Would this be a good enough schedule for BYU to make the playoffs if they go undefeated?

It's not a bad schedule. I'm going to say yes.

That's seven power 5 teams on the schedule. Of course it's good enough.

Better than an ACC schedule. I’m gonna say yes.

When will Sitake start getting big time looks? He's developed a monster over there. They physically crush people.

Better than ACC schedule so yes.

I would say better than PAC schedule but half their teams on it so cancels out.

5 or so teams in the SEC would go undefeated against that schedule. It’s a good crappy schedule. If BYU dominates against everyone and the metrics and eye test say they are definitely a top 4 team then sure let them in. They are 3-0 right now but haven’t dominated.

honestly it depends. Is it good enough...yes, but alot is going to depend on what oregon does and who wins the big 10.

Lets say USC or one of the other schools in the pac 12 on the list win the conference and have a loss to BYU...they are in.

but honestly lets say the following happens

bama and uga meet undefeated in sec champ game. Its a close game. Both prolly get in.

Ohio State doesnt lose anther game or Michigan goes undefeated( ) or penn state does

then clemson runs through the weak acc

cinci goes undefeated

byu goes undefeated

oregon goes undefeated


who gets it? wont be BYU, no matter what. so like i said, unfortunately they do not control their own destiny.

Notre Dame would always be in consideration with that schedule.

Why not everyone else?

Why not? Look at Bama's rent-a-wins.

No. Notre Dame's schedule is the standard for an independent to make the playoffs

Yes

95% chance my daughter attends BYU - great on campus vibe and one of the best looking student bodies in America

Half the schedule is Pac12, plus an ACC and Big 12 team. 7 power 5s, so I’d think yes assuming there’s not 4 undefeated P5 champions

The committee will come up with all kinds of excuses to deny them if they finish undefeated even though they'd be fine putting USC, OU, or Texas in w/the exact same schedule.
