It is...but mostly because it's the next game. We go 3-1 and lose to Toledo?

Utah was the biggest game of the season. After that, probably BSU.

BSU over Power 5 schools?

A likely top-15 and undefeated BSU, who is one of the three teams underlined by

Prior to the season starting I would have all of our Power 5 matchups ahead of BSU.

I'd have rated BSU as a better football team than both USC and Tenn prior

Prior to the season, BSU was a likely tougher game than two of those four teams.

P5 is not a useful descriptor of the quality of a game or school.

Rivalry game. At home. Top-15. Season opener. Of course it was the biggest game.

BSU is way down the list. Behind the P5s and USU. 6th most important.

Thats exactly where I ranked them.

Nah. Most moved on after the Tenn game. USC has things righted again.
