Depends a lot on the year and schedule.
Last year for example is one where BYU was in a great spot for a 9+ win season. They had 4 P5s on the schedule 3 upper tier-ish G5s on the schedule (Boise, SDSU, Hawaii), and 6 other games they should win.
The problem was not really the 4 P5 games which they split 2-2, it was that they also lost to several other teams they should not have lost to last year. Flip losses to USF, Toledo, and a bowl win in Hawaii and you have a ranked finish with a 10-3 season.
I would be happy with splitting our P5 games and then winning out or a loss here and there to good G5 teams, and if that means 7-8 wins a year then it is what it is. Frustration for me comes from losing to those teams where we should win and blow it ourselves.

So the question to you, the fan, is — Are you OK with 6-6 to 8-4 seasons because you're playing 5-7 P5 teams?

Yes, Indy. I am ok with 8-4 with those tough schedules. 9-4 if win a bowl. That is a solid P5 season.
