If we were G5 and went undefeated and got left out of the playoffs, I’d still be ecstatic because we went undefeated and we’d be ranked in the top 15. I don’t think playoff acccess should be at the top of our minds anytime soon.

BYU was like 9 points away from going undefeated as an independent just 2 years

It’s easier to meet low expectations, why not go FCS

Yep, “strength of schedule” will exclude only non P5 teams with sole exception of ND

The schedule isn't that rough next year. We only play 5 P5 teams, where as P5 te

Sick of having everyone (especially on here where we should know better) act like every P5 is automatically

The P5s do, and they take credit for those wins. BYU can to. And should.

Sure, but that is why an undefeated Notre Dame team gets in and why byu would no

Legit by names of who we played, but not by strength...

We should be fighting to be given same rights as G5 in playoff system

BYU has no voice because it is independent.

Everyman

G5, especially the MWC, will never hand that over without a major fight...

No P5 team will ever agree to less $$ to invite BYU into their conference

We will never be good enough to win an NC again. So it doesn’t matter.

Just be glad we have in 1984. To be honest only 20 programs will ever sniff at

If G5 is ever given an automatic bid in an expanded playoff, we should join.

I agree with this if it starts trending in that direction. Holmoe had to be ever

The lines are drawn already. There should be no discussion.

The current lines are incredibly stupid.

Yes. Like voting districts. Seemingly random.

who thinks it's defensible?

Colorado

P5 coaches, players, administrators and fans. And much of sports media.
