BCriddle was discussing the ceiling or floor for BYU like others do and I just do not think it makes sense. Here’s why

The floor is 5 imo for this year.

You think it's impossible that you lose to 2/3 of NIU, USU, and UMASS?

displacedute

Not impossible but if BYU is a decent team they beat NIU and USU at home

HighHorse

Sure, but we're talking floor here. Worst plausible scenario is 4. Maybe 3.

You think it's impossible that your boys go 0-12?

I think it’s impossible. We’re on their schedule 😭

Right, but what's the plausible floor? 5 is more likely than 4, but after 2017

displacedute

Yep.

"your boys" — who do you root for. Oh, and yes, BYU will never go 0-12.

Obviously not for the team of the poster I responded to.

Ah, yes.

My BYU floor is 6, the ceiling is 14

Floor: 5, Ceiling: 10, Preseason expectation: 7-5 (reg season)

Is that what you call a "false ceiling"?

BlueBeliever

How can you justify a ceiling of 10 wins?

I read your post

He's not predicting they'll beat Utah, Cal and Arizona.

displacedute

8/21/18 10:13am

Agreed- except my ceiling is just that the best possible outcome. I agree that winning 8 would be amazing and I think I

SouthernBlueBlood

8/21/18 10:18am

Right. I think your plausible ceiling is 8 wins, but I understand why you put 10

displacedute

8/21/18 10:28am

I don’t pick BYU to beat Utah. I don’t pick BYU to beat anyone except the bottom 4. I think Utah will beat BYU. I just

That's fair

Tj_utefan

8/21/18 10:18am

Also, keep in mind, they lose some starts off this team, and 19 and 20 are tough

displacedute

8/21/18 11:01am

The floor is lower than 6, as we saw last year. But anything less than 6 is

cougaman

8/21/18 9:59am

Agreed

SouthernBlueBlood

8/21/18 10:14am

Floor is 3 wins, but I expect no less than five. 8 as a ceiling but not possible

BrotherBrighamsBeard

8/21/18 10:08am

Floor 4, ceiling 9. I would have expected 8 wins from a bronco coached team.

here's to hoping

8/21/18 12:34pm

I think it's wierd that so much time is spent defining win/loss expectations
