The Contenders Hold the Line in a Wild Saturday If you expected chaos to crumble the top of the Big 12 standings today, you were sorely disappointed. Instead, "Separation Saturday" turned into "Statement Saturday," with the league's heavyweights refusing to blink.BYU (10-1) went into a hostile Nippert Stadium and played arguably their most complete game of the season. The 26-14 win over Cincinnati wasn't just about survival; it was a showcase of physicality. LJ Martin (222 yards, 2 TDs) was a

The latest College Football Playoff rankings have made one thing abundantly clear: the selection committee values the patch on a jersey more than the results on the field. The placement of No. 11 BYU and No. 12 Utah isn't just a slight; it is a systemic devaluation of the Big 12.BYU (9-1) finding themselves outside the top 10 is statistically baffling. The Cougars have navigated a treacherous conference schedule with only a single blemish, yet they sit behind multiple two-loss teams from the SEC and

The latest College Football Playoff rankings released Tuesday have confirmed what many in the heartland already suspected: the "brand bias" favoring the SEC and Big Ten has reached a fever pitch, and the Big 12 is the primary victim.BYU (9-1) sitting at No. 11 is the most glaring indictment of the committee's process. The Cougars possess a Strength of Record (SOR) superior to three teams ranked ahead of them—No. 8 Oklahoma, No. 9 Notre Dame, and No. 10 Alabama. It is statistically indefensible for a

The persistent ranking of traditional "blue blood" programs like Alabama and Notre Dame above teams like BYU and Utah, even when the latter hold comparable or superior records, is rooted in the subjective nature of the College Football Playoff selection process. This disparity stems primarily from three factors: historical prestige, perceived strength of schedule (SOS), and the subjective "eye test."Alabama and Notre Dame benefit significantly from historical brand equity and poll inertia.

The argument that BYU and Utah are undervalued by the College Football Playoff Committee often centers on a deep-seated institutional and brand bias that favors traditional powerhouses. Despite both teams—especially after joining the new P4 conference—amassing solid resumes, the committee’s ranking logic appears inconsistent when compared to peer teams from the SEC or Big Ten.For BYU, the undervaluation is evident even in their best years.
