Weakest P5 conf, losing record to MWC. Winless vs BYU. Conference was weak lol
Didn’t USC lose to Tulane?

It all hinges on the 20+ transfers they've pulled in this year

What it doesn't discuss is the absolute horrific DC BYU had for the past seven

The vibe seems to be that teams/coaches might underestimate BYU. And I like it.

If you aren't used to following BYU they can look weak in recruiting. But those 3* recruits always seem to outperform.

I think most of us are expecting 6 wins, maybe 7. Anything more than that is

That's the right approach. I still think a healthy BYU can win 7-8 but...better to temper in case there

PAC has more gimmes than the Big12. Also, you have had a decade to acclimate.

It's easy to win an argument when you don't make apples-to-apples comparisons.

We don't mock Utah for only winning 10 games. We mock Utah for somehow managing

The answer is obvious. Memorable wins on big stages. Close, forgivable losses and huge MOVs on the wins

Since when is SDSU a forgivable loss?

To be fair, that's a good point. I usually stick to Ute only outside LDS and Politics. I supposed it's the awkwardness

They weren't excellent seasons. Utah simply benefitted from being in the PAC.

6 teams ranked in the top 25? Half the conf? Heisman. Oregon that blew out BYU.

BYU was average in 2022. So what’s your point? How’d the PAC do in the playoffs?

I think the Pac struggled big time from their poor COVID policies. BYU was brilliant making hay both in 2020

BYU has gone 6-1 over the last 2 years against the PAC that you think is so great. How do you explain that?

Holding up fine vs p12. But 10 big12 (1 SEC) games in a row will be a challenge.
