Kind of insulting to be grouped with Indiana. We are way more of a brand in
football than the Hoosiers. We are also more of a brand than half the Big10 and a few SEC teams.

We are, but I get his angle. Like he suggests, it shouldn't matter.

It's true. The BYU brand isn't Texas, tOSU, Bama, Georgia, ND, or USC. But, if

Yep. "Brand" is worth something when rankings are being done subjectively.

I don't think we can afford a loss given the initial ranking

He’s right but what he’s missing is that they care about conference, not school.

Good points. The Committee & networks are rooting for the Colorado Deions in B12

BYU under LaVell completely reshaped CFB, but BYU is not a "Brand"?

To me personally, "brand" means that your hoodie is in many Walmarts or

But the difference with BYU is there are people who aren’t college sports fans

there is lots of BYU branded stuff each year at Walmarts and Sams clubs in Mesa

We're currently #42 in viewership among college football teams and #10 among Big 12 teams.

Not a fair comparison. ESPN puts BYU at 8:15 knowing the viewers won't be there,
spidercoug
Nov 6, 3:24pm
So the argument is that ESPN purposely gives us worse times because we're such a strong brand?
krindorr
Nov 6, 3:48pm
Just wondering... Which of those 76+ teams had 3m viewers in the 8:15 time slot?

Last year we had 6 mid-day/prime viewing windows on ESPN, ABC or FOX

How many strong brands has a rival who is not also a strong brand?

And I'd argue that late games are (if anything) a sign of not being a huge brand
krindorr
Nov 6, 6:02pm
That is kinda the point. We play at 8:15 because we are not a brand...

We're a brand. Just not a strong brand.

That's fair. Definitely depends on what the definition of brand is

A substantial number of people recognize the BYU name from football, even when

BYU fans overplay that we are a national brand. The viewership data doesn't support this.
