The committee has no idea what they are doing.

They know exactly what they are doing.

Good point Criddle. Get this info to the committee

But Tcuz has the only stats that matter.

Just showed a wide shot inside the Huntsman Center. Not kidding, looks like fewer than 1,000 people there.

The weather and the product are bad.

The weather could be perfect and the attendance would be the same.

Clemson vs. BYU Resumes

Logo and preseason expectations

Mr. Scoobs

7:05pm

And Clemson got pounded in both games

BYU '80

7:06pm

Clemson and Alabama are ranked where they are based on brand alone.

Shinshin

7:06pm

Sure, I’ll make it make sense for you. Sagarin: Clemson #17 BYU #28 FPI: Clemson #14 BYU #30 SP+: Clemson #15 BYU #18

TCuz

7:07pm

Garbage metrics used only when convenient

coug10278

7:08pm

FPI isn’t a real metric

puntersarepeople

7:09pm

Ok, add KFord: Clemson #13 BYU #28 and Massey: Clemson #15 BYU #18

TCuz

7:11pm

Doesn’t FPI still have USC is at like 15 with their 5 losses

Kolipoki

7:11pm

It loves high recruiting rankings which artificially props up bluebloods

puntersarepeople

7:12pm

Well clearly if there is a result or two by the metrics you don’t like you just throw it out completely.

TCuz

7:13pm

That Kansas loss at home along with close wins over OSU and Utah torpedoed us

AF Cougar

7:07pm

Yet close wins over zero mwc win Nevada (3-8) by 6 and 2-9 Wyoming by four

The last 4 games, BYU won by two miracles against the two worst teams in the

Does Natty Ice have any tea in it?

It actually has green tea extract.

I don't think you guys understand. Bama has beaten 4 SEC teams this season

Beggar

RE: Link?

foofcoug

7:03pm

lol. That ridiculous conclusion is based entirely off the ranking of the top current team in each conference

TCuz

7:04pm

Late-season losses hurt. Early losses don’t. Blowouts matter.

rainorsnow

6:59pm

Like Alabama

coug10278

I forgot to add . . . SEC is exempt from these rules.

BYU is choking away chance. Can't blame the committee.

Committee reasoning

Rivers Cuomo

6:57pm

Where would 11-0 BYU be ranked right now? 3, 4, 5, or 6?

foofcoug

6:57pm

Probably 4 behind Oregon, OSU, and Texas

775coug

6:58pm

They chose a heckuva time to spit the bit.

foofcoug

7:00pm

Actually if they beat a ranked ASU on the road I can see them jumping Texas

775coug

7:00pm

They wouldn’t be near Texas with one loss

BYU '80

7:01pm

Imagine being in a place where we're ranked 4 but arguing we should be 2. Sad...

foofcoug

7:03pm

What’s near? Byu was already 3 spots away from Texas

775coug

7:05pm

You didn’t mention the Kansas game. They lost that one

BYU '80

7:07pm

The prompt this entire time has been if byu was undefeated

775coug

7:09pm

Oh you’re saying byu with one loss? No the prompt has been if byu was undefeated

775coug

7:06pm

You’re right original post was undefeated. They’d be up around 4

BYU '80

7:08pm

I dont want to think about it

I’ll always remember him for coaching Jim McMahon to the Superbowl

AF Cougar

And for getting the Fridge a Superbowl TD and not Payton.

foofcoug

6:50pm

Close wins aren't valued. Just blowouts and close losses.

IronPotato

6:45pm

Tulane has beaten nobody. Even less than bsu

BYU '80

6:45pm

And they’ve lost twice.

rivercitycoug

6:46pm

They have a #28 strength of record. The committee makes no sense.

VirginiaPeanut

6:47pm

Everyone not in the SEC & BIG10 should tell both to kick rocks. No sane person

coug10278

Acc has three teams in with comparable numbers to big12

BYU '80

6:45pm

Clemson also overrated

BYU '80

6:43pm

They’ll lose on Saturday anyway

Beggar

TV dollars run the whole thing. They've made the Big12 the new MWC. Ridiculous.

IronPotato

That people haven't seen this coming a mile away amazes me. Royalty Programs.

LeftOfNormal

The loss to Kansas was catastrophic. Image beating Kansas and losing to ASU.

CObluezone

It appears that losing games late in the season is catastrophic. Lose early you're OK.

BYU '80

To be fair, we only beat 1-BigXII-win Utah by 1.

RenoCoug

If Boise gets a first round bye, they lose by 3+ tds

TheLoanArranger

Or they’re a twelve seed on the road and lose by four TDs

Oklahoma is most likely going to have the same record as Kansas and they kicked Bamas teeth in
