Remarkable statistic:
Prior to Western Michigan, college football teams were 110,352 - 0 when leading after the end of regulation, dating back to 1869.
I once again don’t have time to think this all the way through, so here goes a ramble:
The CFP committee has a huge SEC problem and will disrespect BYU & Utah to avoid it!
I’m very interested to see if Kentucky falls below BYU today in the CFP rankings. Kentucky had no business being top 10 and got exposed by Tennessee. They scored less points on Tennessee than Furman, GTech, or Kennessaw State.
So 2-loss Tennessee is fine, but will their fake “top 10” win over Kentucky move them up past 2-loss #9 BYU, who lost by a score AT #3 Utah? Why should it? BYU’s win over ND got way more valuable this weekend.
Meanwhile Tennessee’s best win is Bama, Bama’s best win is Kentucky. Tennessee’s next best win is Kentucky. Kentucky’s best win is 3-loss LSU. LSU’s best win is Clemson or 4-5 Miss State? Is LSU good?
Speaking of overrated, will #10 Ole Miss keep getting so much committee respect after getting blown out at home by #2 Georgia for their 3rd loss of the year? The committee might keep propping them up.
But Ole Miss’s best win is LSU (see above) or Missouri, who is has 3 losses and was somehow ranked #18 with only one win against a team with a record over .500 (Florida, 5-4). Missouri is totally propped up.
As is 3-loss South Carolina, who’s best win is Tennessee.
So what will the committee do to 2-loss BYU? A bad 2OT loss on the road to a bad UCF team on the worst game deciding call of the season, and a close loss to #3 Utah. BYU has wins over #3 ND and #22 Arizona. Will BYU stay top 10 where they belong?
If so, it means undefeated Utah should be ranked #1 above one-loss Georgia. Georgia lost to Auburn. Utah hasn’t lost to anyone.
And what about ND? They lost to the team Utah beat. Why would Utah not be #1?

@SportyMcSports@ghostofcronair Utah was a few uncharacteristic drops away from scoring more points, and BYU was a few INT’s away from scoring more points.
I like BYU vs Utah with LJ Martin healthy on any field. Anyone who has watched BYU knows how different of a team BYU is with him.
Elon is focusing $TSLA on shareholder value.
Why make a less profitable truck instead of a very profitable taxi? Duh!
Except that removing the sexy cars from Tesla’s brand is going to damn them. Today, “Tesla” is associated with high class and amazing quality.
In 5 years, “Tesla” will just be associated with smelly, stinky, taxis in traffic.
The Cybertruck order rate far exceeds our production rate. We will try to make as many as possible before shutting down the line in about 8 months, but will have to return deposits for a lot of people.
This is not a case of Cybertruck being unprofitable, as has been misreported by legacy media, but rather that the opportunity cost of the complexity of Cybertruck is vastly outweighed by the value of incremental Cybercab production.
The most frustrating part of BYU’s season this year— is that I actually think we’d win the CCG against anyone.
Last year, it was Tech all the way. We didn’t stand a chance.
The year before, BYU missed the game, but ASU/Iowa State were intimidating.
But this year? I think BYU beats Utah on a neutral, Tech, or Houston.
It’s gonna take a miracle to prove it
Wayshon got hurt in the game right?
So the line was expecting him to play and knowing LJ was more of a decoy.
Home field always adds 3 points, so that gets it to Utah -1.5 on a neutral. Add in LJ, who is way, way more important to BYU than youre crediting him for, and I’d feel good about the game.
@ScalleysBurnerr Utah is stomping teams. Utah is the best team in the conference. I hope they run the table.
But Utah only beat a banged up BYU at home by a score.
As the post said, I think byu beats any big 12 team in a CCG this year.
They’ll only get healthier. Getting the B12 offensive player of the year back would help BYU beat a team like Utah on a neutral field.
If both teams run the table and BYU had LJ back, I think Vegas has BYU by 3 in the CCG.
