Sitake's 26-11 run has BYU in dynasty-caliber territory for the first time since its title era, but the market projects just 8.5 wins this season.

NEXT EPISODE · WHAT TO WATCH

BYU’s rise in power rating suggests a sustainable model, but the team’s ability to maintain this level depends on how well its schedule challenges it in the coming seasons. Watch whether BYU’s upcoming non-conference opponents include teams with strong defensive fronts that can test the Cougars’ offensive line.

Source of record: BYU has climbed into dynasty-caliber territory — into the top 8% of FBS by power rating over the last three seasons, up from the top 28% a year ago — a 26-11 record over the last three regular seasons.
