it really wasn't an option for the last decade. I'm not convinced that beating Coastal Carolina would have put us in.

Utah has built a really good program, but they're last two years of success have been largely facilitated by P5 affiliation and a weak conference. They've done both with 3 losses. BYU has beeen better than that in the last decade. 

I'm happy for Utah, but don't really care that much. They won a PAC title, not the national title for Pete Sake. Some in here are way to focused on what they're doing.
