I would really like it if BYU were to win tonight.

It looks like BYU was able to negotiate 8 home games on BYUTV. Everything else

There's no way we split all our road games. Win 8 home games and 3-4 road games

It wasn't just physical - both Providence and Houston extended their defense above the 3 point line, aggressively hedged

And to be fair, sometimes the overall best team doesn't win the tourney

I'd say at least 2 of the 4 in OSU and ND. Not sure I think Texas is even the 2nd best SEC team. Nor do I believe PSU

You can't have a 7 game playoff in football. There are two options to try to find the best team. 1. A playoff. 2. An eye

BYU Grounds Truly Addicted User

8:44am

Let's go to 16. I'm all for it.

RGGeemer

8:45am

Forego the conference championship game and just go to 20 or 24 like FCS

Schultz is back

8:47am

Definitely an option. I like 16 w/ CCG’s though. Top 4 champs guaranteed home first round

22jrob22

8:50am

The biggest downside to that is that those teams played an extra game

Better not shrink to 8. That’s a terrible idea.

Goliath

9:00am

Yes, still very much a core aspect of fly fishing. People who only fish a few times a year are likely just buying

dingus79

9:08am

It can be more expensive to tie rather than buy if you don't fish a lot.

fulano

9:18am

I don't know how people tie flies anymore with flies being as inexpensive as they are.

Ssebo

9:07am

I like being able to tie exactly what I want, including oversizing tung beads on a smaller hook.

GfB

9:08am

I guess I just don't spend enough time fishing to have it make that big of a difference.

Ssebo

9:14am

no reason to tie if you're using just a few patterns. If you are fishing heavily

fulano

9:21am

Outside of nymphs, I really only need like 3 dry flies. No see'ums, Bionic Ant, and Olsen's front end loader caddis.

GfB

9:07am

I'm adding those to my list!

dingus79

9:10am

after tying probably hundreds of thousands when i did it for a job, I almost always buy my flies now

I’ve been tying a lot of midges. My local stream still has a little bit of open water and you can have a lot of luck

And how did that feel for us to not get a home game with ND. Golden rule

Making good on our contracts rather than big timing schools. Its the right thing

GFCougar

What about the contracts we got out of? Did we big time them?

A lot of the other contracts had out clauses if we got a P5 invite.
