BYU is not punching above our weight class. The media won’t like BYU more

Because BYU fans think their program doesn’t belong. Stop apologizing for BYU’s success and demand accountability out of so called pundits for just bad takes. Calling BYU fraudulent or lucky is demeaning and straight disrespectful. It shows a lack of research and shows they clearly haven’t watched us play. Bunch of box score warriors

The fact is we're punching way above our weight this year. It's OK to admit it.

BYU will not lose any of regular season games left on the schedule. Mark it down. We may lose to CO in the CCG but..
