Why doesn't that scenario also work with 10-2 Kansas State or Iowa State?

Arizona State could be 10-2 and we beat them in the rematch in the CCG?

Colorado is not the only team that can help us.

To what end? CU winning is good for BYU.

No, it isn't. It is good for the conference, but not BYU.

Meh, we clinch a CCG spot with a win and ISU, ASU and WVU losses this week

We should always be cheering for anything that gives BYU a bigger buffer

We don't have to beat Colorado as 2 teams make the Conference Championship. What buffer

If we drop 2 games then CU is the least of our worries.

Team Chaos

Sir, this doesn’t make any sense. Two teams are invited, not one. The buffer is the same.

Leave nothing to chance. Let them all lose, while BYU wins.

Leave nothing to chance? That would mean BYU winning every game. Literally counting on

No other team would be rated as high as CU or have the cache that CU has.

This does not make an ounce of sense mathematically.

TCuz

Nov 13, 4:33pm

Actually, it completely does. You're making all sorts of assumptions of who wins

Team Chaos

10-2 BYU has a 94% chance to make the CCG, Colorado is not one of the teams that

Why, you're afraid of Colorado?

This is a tough call, because CU losing is better for our title game hopes.
