To be honest, I do think BYU goes 11-1 or 10-2 this year with the original
schedule. None of those teams are having great years. I do think the at Arizona St is a loss. The bad part is at 11-1 we still play in the buttcrack bowl.

Why we are 14th

It all about keeping the money

If you can’t make a meaningful bowl winning all games by 5 TDs—you basically
Mr. Scoobs

Strike “meaningful bowl game” and insert “playoffs”

Agree 100%. But it’s even more laughable to get locked out of NY6. Unbelievable.
Mr. Scoobs

The fact that ND is playing well exacerbates this.

Notre Dame is a member of the ACC this season

Yes, but they are also indy in many ways

They share the money with the ACC, and they are included in all the big talks. (conference commissioners + ND AD)

We need to be top 10 so we will make top 12

we were 8, and got 14. so we need to be ranked top 5 in order to make top 12.
here's to hoping

Byu doesn’t BYU have a representative on the committee?

Nor will they till they are in a conference.

BYU is NOT G5. Saying so is not correct. Please stop as that hurts BYU.

Well we aren't P5.

The ACC, B1G, and SEC consider us a P5 opponent
DMVCougar
11/27/20 2:15pm
Same with Fresno State, but they aren't P5 either.
coldcoug
11/27/20 4:16pm
Same as Army and many others. It's not an exclusive club.

Well we're not G5, Fresno is.
DMVCougar

We are independent, not P5.
coldcoug
11/27/20 4:55pm
And frankly, as independents go, we're a lot closer to Army and UMass than to ND
krindorr
11/27/20 5:05pm
And as far as P5’s go we are closer to ASU, Washington, Iowa...than Rutgers

Wrong! Not in any way. We have no path to anything. Those team all have a path.

We can compete with the likes of the schools I mentioned. Why play a schedule
truecougster
11/27/20 9:55pm
Because an AAC schedule wouldn't be like this year. If BYU added two good P5

And we aren't G5.
DMVCougar
11/27/20 5:14pm
2 types of Indys. Those that could be P5 and those that couldn't. Which are we?
krindorr
11/27/20 5:30pm
What....?
DMVCougar
11/27/20 5:51pm
We're not P5 quality
krindorr
11/27/20 6:34pm
How many G5 schools can put a list of P5’s they’ve beaten that would equal ours?
truecougster
11/27/20 9:58pm
In the independence era BYU is 16-25 vs P5
krindorr
11/27/20 6:39pm
P5 conferences not canceling this year get us to about 21 or 22-25
DMVCougar
11/27/20 6:50pm
A prophet now. You know this for sure?

I haven't been confirmed yet, hence the 21-22 range.

I'm confident it will come.

WOW! There is that arrogant attitude. What makes INDY more prestigious? Nothing!

11/27/20 1:31pm
Somehow leaving G5 to throw our sucker in the dirt made us better than G5?

Wait, you think G5 is better than Indy? In what way? Please share.

Top 25 ranking was always more "relevant" than a G5 conference horserace
DMVCougar
11/27/20 3:59pm
But 90% of the time, BYU isn't in Top 25 anyway, so conference play has meaning
krindorr
11/27/20 4:20pm
Correlation vs. causation
DMVCougar
11/27/20 4:22pm
Not saying we're bad because we're Indy, just that we're not normally top 25
krindorr
11/27/20 4:58pm
We have ZERO top 25 finishes as INDY.
delete_king
11/27/20 4:21pm
Which means we never would win a G5 conference during that time either
DMVCougar
11/27/20 4:23pm
Yes, I think the AAC is better than INDY x100.

What, is "G5 equivalent" the preferred term now?

We are worse than g5. Let it sink in.
Bluedarts

I didn’t - I just said they are not giving two spots away.

Every P5 champ is guaranteed a bowl regardless of ranking.
ImuaKahuku
11/27/20 12:15pm
And the nonsensical statement that this is not really about picking a true champ

G5 reps on committee have even MORE reason
