The goals are:



1. To win the National Championship (On to 2014!!!)

2. To go to a BCS game (possible, but a Mary Samsonite chance)

3. To achieve the highest ranking possible

4. To win as many games as possible

5. To be bowl eligible and play the best bowl team possible

6. To be better than Utah



A. Cheer for BYU. Duh.



BYU over MTSU



B. Cheer for the team playing Utah. If we need help from Utah in any way then it is not worth having.



Channel your Ute hate against Ohio State this week.



C. Cheer for BYU’s opponents. This helps SOS (update complete).



Georgia Tech (3-0) over Virginia Tech

USU (2-2) over SJSU

Virginia (2-1) over Pitt

Houston (3-0) over UTSA

Wisconsin (3-1) over Ohio State

Boise State (2-2) over Southern Miss

Nevada (2-2) over Air Force

Notre Dame (3-1) over Oklahoma

Texas bye

Idaho St. doesn't matter



D. Cheer for teams playing teams ranked ahead of BYU. If both teams are ranked cheer for the lower ranked team (Of course rules A-C trump rule D).



Ole Miss over #1 Alabama

Cal over #2 Oregon

Wake Forest over #3 Clemson

Washington State over #5 Stanford

Georgia over #6 LSU

BC over #8 Florida St.

Arkansas over #10 Texas A&M

West Virginia over #11 Oklahoma St.

UCF over #12 South Carolina

South Florida over #15 Miami

Arizona over #16 Washington

Kentucky over #20 Florida

Hawaii over #25 Fresno State



E. Cheer for our Opponents’ opponents unless they are playing our opponents. This helps our SOS. The more connected a team is to our opponents the more you should cheer for them (unless it violates rules A-D). Air Force is the most connected team to our opponents as they play 4 games against them. The number by the team indicates how connected they are. If two connected teams play each other take the underdog.



North Carolina 3 over East Carolina

USC 3 over Arizona State

Colorado St. 3 over UTEP

UNLV 2 over New Mexico

Wyoming 2 over Texas State

Purdue 2 over Northern Illinois

SMU over TCU

Florida Atlantic over Rice

UAB over Vanderbilt

Florida International

Navy over Western Kentucky

Illinois over Miami OH

Minnesota over Iowa

Colorado over Oregon St.

Ball St. over Toledo

Iowa St. over Tulsa



F. Cheer for the FCS team. Because it is fun (unless it violates rules A-E)



Albany over Old Dominion



G. Cheer for the little guy



South Alabama over Tennessee

Central Michigan over NC State

Arkansas St. over Missouri
