Praying that UCF loses this week...

byujazzman87

UCF has no impact on us making a NY6, we are both trying for different spots

MikeDitka'sStache

9/16/19 1:05pm

BYU is already locked into a bowl

TNT

9/16/19 1:05pm

Yeah, unless we get a NY6 bowl

Rat

9/16/19 3:57pm

Youre on this board enough to know that’s not true.

bluebrotha

9/16/19 6:35pm

G5 school gets an automatic bid so we are not competing with the top G5 school

BYUCLA

9/16/19 1:05pm

That's not how it works. The highest ranked *champ* from the Group of 5

boscatar

9/16/19 1:07pm

The NY6 is contracted to take the highest ranked G5 team....sorry but we are not

BYUheaven

9/16/19 1:08pm

We don't have to convince anyone, its just the highest ranked team left.

MikeDitka'sStache

9/16/19 1:09pm

Correct. Our only option this year is Cotton Bowl against the highest G5 champ

boscatar

9/16/19 1:17pm

huh, I didn't know that. Pretty cool. Would be REALLY tough though for us to

BYUheaven

9/16/19 1:20pm

11-1 BYU with wins over Tenn, USC, Wash and BSU would be a highly ranked team

MikeDitka'sStache

9/16/19 1:22pm

Um, BYU would be top 10 in both final polls. Regardless, SDSU could end up being

BYU vs Boise State in the Cotton bowl.

Lance71

9/16/19 1:23pm

Impossible. If BYU beats Boise, Boise has no shot at being in the top 12

bluebrotha

9/16/19 6:44pm

If I understand it correctly, they are not contracted to take the highest 12

BYUheaven

9/16/19 1:18pm

If the NY6 were filled today, based on this week's AP Poll:

boscatar

9/16/19 1:29pm

They don’t take the top 12 but it is 100% based on rankings and conference champ

BYUCLA

9/16/19 6:25pm

We CANT TAKE G5 spot regardless- I want it to happen but it cant

SouthernBlueBlood

9/16/19 1:11pm

There is only 1 at large spot for NY6 this year. Most years there are 2, if we

bigbossbyu

9/16/19 1:15pm

In the other years, there are usually 3 or 4 at large bids.

Let's just pray we win this week.

We get the Hawaii bowl against the AAC this year.

boscatar

9/16/19 1:21pm

Literally undefeated BYU wouldn't go to a NY6.

Y4LYFE

9/16/19 1:22pm

Undefeated BYU team would easily be top ten ranked, and would be all but guaranteed an NY6 slot (at-large slots are

CalGTR

9/16/19 1:30pm

This is correct. Don't confuse the NY6 with the CFP.

boscatar

9/16/19 1:46pm

Yep. I believe we'd usually get a NY6 slot with one loss.

CalGTR

9/16/19 6:09pm

Really bad post.

Duke Silver

That's just deranged pessimism talking lol

Man...this place loses its mind over a few wins over mediocre teams. We’re still

Natedog916

9/16/19 1:23pm

Very bi-polar board

TNT

9/16/19 1:28pm

I'd be happy with 8-4. But I could also easily see us at 9-3.

Gorgias

9/16/19 4:27pm

I want to believe so bad but I’ve been burned too many times.

Natedog916

9/16/19 5:07pm

Yeah, maybe saying 9-3 could be "easily" done was overstating

Gorgias

9/16/19 6:28pm

Dodgers, Sac Kings, Raiders. Hopes always crushed.

Natedog916

9/16/19 7:06pm

You are fine. You said you could easily see it, not easily done.

Did you mean “we was VERY close?”

Soy Celeste

9/17/19 1:09pm

7 wins is not on the table at all. 8 still is though if we blow it against USU.

andrewg3

9/16/19 8:30pm

What do your mean 7 wins is not on the table? You can’t see us losing to

Natedog916

9/16/19 9:29pm

There is no way in hades we go 0-3 against WA, USU, and Boise.

andrewg3

9/17/19 10:36am

i wouldn't put it past us. 1 injury away. Even healthy could happen.

buckeyecougarguy

9/17/19 10:57am

Also, look yourself in the mirror and try to say with a straight face that BYU

andrewg3

9/17/19 10:38am

didn't we get in a shootout with them last time?

buckeyecougarguy

9/17/19 10:58am

Yes, and it was a loss for Toledo, even with their future NFL draft pick QB.

9/17/19 11:42am

All UT needs is half of the offense that team had if they had a semblance of

BYU has a chance of losing to every team on its schedule except Idaho State.

Natedog916

9/17/19 12:08pm

Idaho State would beat UMass this year. And Liberty isn't much better.

andrewg3

9/17/19 3:55pm

Doesn’t mean they can’t beat us. No game ever is a sure thing.

Natedog916

9/17/19 4:08pm

ok. I'm sorry you haven't seen enough from our D-line and O-line that you think

andrewg3

9/17/19 5:15pm

To say that it is impossible that we lose to any team is foolish.

Natedog916

9/17/19 5:26pm

If our entire O-line gets injured then it’s possible.

andrewg3

No less realistic than Utah talking about going to playoffs.

I’m not sure this is worth expending more than two minutes worrying about.
