Says that even with the P5s on our schedule, since they aren’t that good we’d at best be playing for a NY6 game.

“In some ways, BYU should actually be easier for the committee to compare side by side with Power 5 contenders than with Group of 5 teams like Cincinnati, because the Cougars’ schedule more closely resembles a Power 5 team’s than a Group of 5 team’s. But like with any team, it’s going to depend on whether all those Power 5 opponents end up being any good.”

“ Short of an absolute chaos scenario where we have multiple two-loss Power 5 champs, BYU realistically is playing for a New Year’s Six bowl. But the good news there is, the Cougars don’t necessarily have to go undefeated to achieve that.”
