Interesting. So your hope for BYU is to game the system, sneak in the BCS back door undeservedly, and get lucky in a BCS bowl. I guess I can see that when you put it that way. It's not my hope for BYU, but I can see the logic.

1996? We didn't beat anyone worth a hill of beans that year leading up to the bowl game. Texas A&M was 6-6. 1984? That was our 2nd worst SOS in 30 years. So like I said before, you need to decide what's a higher priority for you: good games in September or excitement in January. |

I believe when we're BCS worthy, we'll make the BCS no matter what our schedule is. I don't believe in back dooring the BCS. First, I don't believe it's as easy or as common as you think, and second I don't believe the benefit received by gaming the BCS is that great. I believe the benefits of a tough (relatively--since my idea of tough is still a relatively weak schedule compared to other top teams), far outweigh a cream puff schedule. |

I saw Tex open the door to the possibility that he and his gay partner adopted a child.
