If #14 ranked BYU beats #21 ASU last week, what would we be ranked now?

Magneto

9:18am

10. Lots of other teams also lost.

ColtsCoug

Top 10.

If byu somehow sneaks in as a 4 seed i hope penn state is a 5 seed

What are ACC tiebreakers? Doesn't Miami have to lose to get Clemson in CCG?

rcbyufan

You’re right Miami needs to lose to Syracuse. It’s currently 1 SMU and 2 Clemson

Magneto

Yes, Miami has the tiebreaker over Clemson as Miami beat Louisville and Clemson didn’t

Not sure you got the top brands right. Why UCF? Where are TT & OSU? Plus

FrontLineFan

Top brands prioritized... how?

acadian8

9:07am

Agreed. Refs should be penalized for bad calls against byu like false face mask

Longseason

NO, no. The system is the REAL problem. Big12 should continue to worry about promoting a competitive, entertaining conf.

I think BSU losses to UNLV. Teams have figured out how to play them now and

Magneto

8:52am

That is why Tulane is so high, in case Boise loses

88Coug

8:54am

Same with why UNLV is ranked. A Boise win gives the committee an excuse to slant

bigbossbyu

8:57am

It's getting worse because there are more opportunities to stack the deck.

acadian8

9:09am

Does unlv have tie breaker over csu?

cougarfann888

8:58am

Yes. I believe it heads to computer rankings due to no head to head.

allaboutthegainz

Yes it’s whomever is ranked higher in the CFP poll to ensure a team gets in.
