@@connerbitnoff5181byu should’ve made the playoff. Had better or same resume as Tennessee and way better resume than Indiana and SMU. They really put ole miss above just cause they killed a bad Duke team without their qb
Duke didn't have their starting rb either. The press even attempted to rank Duke to make Ole Miss look better. The fact we're behind SMU doesn't sit right with me
BYU gets more crap than any other team in college football. I'm also gonna point out that SMU is now 0-3 against ranked teams. They lost AT HOME to then unranked BYU, they lost the ACC to #17 Clemson, and then got killed by #3 Penn State. BYU is 3-1 against top 25 opponents. We beat SMU head to head, manhandled then #13 Kansas State, and destroyes a Heisman winner, #1 QB prospect team that we were not favored to win in Colorado.
@@connerbitnoff5181 & those 3 got smoked & obviously didn’t belong in the CFP. AP putting SMU ahead of BYU w/a head to head loss in Dallas, a weaker SOS & one more loss is a prime example of group stupidity.
We could have the #1 player in the nation at EVERY position, win every game by 2+ scores, and we STILL wouldn't be ranked #1. Why? People don't like a team that has the moral standards that we have. "BYU belongs to that 'cult' church". We don't play games on Sundays, so people think we are better than everyone else. Many of our players serve missions. Just seeing how far the football team dropped after losing ONE GAME was ridiculous! Then plummeting after the second loss? No other teams were "punished" as much. Stay HUMBLE, remember who you are and HAVE FUN! DONT CHANGE, Cougs!!!
My beef is that an 8-5 Michigan team that ended the season beating Ohio State (THE national champion, for those of you who missed it) and HIGHLY-TOUTED (but ultimately lame and over-hyped) Alabama, and had wins against teams who'd shown their presence in the Rankings (like USC (what we used to call "Southern Cal"), Michigan State, Minnesota, and Northwestern) and played respectable games with ranked Indiana, Illinois, Washington, and Texas while sporting the #1 Toughest Schedule in the country got no consideration in this final poll!!! Ignorance and bias!
LIKE LAST YEARS BEGINNING, BYU must rise to the 2025 challengers. The Cougars will build on the return of many players in critical positions. Optimism is once again the Cougars 2025 season take.
From an objective point of view, there is no way BYU is not a top ten team. The truth is BYU is not liked because of the Church which sponsors it. The powers that be in college football have anx, animosity towards the Church which sponsors BYU. So they're going to take their hatred of the Church out on BYU sports teams. This is nothing new. The south, and the north, specifically the SEC and Big 10 power brokers, individually, hate the Church. Those are Bible belt and reformer sections of the United States. They hate the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It's not new. So they hate the Church's school. This is not new. It's not a revelation. So, when they say stop hate on the back of their helmets, they should look themselves in the mirror and follow their own words. Otherwise, they're hypocrites. This is simply why BYU will never be respected. Oh, and BTW, they say they believe in God and follow Him. Then why don't they choose to treat BYU and the Church, and it's members with love, as Jesus Christ taught to love one another? I care about 1 thing in life. Not what people say, but how they choose to treat me and others. That's it. Do you treat me and others how Jesus Christ teaches you to? If you choose not to, I do not have to give you any of my time or attention. Jesus left, departed from those who tried to stone Him and chose not to follow Him. Christ and Christ's followers today are not weak. We are very strong. But that's another reason we're hated. Because we boldly testify Christ is our power and strength, and give all glory to Him, instead of being like them, who say we've gotten everything by our own intellect.
Relax, BYU almost made the playoffs. If they had not lost to Kansas they'd have been in for sure. They have a totally fair shot at the playoffs next year.
Colorado seems to have been hit harder for their loss to BYU than BYU receiving a positive for their dominant win over Colorado. But just someones opinion.
It came out in the Alamo bowl game that JR was hurt the last 3 games. That explains why he played differently. Y would've beat Indiana, Boise St., & SMU in playoffs. I just lament not seeing what Y would've done against the playoff teams. Too bad. Would've been a good game even against Penn St.
It's a Fking insult, for BYU , the AP rankings are a joke ,, they put other teams ahead of BYU, they put SMU which BYU beat ,,, ahead it's a Fking insult,, BYU deserves better ,,, the AP poll sucks ,, they are a bunch of heaters ,,,,
I agree with the both of you.
I'm a gentile BYU fan. Never miss a game for over 40 years.
BYU did great. I'm looking forward to next season.
I wish the season started tomorrow...I'm having MAJOR BYU FBWD...FootBall WithDrawals!!
Absolutely ludicrous that Tennessee, SMU and Indiana finished ranked above BYU
They all made the playoffs, we didn’t 🤷♂️

12 spots in a CFP. Just need to gain 1 spot in 25/26.
Go Blue!
I'd put them 12, but 13 feels about right.
A fair ranking too bad we lost to ku asu was not as bad a loss go byu!
Utah the new UTAH ST 🤣
Correction, the new Utah Tech

To rank BYU 10-12 would be an admission of guilt/inaccuracy by the CFP. No way they ever admit they were wrong with their selections.
We should’ve been at 11

Pretty sure BYU is ranked #14 or #13 in College football 25. Maybe they were basing it off of that hahaha
Should have been above SMU minimally...
At least your conference is standing up for BYU sorry a-- acc never said a word for FSU
13 is fair I believe...well SMU...meh. next year, who knows how good TCU, UCF, WV, or Utah might be. Go Cougs!
BYU can't handle success. That is a coaching issue. Stay humble and focused and hungry, or dumb losses happen.
It came out in the Alamo bowl game that JR was hurt the last 3 games. That explains why he played differently. Y would've beat Indiana, Boise St., & SMU in playoffs. I just lament not seeing what Y would've done against the playoff teams. Too bad. Would've been a good game even against Penn St.
Bottom line: 2 losses = meh season :|
BYU should have been ahead of Boise who was wildly overrated and SMU who they beat.
It's a Fking insult, for BYU , the AP rankings are a joke ,, they put other teams ahead of BYU, they put SMU which BYU beat ,,, ahead it's a Fking insult,, BYU deserves better ,,, the AP poll sucks ,, they are a bunch of heaters ,,,,
BYU was 11 to 2………………..
