Never a real contender to win it all, but were a legit playoff contender. They have an easy path to the B1GCG, and if they go there undefeated and pull one upset, they're in, and then they get beat badly by Bama/Georgia/Oklahoma/Clemson

Personally, I don't even know why people honestly discuss this stuff this early in the sesaon.

Where was your own Bulldogs last year at this time? Not really even on anybodies radar.

Not going to happen...they're not going anywhere...

Not anymore unless there's chaos, but an undefeated P5 team is going, and before today, everyone thought they had a real shot to be undefeated heading into the B1GCG

True.

Take your medicine.

Most people are cool as shit when you own it. You're owning it thus far. :thumb:

It is what it is...they thought they were good enough to just roll thru this team and they got their asses kicked...that's what happens when you read about being good..when you're not as good as you would like to believe.

We were right outside of the top 10 IIRC. We had the big road win at Notre Dame helping us out though.

See.

We all aren't unalike when it comes down to it.

What you just posted was my exact thoughts about that game.

BYU is a Mid Major

Throw all the chocolate ice cream you want. I was not claiming talent level of the team, I was stating the fact that every team that plays them claims it is a p5 ooc game. Just like the teams that schedule Notre Dame.

P5's who require X amount of P5 Non-con allow a couple Independents to satisfy the requirement, it doesnt mean talent level, coaching level, school size, attendance, fan participation, any other metric conceivable for college football, is the same as P5. I could see BSU qualifying because they arent a shit team that you have to ask if they are even FBS when you see them on a schedule. That is all that means.

I thought BYU wanted this game more than Wisconsin. The Badgers looked listless and were beaten at the line of scrimmage.

Yes they were...hell they pulled their starting center and right guard for sucking...that's not ready to play...they got their asses handed to them on both sides of the ball at the line of scrimmage.

The Badgers might play in a minor Bowl game. The so called experts that had them ranked #6 look foolish now.

As I said, I make no claims to talent. As far as attendance they have averaged 60k per game, in a 63k stadium. Also by school size they qualify.

Still cant argue talent, so nice job getting 1 of 4 right.

They are MidMajors nonetheless Even if i am wrong on 3/4 the only one that matters is quality on a consistent basis If they start playing all the top dogs in p5 conferences it will be different

THAT DOESNT MAKE THEM p5 they are still Mid Major, they are just top of the Mid Major food chain is all. Stupid ass people who think BYU is P5 are stupid ass people. Anyone who argues otherwise is just a stupid ass person.

Stupid ass person
