All those who wanted ASU to win thinking it would help Big12 are kidding

JAGA97

This is a true statement

The logic is tough to deny

IMHO, TCU undid all the goodwill by losing by ~50 points in the title game.

slappy

Jan 1, 3:24pm

Both things are true because that should’ve made the big ten look really bad

BYU '80

Jan 1, 3:36pm

And really BYU is a player or two and a decision or two

Agreed. The public perception of BYU doesn’t have anything to do with what

Nothing against ASU. I just don’t care for Leavitt or Dillingham.

Or thousands of their biggoted trash fans.

JAGA97

I haven’t had any bad encounters with their fans.

I’m guessing you were under a rock during the week of the game this year

BYU '80

Not at all. I’m also not offended easily.

Just because you aren’t doesn’t mean the behavior wasn’t repugnant

BYU '80

Jan 1, 4:52pm

Sure, but it’s still good for BYU if BIG 12 advances in the playoffs.

EastMesaCoug

Jan 1, 4:56pm

100% agree

When you and your teen son are challenged to fight by belligerent ASU fans, then

CT98

Jan 1, 5:37pm

Absolutely. I don’t think that has anything to do with what’s better for BYU

EastMesaCoug

Jan 1, 6:43pm

Just curious, did you attend the game?

bluescholar

Jan 1, 8:50pm

Yes I did. I live in Mesa so I wasn’t going to miss it

EastMesaCoug

Jan 1, 9:13pm

My question wasn't a response to one of your posts

If you’re asking me, yes I’ve attended away games but not that one.

I was at the game in Tempe this year, overheard a few things said by ASU fans

Polecat

Is it weird that there are so many schools that have trash fans? Could it possibly be something else?

We're the baddies?

Bigoted? I think you’re mistaken here. Assuming you mean religious. ASU fans

Coug98

This is just fragile beyond fragile. Leavitt's fam's thing against BYU is silly

SinkingQuffa

Jan 1, 4:34pm

It’s not silly. It is petty and childish and disgraceful from an alum

BYU '80

Jan 1, 4:53pm

Yes, "petty" & "childish" are near-synonyms of silly. So you shouldn't be

SinkingQuffa

Jan 2, 5:15am

1000% agree. We come off as so soft as a fan base holding onto that

EastMesaCoug

Jan 1, 5:04pm

For me, an ASU win would knock down the SEC a bit....but I'm happy with ASU loss

StarMan

Jan 1, 3:26pm

It’s the G5 mentality.

tkh9

Jan 1, 3:28pm

Do you honestly not root against the SEC?

EastMesaCoug

Jan 1, 4:13pm

Sometimes. It depends on the situation.

tkh9

Jan 1, 5:26pm

More Big 12 success and less success from others = good for BYU

EastMesaCoug

Jan 1, 5:53pm

Disagree. BYUs success stands on it’s own and what ASU does won’t impact any

AlternateShot

Were you a strength of schedule guy this year? Same thing.

EastMesaCoug

Jan 1, 6:38pm

Isn’t Texas still a BIG XII team doing all this in their first year in the SEC?

LOLzzz

Jan 1, 3:28pm

What? TCU then lost 65-7 against UGA to kill any respect they gained

2FarGone

Jan 1, 3:29pm

TCU winning it would have had zero impact on this years selection or any future

JAGA97

Jan 1, 3:32pm

Which is why college football is the best sport with the worst politics

Dumb take. If you can’t see the benefit of almost beating the SEC after the ACC

OP said the committee bias isn’t going to change. OP is correct until proven

OP was a bad example though. When TCU lost by 50 that really hurt.

Wrong….. a Big 12 win today would’ve helped the entire conference.

Wrong.

Right.

Care to break down how it will actually help? Is the committee next year going

Polecat

Jan 1, 7:06pm

The committee only has so many degrees of freedom...field of play matters.

WVU_Prof

Field of play matters, but it’s not going to change how the committee operates.

You answered your own question. You can't trust the committee. BYU or ISU was

Jan 1, 7:36pm

My point, and the point of OP is that won’t actually happen. The bias won’t go

Two related but separate points are being made. First, that ASU winning would

ASU losing did not help. And naw, TCU did help. But must consistently win.

Had TCU even kept it respectable there would have been good will

Dr MoBYU

Jan 1, 4:00pm

I don't love ASU, but the play on the field matters in terms of perception.

WVU_Prof

Jan 1, 4:06pm

If the big XII is perceived as second rate then our wins are as well. We need both. Good conference and good wins

BYU Grounds

Jan 1, 4:13pm

Why do you watch sports? So winning & losing really isn't the issue anymore?

You know our cheering has nothing to do with the outcomes on the field, right?

It matters 0%. But the more BIG12 wins in the playoffs over the next several

My feelings were not hurt by ASU fans. Not sure if that's just a general

Yeah a general observation of most BYU fans in this thread.

They could have gone 4-0 and they'd still be arguing against further inclusion.

So just roll over?

EastMesaCoug

Jan 1, 6:34pm

Some still argue the earth is flat. Data makes it a weak argument. 4-0 would

ASU not getting beat by 60 absolutely helps the BIG12. I don’t think that’s

Rooting for the success of other teams is more rolling over than arguing BYU

I think that’s a pretty accepted take. BYU needs to win. BYU essentially lost a

When you take care of it on the field the argument has no legs. Now it does.

You are forgetting that the big 12 gets more money if they advance.

Come to BYU because ASU beat Texas? Yikes...I hope that's not our pitch!

Utah's past P12 love fest doesn't change the fact that B12 wins help BYU...

TCU getting murdered next is what lost that respect. Them winning was big.

an all-SEC/Big10 semi-final would cement perception that Big12 is minor league
