Through 2007. the MWC was 66-115 vs BCS teams.
Since becoming a member of the MWC, through 2008, BYU is 13-17 vs BCS teams. The best record of any BCS team BYU has beaten during that time is 7-5 (Washington 1999). Oregon 2006 and Georgia Tech 2003 were 7-6. Everyone else was 0.500 or worse. BYU has lost to four sub-.500 BCS teams during that period. Last edited by Indy Coug; 09-26-2008 at 04:24 PM. |

what are the percentages for the last 10 years and last 5 years for BYU and the MWC? Is there a trend? Off the top of my head I would guess there has been improvement. And why not throw in 2008 as well, since most of the conference games against the BCS this year have been played.

Well, no matter. The MWC has done really well the past 3 weeks, so that should basically counter any data you may provide for us here. Mid Major is a fictional term! We can compete with these guys!

It's 7-3 this year, by the way. So the trend seems to be upward. .500 in OOC games vs. the BCS is nothing to sneeze at since most of the 6 BCS conferences are right around .500 against each other every year.

If BYU and Utah hadn't beaten UCLA, they would have had a winning record. BEAT DOWN!
