scott715Sorry I've been out of touch last week. Here it is in case you want to see it.
The goals for BYU are:
1. To win the National Championship
2. To go to a NY6 bowl game
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 get into the Big 12
7. To be better than Utah
If you want to see these goals accomplished here is your rooting guide:
A. Cheer for BYU. Duh.
BYU over Utah
B. Cheer for the team playing Utah. Because there is no reason to cheer for Utah
It's worth repeating. BYU over Utah
C. Cheer for BYUâs opponents. This helps SOS.
Arizona (0-1) over Grambling (1-0)
UCLA (0-1) over UNLV (1-0)
West Virginia (1-0) over Youngstown State (1-0)
Toledo (1-0) over Maine (0-1)
Mississippi State (0-1) over South Carolina (1-0)
Boise State (1-0) over Washington State (0-1)
Cincinnati (1-0) over Purdue (1-0)
Southern Utah (0-1) over Southeastern Louisiana (0-1)
UMass (0-1) over BC (0-1)
Utah State (1-0) over USC (0-1)
D. Cheer for teams playing teams ranked ahead of BYU. Cheer for unranked teams vs. ranked teams. If both teams are ranked ahead of BYU cheer for the higher ranked (Of course rules A-C trump rule D).

E. Cheer for teams playing potential programs that could get into the Big 12 over BYU (Unless it violates rules A-D)
Navy over UConn

F. Cheer for our Opponentsâ opponents unless they are playing our opponents. This helps our SOS in virtually every SOS calculation. The more connected a team is to our opponents the more you should cheer for them (unless it violates rules A-E). For example, Oregon St. is the most connected team to our opponents as they play 4 games against them (UCLA, Arizona, Utah, Boise St.). The number by the team indicates how connected they are. If the numbers are equal take the team who has lost or will most likely lose to our opponents.
