You've linked my post more than enough times, that you should have noted the date - specifically October 7. That's where I said I don't think that BYU was currently a top 10 team, and chuckle when people claim that based on their offensive efficiency ratings from the first 3 games. The more discerning among you may realize that at the time I posted that, BYU had only played Navy, Troy and LaTech and was ranked #15, not the top 10 (as you claim).
I'd wager that most posters on here would agree with me that BYU didn't have a top 10 resume at that point. Things only got real when we beat Houston and then Boise St.
