were #5 in the nation and got locked out of the BCS system entirely.

The committee placed a 3 loss lame Penn St team in ahead of BYU.

Here’s why I absolutely love what happened tonight

It only works if they get more games

Cougar TD

11/24/20 9:53pm

Yep, and I doubt we get another game before SDSU. By the. It won’t matter

ray ray

11/24/20 9:54pm

Yep. But that’s always been the case regardless of where we’re ranked tonight

JrodinDC

11/24/20 9:59pm

I appreciate the positive outlook, but the most likely outcome will be no

swingcat

11/24/20 9:55pm

But if we’re ranked 8th, that doesn’t help our odds of more games either

JrodinDC

11/24/20 9:59pm

In theory teams ahead of BYU could “help out” by losing if BYU is ranked 8-9. This was a disaster

8th ranking gets us an at large bid to a new years six.

Great thoughts.

Where’s the game coming from though? I don’t see it

Memmo

I think we lose that attention and the fire

It’s not short if you drop a hundred on SDSU

I really really hope we can play Cincinnati. I just don’t see any P5’s playing

Maybe a 1 loss P5 that does not go to the conference championship.

Devils advocate to everything you’re stating here

The Lone Star Cougar

11/24/20 10:10pm

Don’t disagree with anything, but all that’s still the case if we’re ranked 8th

JrodinDC

Remember when we got disrespected in 2001 and then got smoked by U of Hawaii?

Jericho

11/24/20 10:13pm

Yes but two differences here

JrodinDC

11/24/20 10:17pm

A 3rd diff. in ‘01 we lost the Doak Walker winner to injury. ‘20 key players are

I thought Holiday Bowl was cancelled

When BYU gets overhyped, they lay eggs. Chip on shoulder is the silver lining

TH missed the boat not getting a game this Saturday

Hinta

11/24/20 10:23pm

I mean, while you’re right, I think it’s unfair to assume he wasn’t trying hard

The Lone Star Cougar

11/24/20 10:25pm

We had a game. That’s what our players were getting ready for on Monday.

All-American

11/24/20 10:41pm

A game that would have ended up being cancelled. Washington is playing Utah.

che flaco

11/24/20 10:48pm

Yeah, but that was shot down yesterday. Can we actually get a game for 12/5 now?

The Lone Star Cougar

11/24/20 10:56pm

Only problem with your logic is, the CFP committee has signaled to everyone not to play BYU.

cougarmikey

11/25/20 12:05am

I believe this is correct. The goal was not allow BYUbto take $4m from the Big12

LEDSFW

11/25/20 12:22am

Maybe, but being ranked 2-3 spots higher doesn’t change that

JrodinDC

11/25/20 12:28am

I would add to that, this thin erased the downward spiral the PAC created

We are all over ESPN, We are hunting for top level games, The team will be ready

11/25/20 5:16am

I seriously doubt any top level team wants to play BYU now. They have everything

Soy Celeste

11/25/20 5:53am

I agree. While not ideal, I think any Top 25 game-even Coastal or Marshall-would

Forzaitalia

11/25/20 9:29am

We are not the only good team looking to prove ourselves. We will get a good gam

Flunked at Ricks

11/25/20 9:38am

Who? Remember they need to be available 12/5 or possibly 12/19.
