Bronco benefited by playing a lot of MWC schools---only TCU and UTAH had as many resources at BYU. 

Even once we went Indy, we play Boise and USU every year, who have fewer resources than BYU.

Sure, he can load up on OOC wins (which he did last year)....but beyond that, he has to recruit against the ACC and play against ACC.  He hasn't had any real success with that yet, has he.

I guess he did beat 3 ACC schools last year.
