Probably the first time that, other than the patsy, we were not favored in any of the games

Difference though 3 home games and the Vegas Arizona game (so only 1 true road)

8 times in BYU football history, with 3 of those happening in the last 5 years.

Against a MUCH harder schedule that any other BYU coach has faced

Overall, recent BYU has been like this

Talent wise I would not rank this team very high at all on BYU's all time great teams...
