2024 Week 5 BYU Cougars Rankings

Main Poll Voters

User	Rank	Reason
ColombianInIowa24	1	The whole top is as weird as ever. Still I can finally justify ranking BYU even if I can't quite justify ranking them this high. Up next Baylor... they aren't falling are they.
udubdavid	2
70stang	3	BYU is 4-0 with 2 P5 wins, including one away, as well as 1 away G5 win and 1 FCS. BYU's strength of opponents played is 37th.

HHcougar	12	Look, I get it. I'm a homer. Is BYU the 12th best team in the country? No, not even close. But Saturday BYU certainly LOOKED like the 12th best team, and if I can make a reasonable case for BYU to be here, I'm gonna, even if I don't fully believe it. I'm riding high on the hype train, until it inevitably crashes down, but life's too short to hedge your feelings. Plus I can put BYU ahead of Utah

Due_Connection179	16	Last Week NR vs #13 Kansas State // Won 38 - 9 // Is this an overreaction? Yes. Will I change my mind or be proven wrong about BYU being a CFP contender in the next month? Probably. But as of now, they have one of the top wins of this season, are currently 4 - 0, and have games against Baylor & Arizona in the next 3 weeks to pad their record a bit before (probably ranked games) vs Oklahoma State, at UCF, and at (current #10) Utah.

throwaway_6786	16	Wow. I only saw up to halftime of this game before falling asleep, but seriously, I didn't think BYU had it in them to win this. They didn't just win, they crushed KSU where it counts. I had regarded the Wildcats highly before this game, so BYU putting that beating on them is rather stunning. Combine that with SMU looking pretty good so far and BYU has a decent resume. Look out though, because now the Cougars head to Waco to face a Baylor team that wants to get the terrible taste of that Colorado loss out of their mouth.
