To what end? CU winning is good for BYU.

No, it isn't. It is good for the conference, but not BYU.

Meh, we clinch a CCG spot with a win and ISU, ASU and WVU losses this week

We should always be cheering for anything that gives BYU a bigger buffer

Team Chaos

Nov 13, 4:22pm

We don't have to beat Colorado as 2 teams make the Conference Championship. What buffer

If we drop 2 games then CU is the least of our worries.

Sir, this doesn’t make any sense. Two teams are invited, not one. The buffer is the same.

Leave nothing to chance. Let them all lose, while BYU wins.

Leave nothing to chance? That would mean BYU winning every game. Literally counting on

A CU vs BYU conference championship with BYU 12-0 and CU 10-2 is great for BYU. It

Why doesn't that scenario also work with 10-2 Kansas State or Iowa State?

2FarGone

Nov 13, 4:40pm

No other team would be rated as high as CU or have the cache that CU has.

Nov 13, 4:41pm

This does not make an ounce of sense mathematically.

TCuz

Nov 13, 4:33pm

Actually, it completely does. You're making all sorts of assumptions of who wins

Team Chaos

10-2 BYU has a 94% chance to make the CCG, Colorado is not one of the teams that
