And I don’t get the “ceiling argument”. Not once did I think about a ceiling. It was the Utah game and 9 wins. That’s enough.

POLL: Would you take a guaranteed 9-3 season right now if you knew the following:

That has to be better than what the real preseason projections will be

Beating utah, chance at a ten win season in bowl game? Sign me up every year.

Almost nobody wants to take their chances for a better season than that, huh?

ZacSeljaas'Stache

I went to school during crowton's 3 losing seasons.I'll take 9 wins all the time

paulb

i was reading from the Athletic that many schools will have more than usual

Not worth the risk with this staff.

A big win over Utah (finally!) and all other rivalries would be well worth it

Until you said the blowout loss I was almost on board.

blueaussie

You're one of the few saying no

ZacSeljaas'Stache

1/21/21 2:53pm

Yes I am. But I disagree with a lot of the crap on CB. 🙂

blueaussie

1/21/21 3:04pm

I also voted no on this, the blowout loss and 9-3 ceiling weren't worth the

ZacSeljaas'Stache

9-3 with 4-3 against P5 plus ending the streak

Everybody has a bad game. I'll take the rest of the benefits listed.

I’m taking the 9-3 and assuming the blowout loss was when all 4 of our QBs

100%. That would be a tremendous season and would build nicely on this years

Kavorka

1/21/21 3:09pm

Yes. 100% yes.

LyleLanley

I'm holding out for 36 point win over Utah

dratax

1/21/21 4:32pm

That shoulda been this season..

icecougar

1/21/21 5:21pm

I almost said no. 9-3 is solid, but I'd rather roll the dice for a more...

HoustonBYUCoug

1/21/21 4:37pm

Play the percentages. How many 9-3 seasons have we had in the past 10 yrs?

icecougar

1/21/21 5:25pm

Oh yeah, I know it is highly unlikely to be better than 9-3. Like I said...

HoustonBYUCoug

1/21/21 6:32pm

Of course. We wont have that good of a season next year.

boctabulous

1/21/21 4:53pm

I'd take 6-6 if it included a win over Utah

Hill4Heisman

1/21/21 5:10pm

Not taking anything guaranteed. I'm a capitalist

7FootRussian

1/21/21 5:23pm

No.

BYUAnime

1/21/21 5:24pm

Sweet! You belong to an organization that can arrange this?

WaybackCougar

1/21/21 5:37pm

Breaking the streak and beating Utah is worth about 3-5 losses to me. So yes.

mikecito

1/21/21 5:52pm

For me it would not be as exciting to watch if the outcomes were guaranteed.

NVCougar

1/21/21 6:07pm

But it can’t be a loss to ASU... some of their fans are friggin yewts

LumberCoug

1/21/21 6:08pm

What a strangely specific poll

chazen

1/21/21 6:57pm

I don't think BYU gets 9 wins and I'd still rather let it play out

krindorr

1/21/21 7:20pm

I'll take anything that guarantees a win over Utah.

Oceanographer

1/21/21 7:24pm

1-11?

ImBlueDaBaDe

1/21/21 10:02pm

At this point, I might be willing to sacrifice a year for it (smile).
