this season. Because this poll was in response to that poll, it caused me to link your question to this season's BYU team. And I'm assuming that's the case for many here.

Ranked at season end

Ranked at year end would only happen if we make the tourney

Think that's the idea. If one happens, the other comes along too.

that's not necessarily true. USU was ranked at the end of year once and did not

Sixteen years ago

the human polls in basketball just don't matter, IMO

BlueK

Very true

Coop

Well....if BYU gets ranked at this point in the season, they'll likely be better

Exactly. Easy choice.

Huh? So it’s not possible never happened?

SouthernBlueBlood

1/29/20 11:08am

Has it happened? I'd be surprised, honestly.

Twice I can recall

That’s like saying would you rather be ranked or bowl-eligible in football.

I'm wondering if he means "ranked but not make the NCAA tourney" vs "making the

Not quite. They'll give any team with a pulse a bowl invite these days

Indy Coug

1/29/20 11:09am

That’s the point. So why would you not picked ranked if you are ranked you are

cougarfann888

1/29/20 11:11am

Most likely but there are exceptions and that was the question one or the other

SouthernBlueBlood

1/29/20 11:16am

what does ranked even matter if you don't make the tournament?

BlueK

1/29/20 11:08am

Not to me

SouthernBlueBlood

1/29/20 11:13am

You guys forget SMU and USU seasons- point being you’re

They both had terrible SOS, BYU is in the top 25 in SOS. For what it's worth.

1/29/20 11:13am

Completely agree but that wasn’t my question. Too many here foolishly thought

SouthernBlueBlood

1/29/20 11:15am

The OP is kinda dumb, though. BYU wouldn't be in that situation at all.

rggee

1/29/20 11:16am

Dumb? Why because you and everyone else applied extra criteria to the OP? That’s

SouthernBlueBlood

1/29/20 11:19am

The only criteria that everyone added was reality. Plus, if you write a poll in

Sure- REREAD THE QUESTION. Where did I remotely mislead or imply this team?

SouthernBlueBlood

For me, it was in linking to a poll talking about BYU's chances of being ranked

cougarfan84

1/29/20 11:24am

But considering the only way that BYU ends up ranked at this point is if they

1/29/20 11:19am

Yes on all accounts but again I didn’t ask or imply anything about this team. I

Given the context that you wanted people to consider, I would take my odds of

If there is one of those things, there is likely the other to go with it.
