POLL: Who has an easier path to the playoffs under the current playoff system

screw good for the conference--I hope Sark and Texas humiliates ASU.

BYU had a great season. But the saddest part of all is both losses were winnable

Hinta

10:34pm

The happiest is part is that 11 wins were losable.

byujacob

10:36pm

Yep, at the end of two of BYU's wins, BYU had a 99% probability of loosing, yet

BikeGuy

You prefer those years we have a few games that ain't winnable?

HouseDeeking

They beat ranked teams this year. They weren’t as bad as their record.

SCougarfan

10:41pm

Kansas was better than OSU and Utah

BYU '80

10:43pm

Yep, hard to complain too much about our losses when we were so close to losing

The fact the Big12 gets exactly the same number of playoff slots as the MWC

Our conference champion will more than likely get blown out just as badly

This is nonsense. It should be determined on the field. Opinions are often

One of the best things about “the cut”. Lassiter says he’s thinking about coming

BYU '80

10:23pm

He said that before the bowl game too, but yeah, it would be good for us

Jericho

10:25pm

Of course he’s welcome back but would we be better off?

Yukon

10:33pm

Lassiter is great. I’d love him back

ATX

10:34pm

You must be joking. Lassiter is a proven starter. We’d be stupid not to take him

Jericho

10:35pm

I get frustrated with drops, but... Yeah, we want him back.

Squeegee

10:37pm

Yes, we would be better off and to suggest otherwise is absurd.

Black Diamond Bay

10:38pm

I agree in part and I might feel differently if it meant losing young talent

BYU '80

10:41pm

That really doesn't matter anymore with the portal. Ideally yes.

byubyu

10:43pm

Agreed. Also, if we could lure a Lassiter type WR to come to BYU for one season

Jericho

10:44pm

He's a playmaker. We absolutely want him back

txblue

IMO it’s in his best interest to play another year and try to improve his draft stock. He’s a good player but needs

maweien

Demin better step up. No way we'd win tourney games with his performance the way

Give him some time back. It was his first game in almost a month.

MwangoleCoug9

At the end of the cut was that Lassiter saying he might be back?

gwalker

It's a real possibility. Would love to have him for one more year

Jericho

10:13pm

Yup

Coug98

10:13pm

Penn state may also be a fraud. I’m glad we get to find out on the field though

byuTX mutual friends

10:08pm

Yeah, I guess we will find out starting in the semis.

garyfan

10:13pm

Not if they get to play UGA without their QB

Charles Darwin

10:17pm

I wouldn’t call them a fraud even if they lose in the semis

Odysseus

10:15pm

Fraud isn't the right word, but i don't think they are one of the 4 best teams.

Methusaleh22

10:19pm

They do a good job consistently beating and losing to the teams they should

I agree. But nobody benefits more from inflated SOS than the Big 10 so even then, some lesser teams can sneak in.

They hung in there. Bad kicking and a bad penalty on what would've been a TD.

We played our schedule and won every game.

Boise beat exactly one ranked team and lost to two of them.

tacallaway

They’ve had better teams. Kellen Moore teams could have competed with anyone

BYU '80

9:46pm

Yeah, this is one of BSU's weaker "great" teams.

Jericho

9:48pm

They scheduled preseason number three and another power conference team

BYU '80

9:47pm

15 guys from that ‘84 team were eventually drafted in the NFL. BSU has Jeanty.

Housemartin

Key fact: they didn't lose to (checks notes) ANY team that year.

We proved them wrong. BSU proved them right.
