P5s plus Boise St with the last potentially being a big statement road game at USC absolutely puts BYU in the conversation as a playoff team.
I guess if every team we play ends up un-ranked and/or there’s 4 undefeated P5s (or 1 loss SEC runner ups) then there won’t be room, but to write off the possibility right now is wrong and a sad statement.
Realistically, I don’t think we make it through unscathed, but I’m not willing to say it’s impossible to make the playoff now at 3-0 with the upcoming schedule and this early in the year.
