Byu #72 in remaining SOS according to ESPN FPI

Considering that most schools have almost only conference games left, is this

9/18/14 12:56pm
True, but conference is what matters most. Does that mean rankings are bogus
Football Realist

LOL, really? Pretty obvious yewt here, guys

Happens every year.

Perhaps because the Top 25 is the top 25 teams, not the top 25 schedules.
YoManCoug
9/18/14 12:58pm
How can you judge the Top 25 teams yet if they haven't played anyone important?
Football Realist
9/18/14 12:59pm
We give in BYU is horrible you are right.
midwestcoug
9/18/14 1:01pm
Houston is certainly tougher than "Bye."
YoManCoug
9/18/14 1:04pm
So if the 49ers played BYU's schedule they wouldn't qualify for the CFB Playoff?
CaliWG
9/18/14 1:10pm
That's a very strange comparison, it also doesn't apply either because byu does
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:14pm
What does playing in a conference have to do with anything?
CaliWG
9/18/14 1:20pm
You brought up the NFC comparison did you not?
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:24pm
I brought up the fact that many years the Niners' schedule was not very tough
CaliWG
9/18/14 1:30pm
Mhmm. And I addressed that in the post right after
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:35pm
Your response makes no sense
CaliWG
9/18/14 1:40pm
Sorry I don't speak "delusion." Just "realist." Enjoy your day buddy!!!
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:05pm
I'm with you, I think national champion should be decided by toughest schedule.
4mack
9/18/14 1:00pm
Just curious is all. Rankings shouldn't come out until at least Week 8 imo.
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:05pm
Because we are not #72 in the past 3 games. I'd guess we have a top
rggee
9/18/14 1:02pm
Possibly top 10.
rggee
9/18/14 1:04pm
Not actually. Week 3 Byu #72, Week 2 #75, and Week 1 #70. Preseason #67
Football Realist

Those are usually full year projections even early in the year

You're an idiot you don't even understand the stats you are
coug almighty
9/18/14 1:53pm
Calling people "idiots," it's against the rules here I thought
God bless you
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:06pm
I only called you an idiot.... [waits for rebuttal]
coug almighty
9/18/14 2:11pm
I don't think that's one of the seven words you are allowed to say on here
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:13pm
So now your back in the singular form... Must be one of those days...
coug almighty
9/18/14 2:17pm
Not if its true. Plus you didn't defend what he accused you of.
6th-Kamikaze-mission
9/18/14 2:47pm
Because the top 25 at this point is just a big guessing game
rcbyufan

Don't feed this troll, please.
cougarick
9/18/14 1:04pm
Trolls don't posts facts
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:05pm
But the only fact you posted has no relevance
docrick
9/18/14 1:12pm
You mean like how Utah went bowling in 2012?
cougarick
9/18/14 1:15pm
Yes, the 2011-2012 season. Sun Bowl against GT
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:32pm
The Sun Bowl was in 2011. Try again.
cougarick
9/18/14 1:41pm
Sorry you're struggling with this. Count on your fingers next time?
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:48pm
Yep, time to bug out. The troll is dragging me down to his level.
cougarick
9/18/14 1:54pm
I'd bug out to if I couldn't figure out something so simple
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:05pm
Sure, like that your team didn't go bowling in 2012. Seems fairly simple.
cougarick
9/18/14 2:11pm
The same year 2011-2012 season where Utah won 54-10 @ Byu. I'd try to forget
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:18pm
You post half-truths and then twisted arguments, you're killing me here LOL
BYUCougarsFan
9/18/14 2:55pm
Utah will have a much better SOS than BYU. But BYU will still be ranked higher.
boscatar
9/18/14 1:06pm
One loss and Byu won't be ranked at all, for the rest of the season
Miami!
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:09pm
Not sure, but it somehow worked for Utah in 2004 and 2008.
mulletino
9/18/14 1:06pm
In 2008 Utah beat four ranked teams, did they not? Finished 2nd in the country
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:09pm
Your SOS was in the mid 50's. GARBAGE schedule, right?
mulletino
9/18/14 1:09pm
Notice how all the MWC teams were pretty similar
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:21pm
They are considered a top 25 team because they are winning
docrick
9/18/14 1:10pm
Except they didn't win the Houston game until two minutes remaining in the game
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:11pm
Ahh you must not have watched the game
docrick
9/18/14 1:13pm
Ahh, watched every play. Streamed it online even
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:15pm
Then you aren't very realistic about football....got it
docrick
9/18/14 1:16pm
No need to get defensive and insecure, friend
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:18pm
not defensive just posting facts
docrick
9/18/14 1:20pm
I see none
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:23pm
That's because you really aren't a realist
docrick
9/18/14 1:25pm
Then you wouldn't be so offended if that were true
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:29pm
Oh I'm not offended at all; I'm giving you a dose of reality
docrick
9/18/14 1:35pm
Sorry it's having no effect. It happens.

we went up 23-0 but we didn't win it until 2:00 to go? that's funny "my friend"
run26
9/18/14 1:21pm
Even more embarrassing right?
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:01pm
LOL. It took UCLA until the last minute to beat Texas on a neutral
mulletino
9/18/14 1:13pm
With a backup QB that played the whole game and still pulled it off, shows that
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:16pm
And what about UVA and Memphis? Or does that hurt your position?
mulletino
9/18/14 1:18pm
Well I think Virginia is actually a pretty good team. I think you'll see that
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:40pm
We'll see you Monday with your endless praise for BYU then.
mulletino
9/18/14 1:44pm
Praise for what?
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:47pm
for beating a "pretty good team"

When did this happen?

You should let ESPN know so they can update the score and call it final since
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:17pm
hahaha, you should have stuck with your "facts"
4mack
9/18/14 1:14pm
wrong, they won the game with 51 seconds left in the 3rd quarter
byujag
9/18/14 1:15pm
Okay, but Houston had the opportunity to win up until the 2 minute mark or so
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:17pm
Blah blah blah, and BYU had the opportunity for a blowout if not for fluky TO's.
mulletino
9/18/14 1:19pm
If Houston had a running game it would have ended much differently I think
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:22pm
lol....if if if if
docrick
9/18/14 1:29pm
For a "realist", you sure have made a lot of conclusions based on "ifs"
jdub
9/18/14 1:34pm
Don't you think that is a problem if we cannot stop one dimensional play?!
digitalayon
9/18/14 1:54pm
they had the opportunity to tie it and we had the same opportunity to win by 16

Football Realist

Back away from the crayons
docrick
9/18/14 1:29pm
Then how will I get my degree from byu?
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:33pm
Ah, friend, don't go there
docrick
9/18/14 1:38pm
Oh so thats why the pizza delivery guy tapes his byu diploma to the windshield
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:45pm
weak...hey there is something BYU and UofU students have in common though.....
docrick

If the pizza guy wanted a real career and applied for grad school at the U

I'm great actually
Hope you have a great day too!
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:59pm
Other Top 15 teams first three games had SOS of >80
BlackBart
9/18/14 1:23pm
One of the biggest logical fallacies inherent in these kinds of arguments
gwalker
9/18/14 1:46pm
No, I didn't say Byu was #72 in current SOS, the ESPN FPI did
Football Realist
9/18/14 1:52pm
Yes. You did. When you quote something, you're still saying it. If you

Utah football 2004 and 2008 are now going to return their trophies.
lawboy
9/18/14 2:01pm
Remind me how many ranked teams Byu plays this year? Still 0? Ok!
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:11pm
Remind me why that matters when measuring overall SOS? OK, thanks.
lawboy
9/18/14 2:15pm
Then I guess Savannah St's schedule is as worthy as Byu's with that logic
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:19pm
Ask Florida St.
cubbiecougar

9/18/14 2:18pm
How many BCS bowls did Byu go to again? Still 0? OK!
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:20pm
How many NC, Heisman, Doak Walker, Davey Obrien, etc trophies do the Utes have?
CosmosCuzzn
9/18/14 2:22pm
You didn't answer the question, and now you changed the argument
jdub
9/18/14 2:25pm
When I look back on a season, all I remember is SOS. Nobody even thinks about
Broda
9/18/14 2:20pm
You are one insecure pac-12 fan.
Broda
9/18/14 2:19pm
I think you should learn your teams and how to count more accurately.
Football Realist
9/18/14 2:21pm
you're right. he meant PAC-10. UU and CU don't seem to count so far
run26
9/18/14 2:23pm
Yep, ONE team in the top 10 rankings (Oregon). Who is the other?
Broda
9/18/14 2:23pm
He is right, there are 6 in the top 10 remaining SOS list. But, that's stupid

Are you guys going to start hanging SOS banners in front of RES now?

only if they pull off the #2 SOS in the country -- and then followed by a parade
