Latter-day Saints are among the most patriotic, service-oriented individuals in our country. They are also unequivocally Christian—just look at who is in the name of the Church.
It is unacceptable for a government entity to characterize a faith in a manner that contradicts the religion’s own foundational tenets. I am working now to ensure a correction is made.
@cougarsportsone@CriddleBenjamin If I were a coach, give me 1,000 Kingston Flemings. Humble, willing to be coached really hard, insane athlete, relentless motor…
People are talking. Did SEC commish Greg Sankey rig the playoff committee to make sure that 2 SEC schools had to play each other this round so they were guaranteed 1 team in the Final 4? Because this is a weakling conference.
There is a universe out there where...
• Utah wins the Las Vegas Bowl
• Arizona wins the Holiday Bowl
• Cincinnati wins the Liberty Bowl
• Texas Tech wins the National Championship
And BYU is sitting 12-2 with...
• A Pop Tarts Bowl win
• Wins over 5 other Bowl winners
• Wins over 7 teams that had 8+ wins (11-2 Utah, 10-3 Arizona, 9-4 Georgia Tech, 9-4 TCU, 9-4 East Carolina, 8-4 Iowa State and 8-5 Cincinnati)
• And their only losses were to 15-1 National Champion Texas Tech
I want to live in that universe. Because we all need to have a dialogue. And a criminal investigation.
There is no P4 and G5. There are about 12 programs who want to shut out about 90 programs, and there's about 20 who get a free pass for doing nothing but have the correct letters on their 25 yard line.

Texas A&M went 7-1 in the SEC and was a tiebreaker away from making the SEC Championship Game and scored 3 total points at home against a "lowly" ACC team, so I think we need to retire the "SEC teams would go undefeated in every other conference" narrative forever
And yes I know BYU wasn’t in before the title game. That was an unprecedented screw job. They have a better resume by every metric except the logo on the helmet. Total joke. They deserved to be in before this weekend and after this weekend #ProvoDave
1. Expand the @CFBPlayoff to 16 teams.
2. Stop @CFBPlayoff ranking shows. They’re a train wreck & damage any morsel of integrity the committee has. Make Selection Sunday the lone show.
3. Create a primary sorting tool metric like NET rankings for NCAA Hoops. Limit Human Factor.
We will not let Notre Dame unethically steal it from us
We will not let ESPN Propaganda win the day
We will not let the Committee rob us.
When fairness and honestly are nowhere to be found BYU will take matters into their on hands and take it on the field.
If you're going to penalize a 1-loss Power Conference team for a weak strength of schedule... BYU's SOS is better than Ole Miss and Notre Dame.
If you're going to penalize a team for not having the strongest power ratings (which incorporate prior year's history and recruiting rankings)... BYU's FPI is higher than Oklahoma's.
If you're going to penalize a team for a non-competitive / bad loss... Alabama lost by 14 to a team with a losing record and Miami lost to two unranked teams.
If you're going to use strength-of-record like you indicated you would, BYU's SOR is the second highest of teams 6-12.
BYU also (1) made its conference championship game and (2) if you sum up the wins of the teams it has beaten, it is THIRD in the country. It is hard to win games and BYU has beaten a lot of teams with a lot of wins.
This. Makes. No. Sense.
The @CFBPlayoff should be ashamed of itself. It has literally contorted itself into a pretzel to avoid putting BYU where it should be ranked (somewhere between 6th - 9th).
RT to get the info out there. They need to feel pressure.
