I'm sure I'm in the minority, but I'd rather go 10-2 against a schedule no worse than last years and a Vegas bowl win, then to sell out to a flawed system, play nobody, and make a BCS game on a regular basis.
The hang up is the money of course, but I like a challenge. At least with a tough schedule, we can say we earned a BCS game if we ever get there.

This is the fault of the anti-Crowton crowd. Ever since Jay, Waters and myself embarassed Indy in his staunch defense of Gary Crowton's incompetence, Indy became the biggest anti-BYU fan of them all. Trully he must be Gary Crowton's nephew!

A fan of being anti-BYU = anti-BYU fan.
Saying that I do recall that a daily tactic you used as a smokescreen to camouflage your uncle's incompetence was to smeer the accomplishments of his holyness, Lavell Edwards, so perhaps you have long been an anti-BYU fan.

What the easier schedule allowed them to do as a budding program was to bump up their W-L record, which then snowballed into more national recognition and improved talent. There is no denying that after BYU's national championship and all the crap they got about their SOS, they made a conscious effort to crank up their OOC difficulty. But along with that came a lot more volatility in their W-L record. Let's take 1991. BYU was 0-3-1 against some very good BCS teams and 8-0-1 against WAC/Utah State. I'd just like BYU fans to recognize, understand and embrace their roots rather than engage in the same bullshit snobbery used against BYU in the past. Often, you come off as really intelligent, but when you see this as being some bizarre rip on LaVell, apologize for Crowton post, I honestly have to reconsider. |

Relevant, my friend, is a relative concept.
