I'm sure BYU fans will be upset that our undefeated championship team only ranked as the #146 best team ever. I wasn't expecting that team to be top 25 all time but wow I had to scroll down a lot further than I thought I would to find them. At the end of the day it's another meaningless poll so it doesn't really bother me.

Maybe I'm biased since I don't remember 84, but I think the 96 team was better. Dang Washington.

146. 1984 BYU (13-0)

Titles: AP, USA/CNN, FWAA, NFF, UPI

Coach: LaVell Edwards

Led by: QB Robbie Bosco, RB Vai Sikahema

What to know: In a season in which only three schools had fewer than two losses, the Cougars, who began the season unranked, finished No. 1 because they had none. Washington (11-1) lost late, and Florida (9-1-1), on NCAA probation, didn't play in a bowl game. BYU had the offensive goods, leading the nation in total offense and passing offense.

I don't blame Washington for that loss, I blame BYU. Ed Kehl on that team admitted that they took Washington lightly and it bit them.

The description they have for that BYU team is pretty awful.
