    • TedBot is like the idiots on social media who jump into the comments of a post about something apolitical and immediately make a Biden or Trump comment. Of course, they are mostly Russian bots., so now that I think about it, it makes perfect sense. BTW Uncle in Russian is дядя (pronounced dyada) so from now on Uncle TedBot shall be known to me as Dyada TedBot

        It was just to give comparable probability to get a feel of the possibility... Not politics.


        Would you rather me say that it is like rolling exactly one "6" on a fair dice if you roll six times?

        i.e., P = (6 1) X (1/6)^1 X (5/6)^5 = 40.19%

        If you do then you are a nerd!

          Because political references are so cool!

          100 times yes, I would take the probability equation over a political reference!

                  For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                  Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                  • I'm biased in favor of Connor Pay (I grew up in his grandparents' ward and knew his dad when I was a really small kid), but is Bruce Mitchell playing better than Connor Pay?

                    I'm by no means an expert, and the sample size is small, but....

                      That Bruce Mitchell isn't a top subject of discussion on BYU socials is a testament to how well he's played. What a phenomenal story and talent.

                        I remember doing the PFF grades last season and Connor Pay not once showed up in the top ten (although I got those from SI and I'm now questioning if they were correct as I'm seeing this season that they differ from what is shown in the PFF post game show). In the Oklahoma St game this past week, Bruce Mitchell was graded as our 5th best (non QB). So there's that.

                        Also, in other news, I saw that Connor Pay and Chase Roberts have started a podcast on BYU tv/radio called "Two Point Conversion" where they discuss the weekly Come Follow Me lesson. I'm gonna check it out!

                          Sounds like they're living right, on and off the field. I think some magic is going to happen!

                          • Up to #9 in the AP. FPI now gives a 32% chance of winning the conference and a 57% chance of making the playoff.
