Well, as the poll I started shows, apparently a number of fans believe that the difference between expecting BYU to win or not is who they are playing. In other words, they believe BYU is overrated and shouldn't be expected to win games against tough opponents. Even if they are WAY back in the polls...

Graham Watson Yeah, but Rice isn't consistent in any sport other than baseball and SMU just had its first bowl season since 1984. Neither one of those teams seem like attractive prospects. Besides, the Denver market would be a good get reginally for the Pac-10. Not sure Salt Lake is big enough, but...

Now I'm going to have to argue with you Gunk. ;) I do agree with most people on here that UNLV was just one game. The whole reason that this got started again yesterday was because I foolishly let Mars lead me into an argument when he thought I was crazy for saying that UNLV, not USU was our worst l...

Who are the realists you are trying to show up? I know a few people, myself included, have noted the weaknesses of BYU throughout the season but not in attempt to say they're no good or can't win a big game. Every team loses in college basketball . That's exactly the point. Declo was acting like BY...

I could see 11 or more getting in plus UTEP even though they sit at 58. I love the years when there isn't a clearly dominant team that everyone knows will win it all. IMO the best teams are Kansas, Kentucky, and Syracuse, but after that it's pretty open to debate. I look forward to a lot of upsets ...

Hmmm...let me ask you, declo, do basketball players sometimes play much better than usual, like hitting LONG shots that count for three points more often than they usually do? Absolutely. It's easy when the defense gives you open looks every time down the floor cause they didn't come ready to play....

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/powerranking?season=2010&week=15 New Mexico rose from 15 to 13. "It's fitting that New Mexico and Brigham Young stand so close in the standings, because a Feb. 27 matchup in Provo, Utah, is shaping up to be a winner-take-all contest in the MWC." BYU dropp...

Which brings me back to my original point, and I'm sorry you used the wrong Rating Percentage Index Mars and ended up looked downright human for once while trying to use facts RealTimeRPI.com posts ratings one day late, unless you pay to subscribe. I posted the current ratings at the time of my pos...

I didn't realize that the lack of effort was responsible for UNLV having their best shooting night beyond the arc for the entire season. I really had no idea that our lack of effort contributes to opponents jumpshooting percentage. Let me ask you something Schmoe, would lack of intensity/mentally n...
