Why do I get the feeling if we would have beat UCLA you would still be pissed

because that would drop UCLA out of the top 20? Then you would complain that we still can't beat the only top 20 team that we had played in Michigan and the schedule was not that good.

Sagarin Rankings indicates good and bad news for BYU football

Did we need a statistical analysis to tell us any of that? We lost to the 2 best

Is your BYU football cup always half-empty?

10-2 would be fantastic for this year, with all the injuries and player issues.

Yes 10-2 knowing you lost to the two best teams could be viewed

10-2 and a top 25 ranking is a success imo

Appreciate the candor, but c'mon now

How can you say there wasn't any progression if we finish a 10-2 season with

serious question for you?

Quite a few of us actually - Sagarin is a better indicator than polls IMO

I'm not persuaded the football database is large enough for sagarin to

Don't believe rankings. We know what we've seen on the field, & it is good.

ECU beat Virginia Tech and lost to Florida by 7 points

Miami and Va Tech aren't good teams this year.

RSLCoug

11/4/15 9:55am

Disagree that it means we have accomplished very little

Jericho

I view your opinion as a poor one

Cougarealist

11/4/15 9:54am

I think top 20 is a major stretch.

RSLCoug

11/4/15 9:56am

Very good chance we start the season in the top 25 next year if we win out

Jericho

11/4/15 9:58am

So you're not happy unless BYU is top 5 or 10. Got it. Also, nice frowny face

Niiineteeen84

11/4/15 9:55am

WRONG. I have stated many times on CB that I have no expectation about top 10

run26

11/4/15 9:58am

So if we win out we will be ranked in the top 20 and that is the "bad news"

BYUheaven

And if BYU had beaten UCLA

fan_byu

11/4/15 9:56am

haha, beat me to it

BYUheaven

11/4/15 9:59am

Yeah, we all view it differently.

BYUheaven

11/4/15 9:58am

if we beat UCLA and then lose to Mich 31-0 yes I would still be "pissed"

run26

11/4/15 10:00am

i think it shows we are about #25-30. which i think is about right.

There is a way to do this analysis, but you haven't done it.

My thoughts after reading your post:

jonnnylingo

11/4/15 10:12am

10-2 a dissapointment?! Wow

rggee

11/4/15 10:12am

Biggest wet blanket on earth.

mulletYno

11/4/15 10:12am

Most teams tanked around 30 will have a bad loss somewhere

wapiti

11/4/15 10:24am

Two game ago you were predicting 8-5. Now 10-2 disappoints you.

Florwood

11/4/15 10:53am

its not a contradiction

run26

11/4/15 11:00am

Sorry, I refuse to cry all the time. 10-2 would be great.

My advice: Try to enjoy things more, run26. Nobody likes a Negative Nancy.

I bet you're a real gas at parties.

I'd be more than willing to bet in 1984

CasualFan

11/4/15 1:57pm

You're probably right.

DB Cooper

11/4/15 1:59pm

So, we beat the teams worse than us and lost to those better. Noted
