enough so that a loss to a team with a losing record at the time didn't drop us out of the polls. In hindsight, as lame as Saturday was, it may have been the best choice if we're looking at it objectively. Also, an ASU loss would have elevated the Pac 12 and removed all the "BYU is in first place in the Pac 12 South" tropes that were even being repeated on national pregame shows.
