BYU under Bronco has played less than half of their games against teams with losing records, and exactly 1 more game against such competition as Utah did during the same time period. (BYU has a better record against such competition and a better overall record).

You may not believe this, but the "beauty pageant" is how THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONS are determined. BYU has showed up on that radar 5 times of the last 8 years. Less than 15% of college football can claim that.
