DID THAT FEEL LIKE A WIN?

What will it take for the cougs to get a win on Saturday? Is Baylor on the come up?

BYU is IN the College Football Playoff field — and the path from here is weirder than you think.The committee only dropped BYU one spot, to No. 10, after the Holy War loss — and with Notre Dame jumping to No. 5, BYU's win over the Irish is now a top-5 win carrying their whole résumé. So what does BYU actually need the rest of the way? Win out, let the teams ahead of them bleed… and root AGAINST going to the Big 12 championship game. Seriously. This is the Miami slide, and BYU is built for it.Plus: Bear Bachmeier threw 4 interceptions at Utah — so is he Brett Favre or Jameis Winston? The stories of Carson Beck, Johnny Manziel, and Deshaun Watson say one bad game doesn't have to be the tipping point. It can be the footnote.And Baylor comes to Provo on Saturday with substitute teacher syndrome — two fun weeks under an interim coach, zero ranked teams played all season, and a bubble that's about to meet a real team in an elimination game.Survive and advance. That's November now.🏈 IN THIS EPISODE:• CFP rankings reaction — BYU at No. 10, Notre Dame at No. 5, and what the committee is really saying about BYU• BYU's playoff path — why missing Arlington might be better than winning it, and who BYU needs to lose• Gunslinger Bear — Favre or Jameis?
