This is total crap!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Nothing compares to a USC game". Oh like UCF earned by winning the AAC CC and going to a NY6 bowl and

actually earning respect by beating Auburn 13-0 baby. You don't earn respect by just playing P5 games, you earn it by beating P5 teams in big games. What a flippin joke. "We played USC, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW! CB'er and their selective realities are killing me.

Don't forget in nine years of stupid exhibition games against P5 teams BYU has only won three games against winning P5 teams. Go look it up. Texas, UW, and GaTech... It's not great to beat a 5-8 MST team, just because they're P5.

This isn't about your vacation schedule and what great stadium you get to go to. It about rankings, NY6, respect, and not playing stupid exhibition games for casual BYU fans.

CB'er say, G5 is a downgrade, but UCF, Houston, Cincy, etc... are better. That's just crazy logic.

Playing for a meaningless conf title and the chance to play a P5 team at the end of the year is better than playing 4+

It is meaningless in the sense it doesn’t guarantee anything or net BYU any gain

Ok... it's meaningless... great... so what does BYU net right now?

Better schedule? Boise State had a better SOS than us last year... Navy had a better SOS than us...

Boise did, barely. Neither Navy or any other AAC team had better SOS. Link below

How many Ny6 games did we win in the MWC? I love how the assumption is we would start going to and winning them

No, but you'd have a much higher chance than the current proven track.

You do realize that having a conference championship allows you to play one more

Cool. Not being in the MWC means i dont have to go to games in ABQ or Laramie. It also means i can have 3 p5 teams

Those should be fun games if you're a BYU fan.... (sarcasm intented)
