And just to show how much the UW thing impacted media's view of BYU: We were ranked #8 in AP (media) before the UW drama. And after... #8.

So there was some twitter fodder. But no real damage.

He and other media members helped provide cause to bump BYU in playoff poll.

The media had nothing to do with it; it was going to happen regardless

It did some brand damage and may have affected the committee a little.

I disagree - the narrative that BYU was dodging the Huskies absolutely
