📌 Rivals in Football, but Teammates in Giving: BYU and Utah Unite Against Hunger!

Sponsor

3:25pm

"If I'm BYU, this is remarkably frustrating" - At least this is being recognized

Brandoblueblood

5:26pm

Best thing for BYU right now is to continue to feel disrespected...in any way

Preppy All-American

5:26pm

One thing BYU can be very proud of. Ranked ahead of Notre Dame

TNT

5:26pm

Kalani has more disrespect locker room material. Love it

Coug Texan

5:26pm

Greg McElroy will forever be a Cougar fan favorite. That's all it takes!

Tricky

5:26pm

This committee will not let a 1 loss BYU team in the playoffs. Mark it down.BIAS

Idacoug

5:26pm

They willi

Flippy

5:26pm

So blowing out crappy teams is better than having 2 top 25 wins. Got it CFP.

dallasbyu

5:26pm

Bring on the disrespect! Best motivation besides your butt on the bench!

FT487

5:26pm

The great thing about this system is that BYU can get a top 4 seed just by winning the conference no matter ranking.

Byron McNertney Solid 6 (8 if you're drunk)

5:26pm

Unless we lose a game, Boise will pass us with a loss

BYUFootballisBack

5:26pm

there is nothing great about getting shafted like this.

HarlemCoug

5:26pm

“Just win” but some losses are better than your wins

Littlerich All-American

5:25pm

The team's fed off disrespect this year. 4 to 5 games left. Win and will move up

Moab Rising

5:25pm

They screwed Army bad. They can win out and have no chance of getting in still.

Magneto

5:25pm

well, they would have to beat Notre Dame, so they would move up significantly if they did that

JOPE

5:26pm

13-0 or 12-1 and we're in the CFP. That's the goal

Huge Manatee

5:25pm

I think you’re nuts if you’re angry about the first CFP bracket.

Indy Coug Loquacious Lummox

5:25pm

I am not angry, I just find the double speak to be hilarious

Littlerich

5:26pm

Greg McElroy for President! He makes sense.

flyonawall

5:25pm

SEC.... SEC... Blah blah blah

Cougar TD

5:25pm

tOSU would be a tough game. I’d love to get Indiana or Tennessee

Magneto

5:25pm

Boise could beat them

What did he say

macdizzle

5:25pm

Said BYU being only 3 spots above Boise St is ridiculous

NOCAL_YFAN

5:25pm

Boise can’t possibly pass BYU right?

CycloneCoug

5:24pm

If we lose 1 time, they jump us

BYUFootballisBack

5:25pm

Then 1 loss BYU with 2 wins over top 25 would be below 1 loss Boise with 0

CycloneCoug

5:26pm

Not if we win out. If we lose in the regular season and win the Big12

BenTheBoss

5:25pm

Probably not, but Miami and IU and don’t have top 25 wins either.

Poseidon

5:26pm

But they have 1 really good loss. That's pretty good for the crowd on the hill.

Cheap Seats

5:26pm

All this proved is schedules, rankings, everything doesn't matter. They always

If Boise is ahead of BYU and gets I BYE I will lose it

Our lack of quality losses is killing us.

The SEC apologists have no shame. They've been the beneficiaries of the

LeftOfNormal

5:26pm

Keep showing us the disrespect. Keep ranking us low. 👏

Magneto

5:23pm

At least McElroy got BYU highlights showing

TNT

5:23pm

Byu and Kalani need to twist the knife at end of games more often instead

Idacoug

5:23pm

He won't do that. BYU just has to win out

TNT

5:24pm

FUEL FOR THE W!!! Time to roll against Utah...keep this going

MrSandman

5:23pm

The bias is real. The only way to change perception is to win. Just win.

Mr. Rumsfield

5:23pm

I love it... This team seems to thrive off the disrespect

Coug

5:24pm

Preach Greg!

Bigcouggy2

5:23pm

Top 13 to 3 matches AP rankings. Had to swap Ohio State and Georgia make it seem like they did any work on this.

JB2JH All-American

5:23pm

I like Greg McElroy

HimmerFredette

5:23pm

Do what does that mean at #9? Even if we win the big12 we’d be the 9 seed?

Chefcurry

5:23pm

#4 seed unless Boise gets ahead of us

BYUFootballisBack

5:24pm

Greg McElroy is our spokesman!

ElkhunterUT

5:23pm

He called our Tennessee game - he has seen what we can do.

NOCAL_YFAN

5:23pm

Undefeated. A top five strength of schedule. #9. That’s crazy math😬

Squirt

5:22pm

They did this same thing in 2020.

Benfica1

5:23pm

I appreciate the BYU love from the ESPN panel. But seriously. JUST WIN.

brj8 All-American

5:22pm

From one guy on the panel. Everyone else ignored him

CycloneCoug

They're not going to talk about BYU the whole time. They're going to

MaximusMeridius

Take care of business - we have two options to get in:

Huge Manatee

5:23pm

One guy was laughing about it though

Bluedarts

tennessee shouldn’t be ahead of BYU or indiana. their best wins are the same as BYUs, just bigger names,

FieroCoug All-American

5:22pm

Preach Greg!

NOCAL_YFAN

5:22pm

These clowns still look at BYU as a G5

VACOUGFAN

5:22pm

If you go back to SEC country, it’s how everyone views the Big12 too.

Flippy

5:24pm

That's how the SEC views everyone.

keylimesoda

5:25pm

Remind me how media value is "Literally not a factor."

AltTabbins I got UtahFootballGM banned.

5:22pm

ESPN guys hammering the committee for putting BYU at 9

Samsonite Intervention Needed

5:22pm

yup! Good for them

MrSandman

5:22pm

Just McElroy

HimmerFredette

Thats how each team was discussed after the rankings were released

MaximusMeridius

flyonawall

5:23pm

Yeah, Booger is an idiot.

The Pope

5:24pm

Just one. The other three clearly don’t care for BYU.

Flippy

5:25pm

So from 13 up they copied AP except for tOSU and Georgia

BYUFam1

5:22pm

Everyone saying the final scores don’t matter as long as we win were just proven wrong. “Style” points matter. Lame

bag All-American

5:22pm

Indiana has shown that style points are valuable. Or starting ranked (Miami).

Benfica1

5:22pm

BYU vs Ohio St would be a repeat of the 1974 Fiesta Bowl

Coug Texan

5:22pm

Go McElroy!!

flyonawall

5:22pm

NIU is the greatest football team of all time.

ProvoY

5:21pm

There are exactly two undefeated teams with a win over a top 14 team

HRCougar

OSU at #2 and seeded #5

RexIdaCoug

I wish BYU were 6, but hey, seeding higher than Alabama, Texas and Ohio State?

xgbs

My faith in the selection committee was proven false.

Methusaleh22

Bluedarts

Boise can still lose another game and will get in over Army

BYUFootballisBack

5:20pm

Not if Army beats Notre Dame...

LeftOfNormal

5:21pm

Not happening

chitownboy

5:23pm

Why is Miami 4 and BYU 9? It makes no sense

SausageKing

Exactly! Complete disrespect. BYU 2 ranked wins. Indiana with none!

sportsbro

5:21pm

They care about win margin.

Boring

5:21pm

Margin of victory matters. We need change, starting with RUTS this Saturday.

Stop allowing garbage time points.

Just the thing to keep the chip firmly on shoulder. Kick some Ute butt.

Soupie Grandma Sycamore

We win out and we get a first round bye. Imagine thinking that in August.

CascadeBYUFan

That was true in August too though

Hiccupless

I would rather be #6, but #9 helps fire up the team for the Utah game.

Sandstone Cougar Your true friend

Ranked #9, but seeded #4, so winning our conference

unsq312

5:18pm

Winning the B12 may be the only way to get in. They've undervalued the B12.

Benfica1

5:22pm

In August if I had told you that we would be pissed that we are ranked #9 with the #4 playoff seed……

CycloneCoug
