So you're telling me that if BYU, as an Independent, was undefeated and ranked

higher than any other G5 school, that they wouldn't get an NY6 bowl invite? You know this for a fact?

You're also saying that you'd be willing to throw away every other advantage we have being and Independent for a slim chance of someday being in a NY6 bowl? smh

Serious question: do you really WANT BYU to go to a bowl game at this point?

Of course. It's a good perk for the players.

Only if we finish with a 7-5 record or better

I want a bowl game. I'll always choose more football over less football.

Id love a bowl game, but Id also love new coaches

Yes. Because it means we win a bunch of games

The sad part is after the loss to Utah, it wouldn't matter if BYU was 11-1 or

Not True, ESPN would have flexed BYU into a higher tier bowl game

What bowls don't have tie ins that they could just "flex" BYU into?

ESPN Events owns and operates 16 bowl games.

Doogal McCougar

ESPN could have moved us into an ESPN-Owned bowl, they own a lot

You say that like the MWC or AAC conferences have any better options.

ManicBlue

10/14/19 3:53pm

They do. If you are the top ranked G5 you go to a NY6 bowl.

Chester Copperpot

10/14/19 3:54pm

So IOW no better than what BYU already has then.

BYU has no such agreement with the NY6 bowls

Aye. The NY6 bowl is a red herring. A red herring, I tell ye.

The contract is that they have to take the highest ranked G5 team and BYU is not

*Highest ranked G5 conference champ.

10/15/19 12:35pm

That's the point. The MWC is the easiest route to the NY6...sure...

Doogal McCougar

Yes, this team needs the extra weeks of practice

Yes

I always want more wins and to watch more BYU football

This.

Yes! Why wouldn’t you want a bowl game. That said, I don’t think they’ll get

It's a month of extra practices and coach interaction. It's always better

reagan21

10/14/19 3:49pm

Yes. Need practice to develop players and momentum for next year.

10/14/19 3:50pm

13 BYU Football games > 12 BYU Football games

10/14/19 3:52pm

Unless its 2017. I think we all would have liked one less game that year

MikeDitka'sStache

10/14/19 3:52pm

Yes. And if we do, keep the staff-- they will have earned another year.

10/14/19 3:52pm

Because they beat SDSU? NO

MikeDitka'sStache

10/14/19 3:54pm

You absolutely do want more wins. It is better to have a team improve and build

Cougar TD

Yes. Looking forward to watching BYU as a Christmas Eve activity

Okay....this is a good point. Unless our OC and DC play the Grinch.

Michael McQuain

10/14/19 3:59pm

Yes,because it would give Kalani another opportunity to make good on his promise
