IT's a "no lose" situation for us as well. If we lose, we still have the SBC title game and our Sun Belt Bowl slate. Cincy is in our way for the G5 NY6 guaranteed slot. At this point, Cincy would have to win the first game against Tulsa, then turn around and lose the championship game against Tulsa with us at CCU hoping to be ranked higher than Tulsa. We also have to hope Louisiana wins tonight against App State and moves up in the polls a bit so a win against them in the SBC title game means a lot. Even if all these dominoes fell into place, I can see Tulsa outranking us by virtue of beating Cincinnati in the championship game.

Now if we win against y'all....well we still pretty much need the above scenario to happen. It's just that the win over BYU would close the gap between us and Cincinnati and hopefully make a Tulsa win against them not close the gap. Relying on the CFP committee to make these decisions is pointless.

Which is why I see this game as our big Bowl Game. And there's really nothing for us to lose since we were picked to finish dead last in the Sun Belt. Everything about this season is more than anyone here outside the football team could have imagined.
