This is why I’m now much more in favor of getting that Army game rescheduled

What does army gain at this point rescheduling? I don’t think it happens.

Knocking off a Top Ten team, but I agree with you

I think the question is not what’s to gain for Army, but what’s changed for them
The Lone Star Cougar
10/27/20 7:34am
Clearly he doesn’t. The CV excuse was a smoke screen

at the start of the year, Army was just looking for any games. They were

Potentially a few million in tv revenue

I think numbers are all down this year. it'd be less than a few million. also

Not sure how contracts are worded but my understanding was most of the contracts

We are hoping that that game would get picked up on a CBS slot, but the first

Army has already been invited to the Armed Forces Bowl...they also have nothing

Question:

12-0 sounds better than 10-0, especially when you're vying for a NY6 spot against 6-1 P5
2FarGone
10/27/20 7:39am
True, but that doesn't address looking for SoS games. Just number of games.
Gentleman Stan
10/27/20 7:46am
I don't think they're in if they're undefeated at all, there is no clear path
2FarGone
10/27/20 7:48am
So number of games, not quality?
Gentleman Stan
10/27/20 7:54am
You need both to get credibility as a non P5

The CFP has not provided any rankings yet, so we have no idea where they will
cwilke1
10/27/20 7:47am
Yep, there is absolutely no guarantee that a 10-0 BYU gets a NY6 invite.

When has BYU been stiffed by the CFP committee?
hydrocoug
10/27/20 7:57am
BYU got stiffed by the BCS folks when they were told no invitation even before
cwilke1
10/27/20 8:19am
So not CFP committee?
hydrocoug
10/27/20 8:26am
are you surprised with the position that the college football brokers actively
cwilke1
10/27/20 9:58am
BYU has not been stiffed any more than the rest of the have nots.
hydrocoug
10/27/20 11:22am
By any measurement, our wins have been significantly more impressive this year
Colorado
10/27/20 10:44am
BYU's never even be ranked by the CFP committee
BYU Fan
10/27/20 8:29am
Should they have been prior to this year?
hydrocoug
10/27/20 9:19am
Probably not (maybe in 2015) - just pointing out BYU has been irrelevant
BYU Fan
10/27/20 9:50am
I agree.
hydrocoug
10/27/20 11:08am
Agree. My question is really more academic at this point. But if the CFP

Too many unknowns to assume that a 10-0 BYU with the biggest wins

Please stop pretending a JC that paints its field blue is USC or Notre Dame.
LEDSFW
10/27/20 7:58am
Yeah, over the last 15 years BSU is better than both those teams.
CasualFan
10/27/20 8:03am
I think Notre Dame is better in last 15 - Notre Dame played in a national

10/27/20 8:26am
BSU has lost an average of 1.3 loses per season
CasualFan
10/27/20 8:35am
Also this little very relevant fact:
CasualFan
10/27/20 8:40am
And its a huge difference for BSU to play 1 or 2 top 25 games a season than to
cwilke1
10/27/20 9:17am
All true. But ND also gets a huge "benefit of the doubt" vote
CasualFan
10/27/20 9:21am
ND got into those games because they are ND.
miggida
10/27/20 12:13pm
Should we pretend that overall that JC hasn't been a more consistent program...

My thought is this is a 1983 year. They will never take us in the CFP and most
ImuaKahuku
10/27/20 8:07am
The problem I see with this, is that we will be losing plenty of talent.
rtNelson
10/27/20 8:10am
Then pray most including ZW come back. Not saying I hope this is how it goes
ImuaKahuku
10/27/20 9:11am
I definitely agree. Everyone can come back for sure if they want to. However..

10/27/20 9:18am
I we go undefeated two seasons in a row we are going to be a #1 or 2 seed
Cougforgood
10/27/20 8:46am
Not true at all.

More recent example is UCF: 2017 they went undefeated and beat #7 Auburn in the

Thank you. At some point this canard needs to go away
CasualFan
10/27/20 9:17am
Hence my further explanation of what else must happen.
ImuaKahuku
10/27/20 9:23am
The only relevant part is "all the other stuff"
CasualFan
10/27/20 9:28am
Exactly. Being undefeated is not enough, But it is requisite number 1.
ImuaKahuku
10/27/20 9:30am
Unless or until we get into a P5 then it might be enough.
ImuaKahuku
10/27/20 9:31am
Has there been an undefeated P5 not make the playoff?
Cougforgood
10/27/20 10:51am
Imagine all five P5 conf champs undefeated, someone gets left out.
ImuaKahuku
10/27/20 2:47pm
Hasn't happened and not going to happen
Cougforgood
10/27/20 3:28pm
If at all it would almost always be a #4 seed unless it's a really weird year.
ImuaKahuku
10/27/20 9:13am
if we were undefeated with our original schedule and equally impressive, I could

*1979. An undefeated BYU was just inside the Top 10 going into the bowl game.
Gentleman Stan
10/27/20 10:47am
Starting ranking is important to making it to #1 in 84. 83 started unranked and

BYU wasn’t ranked in the 1984 preseason
BYU Fan
10/27/20 3:06pm
First game win against a top 5 team does that
Cougforgood
10/27/20 3:29pm
We were "unranked" in preseason, became 13 after Pitt victory
Cougforgood
10/27/20 3:29pm
You are right we were unranked but I'm sure history helped propel to #13.
