      BYU is 8-0 with 2 ranked wins (KSU & SMU both 7-1), but the rest of their schedule has been 🗑️ trash
      ▶️ 2-6 FCS team SIU,
      ▶️ 1-7 Wyoming,
      ▶️ 2-4 against the Big12 Baylor
      ▶️ 1-5 against the Big12 Arizona
      ▶️ 0-5 in Big12 Ok-State (last place)
      ▶️ 1-4 in the Big12 UCF
      ▶️ even with KSU (5-1 against Big12) their conference opponents have a 9-19 record against other big12 teams... (I only look at conference wins because the records are inflated with FCS/G5 wins but overall their opponents are 30-34, that's 16-32 outside of SMU/KSU). Next up is ⤵️
      ▶️ 1-4 in Big12 Utah
      ▶️ 1-4 in Big12 Kansas
      ▶️ 2-2 in Big12 ASU
      ▶️ 2-3 in Big12 Houston
      (their conference opponents are currently 15-30 in official Big12 conference games.. 17-32 if you include the Utah/Baylor & Arizona/KSU non-conference games).
      This is the story of the Big12, a conference full of mediocre teams & an unbalanced schedule means whoever draws the easiest schedule is likely to make the Big12 championship game

      They took a quick early 4th quarter sabbatical when the score was 34-10, seemingly. And no one should take a sizeable lead with a quarter left for granted, but certainly not BYU (and SMU). But, all's well that ends well, and credit to Rizk for going ham.

  • @augustusgrim1446
    @augustusgrim1446 3 дні тому +96

    One of the reasons why you can't figure out BYU is because the BYU coach only does what is needed to win. He doesn't run up the score. He sits on leads and is happy to have the other team spend time trying to score, so they waste the clock. Which decreases margins of victory. He tries not to embarrass the other team's coach. The other reason is that the offensive coordinator spends a lot of time overthinking and abandoning the basics that are working for something cute or unusual.

      One other thought. I know Kalani and Whit are friends, but I hope for fans sake, they don't take the foot off the peddle until the 4th quarter against the Utes. That game will probably be over by the end of the first quarter, but we need a shut out and at least 42 points to make sure Ute fans know that the only thing they are getting out of the Big 12 is a paycheck.

      This is coming from a Utah Ute fan. I really don't know why anybody really cares how high their team is ranked. I always want Utah to not be ranked. Don't put us on the top 25 ever. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter if BYU runs the table and they're undefeated. They're going to the college football playoff even if they lose the big 12 championship game. Sure they won't get a bye in that scenario, but they're still going to the college football playoff no matter what. They might even go with one loss. They're a solid team. They should be able to handle the remaining teams, even my Utes. But who gives a crap what they're ranked doesn't even matter. Rankings are stupid.

    BYU is a legitimately tough team. They are strong on both lines of scrimmage, they have playmakers on offense and sure tacklers on defense. They may not be as stone cold as Georgia on defense or as dynamic as Ohio State on offense, but this BYU team can line up and go toe to toe with most teams in the country. I think they are legit Big 12 title contenders and even legit playoff contenders. Now where will they end up? Only time will tell.

    Hey man, thanks for the kind words. Admittedly, when I caught your show/power rankings last week I was certainly very surprised by the model having BYU outside the top 30, including having us ranked behind both SMU and Kansas State, two programs whose only losses this season come to an undefeated BYU squad. That said, I can totally see where your model is coming from, because there are certainly many “hard” analytics that wouldn’t necessarily place us and our performances in a favorable light, to say the least. Thus, I agree with you that this team certainly possess certain “X factors,” amongst which might certainly include things such as high-level coaching, grit, passion, work ethic, on-and off-field intelligence, commitment to principle, to name a few. Regardless, we’ve been very blessed this season, and are doing our best to remain true to Kalani’s apt slogan and motto for this team and season: “Stay Hungry and Humble.” Once again, appreciate the kind words and, and no need to apologize. If it makes things feel any better, we BYU fans are often amongst the most skeptical of our team ourselves (and given historical precedent, could one blame us, or anyone else for holding such feelings?) Great show, and looking forward to catching future videos of yours! Excited to see how the rest of the season pans out. Anything can happen, and that’s the beauty-and, sometimes great conundrum and heartache-of college football. God bless!

    BYU has proven to be better than what Vegas & the computer models are saying, but the question is why? What are the computers getting wrong about this team? It’s not strength of record, BYU’s SOR is top 10. Could it be too much weight given to recruiting stars?
    Maybe BYU, due to its uniqueness, is able to get more underrated recruits. Maybe there are more Puka Nacuas and Fred Warners who didn’t get 5 stars in high school but have the talent in spades. Maybe the model places too much value on last year’s results - dangerous in today’s college football where rosters change and can improve quickly. Who knows?

    Vegas doesn't gamble. It makes money on people that gamble. That means they set it up so they make money no matter who wins the game. The line is set up so that you get a roughly equal number of betters on both sides. The game analytics are a secondary driver. They should tell people which side of the line to bet on, but Vegas responds to the bets, not the analytics.

    My sister and Husband graduated from BYU and I've been a fan since my high school days. Long time ago. So I'm on board with them hoping for a show down with a undefeated season between them and an undefeated ISU team in the BIG XII Championship game. I want BYU, but am pulling for ISU to make the playoff too, just to shake up the playoff system in its 1st year!

    I think BYU respects all these teams and above all each other. On the field, all they have is each other. Coaching is great, players mention them all the time. I've noticed UNLV, Vanderbilt, Boise all playing well. It's not in your face play that wins games. It's teamwork and a lot of respect for oponents and teammates. Of course there's more.

    I love college football. My brother Mike threw to Austin Collie's dad Scott at Bellarmine Prep in San Jose CA, both Mike & Scott chose BYU, a school we never heard of. Bill Walsh offered em partial Stanford scholarships, but a QB named John Elway was dominating it. Welcome BYU to the Big12 yr2. I'm betting against byu for 3 pts for the UnivOfUtah Nov9th game. No affiliation to UU here. => It only has one ranked team on its schedule (kanST). Repeat, only 1. => BYUs Defense has given up 157 pts so far compared to 83 pts amongst its closest rank teams ND(95), TX(77), TN(76). => BYU Undeafeated against cupcake teams is never a good thing. Nor squeeking by OKST by 3pts. =>BYU is ranked #12 in Coaches Poll, so something's going on there. => It has only played ONE ranked team (KanST). Credit--I noticed its offensive players are playing with strong motivation. This makes for exciting football. When BYU knocked off KanST, that's the only thing that moved its Rank chains from what i honestly see. UCF is unranked. Might also be a Big12 thing compared to BYUs prior independent status. I dont think this can be sustained, esp not in the first round of Playoffs if it gets past UU. Nov9th under the lights is guaranteed to be an exciting mashup. For those that know my bro Mike, please encourage him to start drafting his book re his football journey! My clients luv Mike's story, recommend a book

    I'm right there with ya, Josh. I have regarded BYU with skepticism all season, expecting them to lose at some point and they just haven't. In fact, they just keep winning in impressive fashion every week.
    This is coming from a season-ticket holding Utah fan. It pains me to say, but BYU is clearly the superior team this season by far. I know rivalry games can be crazy, but I honestly don't see a path for a Utah victory when BYU visits Rice-Eccles stadium on Nov 9.

    Git rid of your model and let the teams play if they win great if they don’t great. Stop falsely putting the SEC on the top. The playoffs should be 16 teams with no bye week. If you are really good you will win. If you don’t win well better luck next year. It is time to get rid of the armchair couch potatoes and let the players and coaches decide who is number one not some arbitrary pole ranking.

Great QB, great backs, great line, they can bully you...then there is special teams that are also some of the best in the country. It is just a real solid team.

  • @steeltalon2317
    @steeltalon2317 3 дні тому +3

    Josh, here are really difficult factors to quantify for BYU: Altitude-The 3rd quarter can be really hard on both the physical and psychological aspect for offensive and defensive lineman because they find themselves unable to breath at 5,000 foot elevation. Return Missionary-Some BYU players come back from their missions ready to play who are 22 years old and monsters on the field. Stadium Noise-The noise is deafening in the area of the student section. Maturity--BYU players don't make the stupid fouls that occur from many 18 year old's. Teamwork--Your a part of a much bigger purpose in life at BYU, and that manifests itself on the field in a team that works together. 4th quarter show--I know that sounds ridiculous, but opposing players will watch the show or the Wasatch Mountains instead of focusing on what the coach is saying to them. Fans--For the player who thrives on being screamed at, or yelled at by the opposing team's fans, your not going to find that during a BYU game. Instead they are generally offered ice cream. So, how Vegas quantifies those factors is beyond me.

    • @allent1034
      @allent1034 3 дні тому +4

      Funny, people typically feel sorry for the Return Missionary/maturity factor at BYU because you can't take a player out of the middle of their college career for 2 years, not let him touch a football or work out and expect him to start playing again at a high level. However, when BYU does have a good season, that same reason is touted as an advantage.

    • @jeffabbott346
      @jeffabbott346 3 дні тому +1

      And the Missionary experience factor is a myth. If it really was so effective, why don't other teams do it? Make their athletes go on missions?
      BtW Jake Retzlaff didn't go on a mission.
      Oh and how about Cam Rising being a 7 year senior for Utah. Lot of good that did them. So phooey on "experience".
      How about just being a good team with good coaches and with good players that play as a team? Think that works?

    • @jt4jt4
      @jt4jt4 2 дні тому

      The returned missionary and maturity things--I love it when people, especially opposing coaches, bring that up. Yeah... BYU has this huge advantage because they're playing grown men (who are just turning down the NFL for the glory of college football) against 18-year-olds! One of these days, one of these other coaches just might wise up and think, "Hey--I have redshirt seniors in their mid-20's with an extra year for COVID... I should play them instead of my 18-year-olds!!!" What a bunch of morons those other coaches are!
      Now, anyone who has spent any time reasoning through this will know that if an 18-year-old is playing, it's because the coach thinks he might be the best choice instead of any of his other options, like happened with UCF first playing fifth-year senior KJ Jefferson at quarterback, then trying true freshmen EJ Colson for a half and deciding--shockingly--that he wasn't ready, so they then went to redshirt sophomore (third year) Jacurri Brown. And, guess what? If BYU has great players who are true freshmen, those freshmen play! LJ Martin is our best running back. He was effectively our #1 running back for a significant time last year as a true freshman while the senior running back was injured, and now he is the guy in his second year, starting over a redshirt senior and two redshirt juniors.
      Now, the maturity issue: that's a cultural thing. There is certainly more maturity gained by those who serve missions, but you're generally going to find maturity in all the players across the board regardless of religious affiliation--many of the players are not LDS--or mission service. There is built-in maturity to the majority of LDS young men because of the expectations placed on them religiously growing up. BYU recruits players that fit that culture regardless of their background, and they usually find them among young men that have some kind of belief system, whatever that might be. Our two top quarterbacks are Jewish and Baptist. They are both great fits at BYU because of the kind of people they are, but they certainly did not serve LDS missions.
