Why we should fear Oklahoma State from someone who has followed them.

The team should fear them. I won't

Why? Will they not install it later when you want it?

Great question.

HuskerFan2

YMMV but I think it depends on where they route the service when they're doing

It's honestly surprising to me that any BB-only school can recruit top guys.

Which win in an undefeated season would finally kill "BYU is lucky" argument?

StoneyCurtis

2:38pm

A shutout might do the trick.

Japan Coug

2:41pm

Yep...if BYU goes into SLC undefeated and beats Utah.....they are legit.

WJCougar

Rivalry games can have weird outcomes.

cougarmeister

Not who you beat, but HOW.

Lifer

None. BYU has #21 SMU and #17 KSU already on the resume. That is as good as it gets.

FieroCoug

Winning the Big 12. Until then, there will be doubters.

BYUtka

The Arizona game should've removed most of the doubt.

BlueFever

The fact that Steve Kerr named his son Nick isn’t talked about enough. Steve should be in prison for that.

I don't think he was.

He actually wrote about it in his memoir. Here is an excerpt. It’s in poem form

That's really cool. A homage to the New York Knickerbockers.

CougarTwins

UCF will have likely lost 4 straight when we play them.

Lifer

2:35pm

I vote for the throwing in the towel option.

Japan Coug

2:37pm

And 5 straight after we play them

Skeptical Optimist

2:37pm

It's tough to say how bad they are, too. Obviously they're struggling at QB, but CU & Cincy are both looking tough.

SinkingQuffa

2:38pm

I don't think they're "bad". Similar to Oklahoma St. Talent is there.

Lifer

2:39pm

These programs play for a pride & urgency we're not used to seeing. It's not primarily about beating BYU; it's about

SinkingQuffa

Remember last time we played and everyone thought they’d win, in the Boca Raton Bowl?

Even if they are angry.....the are not very good.

byujacob

Not sure what's crazier, that run, or the fact that he was still on the team in 2013

Knee Brace

Suh-weeeeeeeet!!! Still faster than I could run. 😀

BleedCougarBlue2

I remember Fui Vakapuna had one around that time where he fell on a guy

boorad

2:36pm

I want to say Colorado State for this one

Whitefang

That was CSU. Fui Vakapuna was an animal. He had crazy eyes.

Agreed. And were only ranked 19th before bowls. Big argument for a 24 playoff!

CopperLix All-American

2:22pm

Crazy to think — but if we run the table till our last game — we still might HAVE to beat UH to secure the title game.

SinkingQuffa Intervention Needed

2:22pm

Yes, if KState beats Iowa State and they both only have 1 loss it gets

Huge Manatee

2:24pm

We'd get the tie-breaker over KState in that case. Iowa beating KState — & then one of several 1-loss guys

SinkingQuffa

2:29pm

Does that tiebreaker still hold if you have different teams beating each other?

Huge Manatee

2:32pm

If we end up w the same 1-loss record, I think it is that simple.

SinkingQuffa

2:33pm

Then again, if there's another 1-loss team AND a perfect Iowa St squad — maybe it isn't that simple.

SinkingQuffa

2:35pm

I think when considering 3 teams, all teams have to have played each other

Huge Manatee

2:37pm

You would have to look at the multi-team tiebreaker process with three 8-1 teams

Doogal McCougar

2:38pm

You have to look at record against common opponents

Huge Manatee

2:44pm

Let's say BYU loses to UCF, and BYU, K State, and Iowa State all

UNLVcougar

2:30pm

If the next highest is a group of 7-2 or 6-3 teams, you look at the record v.

Doogal McCougar

In short, we should hope for Iowa State to go undefeated
