Serious question from a Ute fan. Is there a plausible scenario that gets BYU

Yes. Win the Pac 12 championship game. BYU's the south representative, right?

fbguru

11/28/21 1:27pm

Nope

Coug98

11/28/21 9:07am

I’d say it’s possible but unlikely considering the outcomes of a few key games

rivercitycoug

11/28/21 9:08am

Divine intervention maybe. Missionaries tract into Gary barta and he accepts?

blueaussie

11/28/21 9:08am

I don't believe there is.

Y-Zag

11/28/21 9:08am

Probably not, needed Penn State to win

JOPE

11/28/21 9:08am

Might have been if MSU had lost. But I think MSU gets that last slot.

WJCougar

MSU lost 56-7

If for some reason a bowl wants a 10-2 BYU over MSU and OU,

shamc

11/28/21 9:09am

Probably not but I don't think it's completely impossible

BYU Fan

11/28/21 9:09am

Hard to imagine. Lloyd Christmas chance but there may be something better than Independenc since some conf’s

Soupie

11/28/21 9:09am

I saw a projection today with BYU vs LSU in the Independence Bowl. That

ALUF 1990

11/28/21 9:12am

Revenge for 2017! We’ll get past the 50 this time!

WP17

11/28/21 9:28am

LSU home game but like the matchup

Acorn

11/28/21 9:34am

Yes, but it’s as likely as finding a classy yewt fan in the west concourse.

Penske Material

11/28/21 9:09am

So...not a chance

WJCougar

11/28/21 9:13am

Or a cougar tail for sale at LES after halftime.

ALUF 1990

11/28/21 9:14am

That’s not a bad thing though even though I haven’t had one in years.

Soupie

11/28/21 9:23am

Massive cougar tail sales are part of the reason why the bench seats aren't

ALUF 1990

11/28/21 9:28am

lol

wok your dog

11/28/21 6:03pm

And you know about this how?

WJCougar

11/28/21 9:26am

I was thinking about how I had no idea. He’s been to LES more than me!

Breaded Hamster

11/28/21 11:31am

Don't see one.

zonacougar

11/28/21 9:12am

No. We lost to Boise.

Backcountry

11/28/21 9:13am

I think several spots are at large.

Acorn

11/28/21 9:15am

hasn't been bowls choice for NY6 bowls in years. After all the tie ins. The last

here's to hoping

11/28/21 12:49pm

Also not sure we do well against a healthy NY6 qualifier; but there are bunch of

BYU'01

11/28/21 5:56pm

There has to be an overwhelming argument to redirect $10’s of millions away

Taysom 4 Heisman

11/28/21 9:17am

It's $4 million, the CFP rewrote the contract most of the money is paid out to

Kajdin

11/28/21 9:29am

There is also an expense reimbursement that has typically been around $2M

11/28/21 3:36pm

I think BYU will end up 1 spot outside

YIsForBrigham

11/28/21 9:17am

Not really. BYU needed a B10 team to lose. They have 3 spots now.

Benfica1

11/28/21 9:35am

Serious question for Ute fans.

Corn

11/28/21 9:45am

Putting on my Ute hat to answer this one; answer is yes and no

krindorr

11/28/21 11:43am

I agree

ALUF 1990

11/28/21 1:31pm

They did lose to an eh team in osu late in the season.

MrClark

11/28/21 1:41pm

Good question. One could ask you/BYU fans the same thing. Hard to argue

kos

11/28/21 12:00pm

I totally agree. I think if BYU had more of the schedules with upper G5 schools

Bell of the Ball

11/28/21 1:20pm

Would you rather play in Rose Bowl or beat BYU?

kiyoshige

11/28/21 2:42pm

100% rather play in Rose Bowl

krindorr

11/28/21 3:35pm

Yes it's possible, but highly improbable

Machiavelli

11/28/21 10:56am

Depends on the bowls. But if Baylor loses outside shot. Extremely remote though. Or Utah beat Oregon. Long shots.

Turnpike Lane

11/28/21 1:08pm

Utah Oregon doesn’t effect BYU chances really. BYU isn’t going to the to Rose

Lieutenant America

11/28/21 1:41pm

If Oregon loses badly they could drop below BYU In the final poll and affect at large options. Remote but not impossible

Turnpike Lane

11/28/21 2:29pm

🤔 That’s not a serious question.

grosven

11/28/21 1:10pm

hms_ben

11/28/21 1:42pm

Both those scenarios make it less likely. Baylor has to loose big enough to

Dat_rmishner

11/28/21 2:29pm

What if Cincy beats UH and takes the playoff spot

coldcoug

11/28/21 2:29pm

Yes

Turnpike Lane

11/28/21 2:30pm

That is already happening, and BYU is still out. The only chance now is

andrewg3

11/28/21 5:17pm

They would need Oklahoma to drop below them on Tuesday. Without that there is no

Tuskaloosa Cougar

11/28/21 3:00pm

The Committee has already shown they don't respect what OK. has done this year

slatecoug

11/28/21 3:21pm

If there wasn't they would have already announced the Independence Bowl.

slatecoug

11/28/21 3:19pm

They did.

AltTabbins

11/28/21 3:45pm

I hope so. I’d love to see BYU go NY Bowl. And Cincy to the playoffs

TFL

11/28/21 3:47pm

No- BYU is the first out… will be 12th and needed to be 11th

1984coug

11/28/21 4:22pm

Yes, but it’s a small chance. Baylor losing would be it.

andrewg3

11/28/21 5:15pm

But if bama loses and Oklahoma st goes to the playoff then Baylor or Oklahoma

Tuskaloosa Cougar

11/28/21 5:20pm

Would OK State get in over Notre Dame?

andrewg3

11/28/21 8:05pm

We will see where they are ranked on Tuesday. They probably have a better resume
