BYU fans overplay that we are a national brand. The viewership data doesn't support this.
We travel very well and that is a great thing but that doesn't make us a national brand.

Kind of insulting to be grouped with Indiana. We are way more of a brand in

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

Yeah, but good or bad, still a brand

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

In that scenario, where would they have gotten their items? That's kind of

They buy them from the BYU Store when they come for education week 😂

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

In Mesa, that doesn't surprise me. If I saw it in New York City, or Miami, then

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

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
