Yep, the '84 team had some nail-biters against lesser competition
The games against Hawai'i, Wyoming, and Air Force were all decided by a touchdown or less. The Utah game wasn't decided until the 4th quarter.
ETA: Another similarity: The team went 4-0 and then had a week off in late September.

Compare this team to BYU 1984 or 1996. Compare to Utah 2004 or 2008

UU 2008 was a handful of plays away from 3 losses.

I still have no idea how TCU managed to lose to them that year.

Agree, but how is this year's BYU team (so far) not comparable to Utah 2008?

You're basing that opinion on a few close/sloppy games?
