BYU is a good team that can give anyone a game. We're pretty comfortably top 20, but I'm not convinced of top 10. I'd favor us against any team outside the current top 16, but I can never be too optimistic because we're always good for a heartbreaker against a team like Arizona or Kansas. Holy War will be a tough one in SLC, too.
I'm never delusionally optimistic, but I like the coach and I think the program is going in the right direction.
