I’m decidedly in the camp of byu should be in.

1 road loss to conf champs
And
1 inexcusable loss but both were single score losses

BYU v Boise on neutral I would take the cougs

BYU Clemson I would take byu

Alabama sucks I would definitely take the byu cougars on a neutral field.

Rematch vs Kansas anywhere byu wins.

They belong. The real knock is they had control and could not keep it. But they belong and you can’t show me 12 more deserving teams.
