BYU no 8 on the ESPN power rankings

BYULAWGUY

I will not judge Scalley. He may hate BYU but he is a man of his word

BYU Grounds Intervention Needed

10:22am

He is a man of a certain word

Ojiisan

Agreed

conetah

Let’s win and then create the acronym ALDSFUF. Or ALFUF. Loves me some acronyms.

POLL: Which game gets the late kickoff on November 9?

thewaterboy

10:21am

8pm kick at utah = a lot of plastered ute fans.

Crazy Joe Davola

10:23am

They'll put ASU later

2FarGone

10:24am

That's kinda funny to think about since UCF is an east coast team

thewaterboy

10:25am

I don't think UCF has east coast interest though, do you?

2FarGone

10:26am

Not a ton. They can't compete with the other P4 schools in their state. That's

Tickets for the Utah game haven't gone out yet from the BYU ticket office, right?

Correct

I like this top 12 ordered rank:

Went to the TCU/TTU game yesterday, some observations

Blueto

10:19am

TCU is where the rich kids go

WorfoSAUR

10:21am

Do they have certain programs there that we cannot mention?

BYU Grounds

10:26am

If you are at the game, and we win, be sure to rush the field.

conetah

10:18am

Would they fine us or Utah?

Utahs field. I think Utah.

Then yes

How many more games do we need win before we get a “lock” to the BIG 12

JohnnyC

10:14am

Three because we don't play Iowa State

2FarGone

10:16am

That’s what I was thinking.

JohnnyC

10:17am

We might need to win out. The tiebreaker isn’t in our favor.

allaboutthegainz

10:17am

If Kstate slips up, our number is 3.

Crazy Joe Davola

10:25am

As long as there are other 1 loss teams besides just K State, we can’t lock

NOCAL_YFAN

10:18am

The tiebreaker won’t even get to the opponent W% step. We can win it

Warner

10:23am

Only if it’s just BYU and K State with 1 loss

NOCAL_YFAN

10:24am

I don’t believe that’s true. Example here

Warner

10:27am

3 and Nov 9 better be 1

Yeah, that was making me lean that way.

CFP Ranking release are on November 5?

10:10am

Utah has BYU, Colorado, and ISU next 3 games - 3 of the top 4 teams in the Big12

NOCAL_YFAN

10:05am

It is not just possible, but likely, that they don't win another game.

2FarGone

10:07am

I wouldn't call it likely, there's at least a 60% chance they win 1 of the 4

Coog4Life

10:14am

I am not sure that math and football work well together.

10:20am

In fact, if I were Goordon Munson I would say…

TCuz Coastal Elite

10:04am

At BYU, red-shirting

2FarGone

I think he will go somewhere else as to not be in his brother’s shadow.

CascadeBYUFan

10:09am

Boise State. They finally get their Wilson.

Hawk in the 303

10:10am

He would be third string next year.

RC Vikings

10:16am

I've said it before. I never saw what others saw in him. I bet he he ends up at a G5. Maybe A-Rod could coach him up...

Adrielle

Last BYU qb to win in SLC wore the number 12

claw

10:03am

And it took a miracle, even though we should have wiped the floor with them.

RGGeemer

This is a key storyline that I hope coaches drill into players. And the 2005 loss.

Jake Retzlaff looks completely comfortable in this offense. He looks cool as a

brazilcoug

10:01am

I am enjoying this year, but QB play next year should be top level.

2FarGone

10:02am

And with our two best RBs back, the offense is looking automatic.

Squirt

10:02am

I honestly don’t think we are playing our best 2 RB. Now maybe Moa doesn’t know

cougaman

Ropati has really improved since returning from injury. Gets down hill fast!

fulano

He also made at least two great blocks on blitzes save Jake. Moa is going to be

rivercitycoug

He’s been much better since the Arizona game

Offensive line is doing work.

OnEMoReTrY

I watched him on the Rich Eisen show earlier this week

Endocoug

10:04am

Overall agree. He is who he is though. A little erratic. Not super accurate but makes some great throws still. Odd

Haysom Till

10:08am

Jake has several qualities that make a great QB. The program is fortunate to have him and credit to Arod for recruiting

Zach Morris

TBH, I’m having to eat a lot of my words from the offseason — and loving it.

Bossk82

ACC can have 3 teams undefeated in conference play. Hopefully SMU plays in CCG

If it is Clemson, Miami and SMU that are undefeated. SMU will be the odd one out.

Someone help me understand why BYU isn’t on this list:

Your Royal Blueness

9:55am

FPI hates BYU

Disco Lemonade

9:57am

Because FPI is still drawing 20% of its data from last year in its “ranking”.

Six Foot Seven

9:58am

Having K State and SMU is particularly silly

canuckchuck

10:00am

FPI is dumb. UW as 11th at end of 2023. Behind Oregon who they beat 2x and Texas who they beat.

JamieTartt

I'm sorry, Little Brother, being new to a Power Conference can be hard.

Honestly you sound just like the Utes sounded the last 15 years and made them the most hated team in sports.

Dr MoBYU

Dancing on their graves now. Soon it will be apathy, as it should be.

It’s the exact same amount of football.

If we had to watch it, they should as well.

RE: What would be the objective if we’re tanking this year?

Hypnotoad

Also, it's not the coach's job to tank. That's up to the front office.

Hypnotoad

10:04am

Yes, true.

hamaca

10:07am

It seems despite the FOs best efforts we might actually be bad enough

Deleted

Indeed. And I'm all for trading anyone on the roster, including George.

Hypnotoad

Kalani seemed a little unhappy that they scored those two TDs late

2FarGone No One of Consequence

We are in the CCG in a 4 way 1-loss tie as long as our L is to ASU or Houston.

RGGeemer

Thank you for doing the 3D math

Dr MoBYU

9:51am

I may have missed something but this is what it comes down to as far as I can

RGGeemer

9:53am

But, a loss in the CCG with a loss to ASU probably puts BYU out of the playoff

Blue Ridge

Sure. Win out is obviously ideal. But if you have to lose a regular season game

RGGeemer

10:01am

How much are you willing to pay to keep just one utah fan home? Buy a ticket. Even if you don’t go. Resell it on CB.
