certainly they fit the bill when talking about the committees perception of their resume relative to BYU’s.

Who was the obvious team that should not have gotten in over BYU?

KYU

12/30/24 8:44am

SMU or Indiana. Based on how they had all the teams seeded in the end

IMO, our resume was definitely better than the way the team looked the last three games this season. I think that

I'd add Boise to that list.

Teams need to be penalized for playing the type of schedule Indiana played

Both SMU and Indiana

Um. How about the team they beat on the road?

That would hurt the SEC.

SMU played great down the stretch and had a very exciting conference

Your argument was never good. SMU and BYUs last game reinforces your folly.

SMU played in the ACC which was rated well behind the Big 12.

BYU had their chance to get in. Needed 1 win out of 2 games and failed.

so you are saying that BYU didn't even deserve an at large?

Saying we can't complain. It was right there for the taking.

I can complain. Try and stop me.

The exact same argument can be made regarding SMU

slatecoug

12/30/24 2:45pm

I agree. But BYU was in the drivers seat and lost 2 straight late in season.

SoValleyCOUG

12/30/24 3:19pm

And BYU still had a better resume than both SMU and Indiana

12/30/24 3:32pm

You know the committee are biased and BYU needs to be an automatic qualifier to

That's the problem, different standard depending on your team name and conf.

SMU had there chance but also lost 2. Head to head should have been factored.

ParentingNotForSissy

12/30/24 2:07pm

I agree. But they made it their championship game. That's what put them in.
