Next year's "toughest schedule ever" isn't looking so tough

BYUMizzou

Why would a college team "intentionally tank"?

Thrill

11/18/19 11:34am

By delaying to put talent on the field in order to redshirt them for later? Seems like a huge gamble in

Here's an article that explains it

I hope BYU looks at doing some version of this

Kinda what we have now

I don't like the idea of winning 3-4 games one year, then 10, then 3-4 again.

Lance71

11/18/19 1:01pm

Yeah, I like the 10-2 part the most

Borg

UH's 4-star QB announced that he will redshirt, after Houston lost a close one

Doogal McCougar

11/18/19 11:38am

Thought it was reported he's planning on leaving. He's a dynamic player.

Yep most likely transferring

I thought he's said he's staying.

It's basically to save the elite players from a rebuilding year

Every year is the “toughest schedule ever” in the offseason.

I don't think people get scared. I think it's reasonable to expect P5 teams to

look at BYU ‘s historical record against p5. Probably below 50%.

idcougarfan

11/18/19 4:10pm

A lot of these will be beatable P5s though

puntersarepeople

11/18/19 4:35pm

Mizzou will be tough but in Provo and Stanford will probably be bad

UH is likely going to lose some of those redshirt players. Their QB is going

The qb's (King) father has already said he plans on transferring

We won't know how tough the schedule really is until this time next year

cougaman

11/18/19 11:37am

Utah and Houston will be the 'most different' next season I think.

Klompus

11/18/19 11:37am

It's very possible Utah is the best team we play next year (again)

Utah will be a very tough game until proven otherwise.

The thing that makes it really tough...

The Y's Insider

11/18/19 11:44am

Actually, '20 BYU could earn bowl eligibility without a single P5 win.

Doogal McCougar

11/18/19 11:51am

I see a lot of teams poised to make a move up next year

Indy Coug

11/18/19 11:45am

Including BYU. I'm optimistic.

Utah loses the Hallandale 3. The rest of the Offensive playmakers return

Spot on!

Football Fan Dad

11/18/19 12:14pm

They lose 2 ol as well

BYU '80

Only one starting OL (Paulo)

Isn't the big thing being that so many of the tougher games are on the road?

Cougar8Duck

11/18/19 12:28pm

Has Hall redshirted? If not, he has only played in 4 games this year, right?

oldrugger

11/18/19 12:39pm

redshirted last year

Schultz is back

11/18/19 12:55pm

He RS last year iirc

cougaman

Minnesota is a really young team.

whirl

11/18/19 12:49pm

They have some juniors I bet though

puntersarepeople

11/18/19 12:50pm

According to this they only have 3 returning starters on defense next year

BYUMizzou

11/18/19 12:52pm

Utah also loses most of their defense

BYU '80

11/18/19 1:21pm

Until BYU beats Utah, it's an all-but-guaranteed loss.

My real concern is Northern Alabama.

We only lose 3 offensive starters.

Your QB transfer from UT has a great arm. Should be interesting.
