The 2016 BYU Cougars football team attained an unusual statistic — four losses by a cumulative eight points — and not losing a game by more than three points. And to top it off, BYU won four of its games by seven points or less. To say that the season was exciting would be putting it mildly.

A perusal of the BYU Football Almanac unearths some unique statistics, which are certainly unusual, and maybe even unprecedented.
