 seasons vs 4-7 P5 teams

Bronco did just that if you count TCU/Utah as P5.
