POLL: Assuming BYU wins at least eight games this season, many wins does BYU need to average over the next two seasons for you to feel like the program is making progress?

Not really. Who you play against actually does matter.

11/19/19 7:55am

Yeah it has. Check the numbers, Bronco's schedules were ranked similarly to

Bronco played a bunch of average teams

BYU Fan

Maybe on average. The number of games against top 40 teams has increased a bunch

so you count the tough ones, but the easy ones are all outliers? If we throw

Why the easy ones matter

Brand name bias is just a lazy approach to assessing difficulty of schedule.

Fewer likely wins now. Not hard to see

I want talking about the MWC days. I was referring to early independence.

Show us a schedule where Bronco played 6 P5 schools in one season... I’ll wait

2013 had 7 including the bowl. That was easy. That schedule also included

BYU has at least 8 P5 level opponents next year

BYU Fan

8 plus and BYU is a good program playing at a P5 level- 6 scraping by- 5 or less

Brutal road schedule next year. 2021 is better, but WTY are we playing at

return game in Provo in 2024. Not easy to fill November dates. Georgia

8-5, 9-4, 9-4 is shows improvement, not satisfactory, good or excellent.

Based on historical performance vs P5, 7-5 both years would be good

Coop

Historically BYU wins about 40% of the time vs. P5s.
