I haven't seen the team play this year. How do they match up to previous years?

They beat #8 UCLA and now play #9 CSUN for the title.

Last year they went to the national playoff and lost in the first round and ended ranked around #7 if I remember right.

How do the #1 and #2 teams meet up in a playoff before the championship? Sorry, Answered my own question, it's a invitational tournament, not a NCAA tournament.

Also, what was the penalty that BYU received for booster violations (the whole bike incident)?

What bike incident? Were one of our players caught peddling a boosters bike?

Wow, I originally thought it was just a bike for transport that got the booster (and BYU) in trouble.

Here's the full scoop. http://newsnet.byu.edu/story.cfm/67857
