play to put teams away early. The CFP clearly values margin of victory. If you are a top 10 team you should be destroying unranked teams *(unless you are in the SEC or BIG). We are required to play by different rules.

The BYU game plan seems to be the same. Win the time of possession and shorten the game. Which is great when your offense can score on nearly every possession or your defense can create points or short fields for your offense. When the offense struggles it leads to close games decided by the last possession.
