The argument for AAC or indy is what happens when we are good enough.

BYU has never been good enough as an Indy. Probably won't ever be.

TEXAS

6/17/21 8:42pm

That's not the point. But on a normal year when

FieroCoug

6/17/21 8:54pm

So you would go AAC even without the new playoff factor?

6/17/21 8:58pm

Nope I've been on the Indy train until this autobid change. Now I'm on board for

Then you are not a rational actor.

6/17/21 9:20pm

Unless you want a better shot at a national championship which is what you

FieroCoug

Wrong on both counts.

6/17/21 9:42pm

Are fans supposed to be rational? Its all about the playoff possibility for me.

Great news. Our odds of getting in as an independent just improved dramatically.

6/17/21 9:43pm

I dont think they'd let us in at 11-1. MAYBE undefeated.

6/17/21 9:46pm

Why do you think an AAC schedule would be easier?

6/17/21 9:52pm

If anything they'd be the same. And 1 loss or even 2 doesn't DQ you in the AAC

rggee

6/17/21 9:58pm

1 loss doesn’t DQ you in Indy either, unless you only play one good team.

6/17/21 10:03pm

Now you're just trolling. 11-1 Indy BYU ain't sniffing the 12 team playoff.

rggee

6/17/21 10:06pm

I disagree. Here’s hoping we have the chance to find out someday who’s right.

6/17/21 10:09pm

They went from 0 to 0. If the rankings were computer based and unbiased

FieroCoug

6/17/21 9:49pm

BYU has never been good enough to win the AAC over the same period. So what’s the point?

6/17/21 9:05pm

They could compete and could be good enough in the future. Much more likely than as Indy

TEXAS

6/17/21 9:18pm

Maybe. But for many reasons, it’s not obvious that’s the case.

6/17/21 9:31pm

On a year that BYU is good enough to make the playoffs?

Which shows how little the difference in playoff access should matter.

I probably would although considering even in the areas

So if we're not doing this for the playoffs....

We just came off a year where with this format we would make it in the AAC with

FieroCoug

6/17/21 9:02pm

We would not have made it this year. You’re ignoring a lot of inconvenient facts

6/17/21 9:07pm

I wouldn't make the decision based on something that may or may not happen once

Plato

6/17/21 8:58pm

When everything is so close already I think that's the tipping point.
