This year, they like us would be rightly eliminated. “Absolutely yes”. This is your position.
It’s lonely on that island, but yes you could be right. You aren’t. But this is the hill you want to die on.
Oh and I don’t play for byu or coach them. Of course the guys should win the conference as that is the only guarantee but since there are at large spots, which you say you know what that means, there will generally be discussion about who should get those. Every team should try to win and not rely on the cfp.
Happy new year
