In college football, getting to a bowl game is a benchmark of success for most programs. Now that BYU is in the Big 12 Conference, frankly, any expectations higher than getting to a bowl at 6-6 may be towards the realm of Dreamland.
If BYU gets to a bowl game in their first season in the Big 12, it will be a successful inaugural season.
How can BYU get there?
Non-conference
With nine conference games, BYU is slated to play three games outside of Big 12 play. They open at home with Sam Houston, who is beginning their first season as an FBS program.
