Last season has nothing to do with this season, yet everyone uses it to discredit BYU, Notre Dame, Boise etc.

The teams you listed maybe 1 or 2 would go unbeaten, but not all. I am sorry but I dont see OU or aTm going to Boise and winning, due to style they play. Also BYU plays 6 at home, most of teams you listed play 8 at home.

Really wasn't my main point, but if that makes you feel better, then OK.

Point is, they didn't beat a quality opponent with their best player in 2013 and it will be much of the same in 2014 with a shite schedule that includes zero ranked opponents.

They should have no claim for a spot in the four-team playoff unless two or three of the teams I listed decide to shite the bed. It may be possible in the SEC West, which would be a shame because BYU has absolutely no reason to be in the playoff with the cupcakes on that schedule.

Oh, yes, I forgot BYU has/had to travel to play some juggernauts in UConn and MTSU.

Anyway, this is beating a dead horse. If you think BYU will be in the four-team playoff with that schedule, that's your opinion. I just don't think a team should be rewarded for having zero ranked opponents on their schedule.
