Population, student size, on-field success, academic reputation, travel
Admittedly, I'm basing more of my metrics on the last decade or so; if others look back over the last 50 years, then BYU certainly has a stronger case

BYU vs P5 over the last 10 years

12/14/20 2:19pm
I’d redo this analysis but take out all the losses to Utah.
zsmooth
12/14/20 2:20pm
Yeah take out some of the data so BYU looks better.

Rivalry games are a different beast. You could control for P5 rivalries, too.
I'm Dynamite
12/14/20 2:27pm
The idea of a rivalry game is that it's anybody's game, regardless of record...
krindorr
12/14/20 2:38pm
It's also that the causal factors at play are a different kind than the other
I'm Dynamite
12/14/20 2:39pm
Potentially, but that's a lot more work and introduces more uncertainty
krindorr
12/14/20 6:21pm
Rivals aren't a matter of conference designation. You should know better.
CougarThug
12/14/20 8:46pm
Take out the close losses too. And add half a dozen moral victories. That’ll give you a better idea

That’s the spirit!

I'd take out the losses to Utah if BYU would stop losing to Utah
krindorr
12/14/20 2:25pm
Well that sounds harder.
zsmooth
12/14/20 4:24pm
You're a yewt. Lets not believe you were objective in this.

Haven't hid anything - want BYU to do well

You can say that but when you post things that really belong on utefans.net...
Brandoblueblood
12/14/20 6:52pm
Didn't think BYU resume was top 10 after 3 games - I stand by that
krindorr
12/14/20 7:15pm
Take out the other losses too. Then we'll be undefeated.

Thanks for this research. I have tagged him so I know in the future everything he says is garbage.

I'd suggest reading the post he's spamming

Yeah I was trying to be sarcastic.

I actually tagged you “BYU fan with questionable Ute sympathies”
zsmooth

That's probably accurate
krindorr

No, that's hyperbole if not 100% untrue.

Caveat on this data

The data sets have their problems. This one is far better for the desired concl.

Ultimately I don't think the data set tells that big a difference

I think 500 without P5 resources is pretty exceptional!

Definitely on the adjustment period

Or put Utah in its own category...so we see good P5's, "bad" P5's, and Utah

krindorr
12/15/20 2:41pm
P5s are, on average, roughly .500 against other P5s.
All-American
12/14/20 2:29pm
But how are P5 against other good P5's versus bad P5's?
Doogal McCougar
12/14/20 2:42pm
Overall BYU has won 38%. The Average P5 team wins 50%
krindorr
12/14/20 3:00pm
I guess I was analyzing non-Utah rivalry games, where we compare to the average
Doogal McCougar
12/14/20 3:07pm
It also fails to get a nice randomized sample. Utah has been a bad matchup.
I'm Dynamite
12/14/20 3:10pm
Of course the average P5 teams win 50%. That's completely meaningless.
CougarThug
12/14/20 8:49pm
Utah is 50-45 against P5 teams over that span

Without the P5 support and the recruiting, we're doing quite well.

I think BYU could, after a decade of increased P5 resources, have a similar
ZacSeljaas'Stache

Agreed - Utah had a similar adjustment period

Yep, 2 5-7 seasons to start their P5 era. I think we'd have a similar start

I love how you're still pretending to be a BYU fan...
SaintGeorgeYFan

In fact, I think we have the fundamentals to build a better program.
I'm Dynamite
12/14/20 2:37pm
BYU and Utah have been pretty similar; I'd expect them to be similar at P5 level
krindorr
12/14/20 2:51pm
Our floor is higher because we consistently get good latter-day saint athletes
D.T. Survivor

Take away Utah and it is 16 of 33. Pretty good for a school that doesn't get P5 recruiting advantages.

The financial case is strongly in BYU's favor. The rest also favor us on balance

I am confident that the finances heavily favor BYU.

And Fandom involves actually liking your team.
