Athlon Sports recently released the rankings for all 130 FBS teams going into next season. Although fans would like to see BYU Football higher than they currently are, it is important to remember that the Cougars are coming off a 7-6 season, despite how good the bowl game felt.
A 7-6 season would rank most G5 teams (whether considered P5 or not BYU is normally ranked as a G5) in the 60-70 range and anything above that is impressive.
The Cougars came onto the list ranked at No. 53 which is respectable given their low recruiting rank and record from 2018.
