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.
Defense travels. Guards win in March. Texas Tech had it both today as they hold the WBIT No. 1 overall seeded Virginia Tech to 20 points below their average and head to the Elite 8 on Thursday.
Maupin - 23 pts, 2 reb
Shavers - 16 pts, 7 reb
Freelon - 7 pts, 6 reb, 2 stl, 1 blk
@Whataburger worst service ever tonight. Drive thru was horrible. Waited over 20 minutes in line and only 4 cars when thru. Get my order and order is all wrong for my kids. Bedford Tx location total trash.
‘GTA 6’ will be announced as early as this week.
First trailer will release next month to celebrate Rockstar’s 25th anniversary.

The Rangers partied tonight while the Astros wrapped up their postseason vacations and quickly turned their attention to next season. Houston’s “been-there, done-that” mentality paid off, it seems.
They lost 100+ games two years ago. They led the league in blown saves. They lost the division after leading for 99% of the season. This is literally insane. 11-0 on the road in the post season. Lost the ALCS MVP and the team doesn’t even flinch.
