“Dude, this schedule excites me so much,” WR Kody Epps said on the first day of fall camp. “It is going to be fun. There are some tough games on there but I think we are going to be ready for it.”
Christopher Brooks runs the ball during a scrimmage, on day 1 of BYU Football Fall Camp, on Thursday, Aug. 4, 2022.“Dude, this schedule excites me so much,” the wide receiver said on the first day of fall camp. “It is going to be fun. There are some tough games on there but I think we are going to be ready for it.”
In total, BYU’s opponents went 90-63 last year. This was helped by five teams on the schedule that won nine or more games:• Oregon went 10-4 and went to the Pac-12 championship game;• Utah State went 11-3 and beat Oregon State in a bowl game;BYU has not played a strength of schedule higher than 33rd in the country in the independence era. That was in 2013 when BYU played Utah, Texas, Wisconsin, Washington and Notre Dame in the same season.
It turned out that BYU played a down USC and a Virginia team that followed an ACC championship season with just six wins in 2021.Other metrics can help determine a truer sense of the strength of the schedule though. One is travel, which is something the College Football Playoff committee does consider when looking at the resume of a given team.
A good indication of the distribution of quality games is that BYU is not favored to win more than two games in a row by ESPN’s FPI.
