BYU has been about .500 since 2011 versus P5 teams

They play 10 P5 teams this year. They win half and they easily take the other two games. I think we end up 7-5 with an upside of 8-4.

All these predictions about us being at the end of the Big 12…I just don’t see it. Lots of talent on this team, and we have great coaches. I’m excited for the season.

Top 20 transfer class is huge. Those are impact players.

What’s this look like if you take Utah out?

Those historic numbers are padded with glorified g6 pac12 wins.

I know we like to bag on the P12, but let’s be honest. Those teams are as good

no they are worse, not a lot worse but the average big 12 team is better than

I don’t think the numbers would back that up (paging Indy), but I’m not going to

The PAC has more top 25 finishes total since 2011

Our win percentage against the PAC is actually lower than other conferences

What happens if you take out the yewtah losses though...

BYU with the exact same players would have looked 200% better with Jay Hill

Sometimes the defense would come on the field and I would just internally groan

25% max.

QB play will be critical. Hopefully, we’ll get the good version of Slovis.

That position will determine if we have 5 wins or 8

Having Robbins helps, at least.

I like them underestimating us

I don’t think we have the depth yet to keep that same percentage with the

4 P5 home games and 6 P5 road games makes me think 6-6 is more likely.

Blue Cat

We’re also 24-23 all time vs Big 12 opponents

And that is with more road & nearly road games than home games by several games

I agree - and this could be an above average BYU team if . . .
