Well, if the teams we beat DID suck, the Sagarin ratings would account for that.

SandYFan Intervention Needed

But if we beat a truly worthy schedule, going undefeated, and we really deserved a spot, I can't see them keeping us out.

That's just a very tall task.

This video from Twitter put into perspective how ridiculous Zach Wilson has been

That’s was a fun conversation.

Though I don't think we are one of the best 4 teams in the country, this guy is

I don't know. I think it's more a "play a better schedule" thing.

SandYFan

Of all the years the "play a better schedule" argument should be tossed out. BYU

Exactly. This is the perfect year for a team like BYU. They have to beat a top

No one wanted this to happen this year.

So all the P5's need to do to keep non-P5's out is just schedule games with each

NOCAL_YFAN

Absolutely right.

SandYFan

10/20/20 5:12pm

BYU can do it. They just have to put consecutive great seasons together.

Exhibit A: UCF 2017

This year is nothing like 2017.

Harbinger

10/21/20 5:10am

Yes, but our best opponent is nothing like the ‘17 Auburn that beat Bama

BYU-Laie

10/21/20 5:56am

Exactly. If there's no clearly better p5 team because they take losses or play

Harbinger

10/21/20 6:01am

They played Auburn in the bowl game, so they wouldn't count. UCF best non-con W

I stand corrected

We might not be one of the four best teams in the country, but we've played

? They've already said that. No one believes otherwise.

Mitty

10/21/20 1:44pm

He's absolutely right. If the big 10 doesn't have a clearly better team than BYU

Harbinger

10/20/20 5:08pm

I like those guys. I'd listen to more from them. Good sports talk is tough to find these days.

They are so much better than Cofield and company in Vegas

If we are being honest, even with our original schedule, the narrative would be

It's just a shame that the reward would be to face either Clemson or Alabama...

NOCAL_YFAN

10/20/20 5:19pm

Totally disagree. If we were performing against that schedule, we'd be fine.

CaliWG

10/20/20 5:23pm

How can you say that with a straight face?

FMOCIE

When you have an elite QB, it masks a lot of other issues

CaliWG

2 quarters

What's crazy is how much the game has changed that all of the best are just in

Cougar8Duck

10/20/20 5:34pm

I think the lack of crowds helps, too. Same thing happened with the NBA playoffs

SandYFan

10/20/20 5:37pm

Interesting counterpoint is what about the players that thrive on the emotion

jaredm

10/20/20 5:49pm

Zach just threw for 400 and 4 Tds in front of a crowd.

Lip Gallagher

10/20/20 5:52pm

In BYU's case, we've done better on the road...Zach did just fine at Rocky Top

NOCAL_YFAN

10/20/20 6:20pm

Notre Dame has 6 home and 6 road games. Big change for them, no 8 home game...

Only 5 games, but he'll be an all-time great if he keeps it up
