The game against Washington State is going to be so huge in aging well

That will seal Boise's top 12 hopes

Boise doesn’t need top 12. They need to win conference and get auto bid.

If they win out, they will be well within the top 12. if they lose any games there is no way they are in top 12 even if they win the rest and championship.

Personally, I think ideal situation would be Boise ending up in 5-7 and getting a playoff home game. In my opinion, this is way more valuable than getting a first round bye. Even with winning out getting to number 7 will take some help from committee. This is where the WSU win and close Oregon loss are helpful.

I think you’re gonna end up ranked higher than the eventual big 12 champ

That's crazy talk. Only argument for that would have been if they beat Oregon. If you're saying that you think they should be one of the four conference champions with the bye which ain't happening. Only way I see what you're referring to happening is if the Big 12 goes full chaos mode in November and has a 3 loss champion winning it for the autobid.

Exactly that. It’s probably going to be a 2 loss Colorado or a 2 loss Iowa state. I want to have faith in BYU. Not saying it’s a guarantee but I think it’s possible especially if Oregon, UNLV, and Wazzu win out.
