    I did. It was very similar to OSU's victories over SC, at Resers. They got a quick lead, played with tons of emotion and UW missed a lot of opportunities. The Beavs are traditionally a very different team on the road than at home. I think they are better than expected, but still a middle of the pack P12 team.

      I saw a portion of the third quarter and the whole fourth.

      Wisconsin's line is completely out of sorts. They looked worse than ours.

      I think we'll be able to handle OSU from a defensive standpoint.
      Will donate kidney for B12 membership.

        Hawaii:?
        Notre Dame:?
        Georgia Tech:?

        I purposely excluded the bowl game because even good BYU QBs suck in bowl games.

        I'm going to let Riley prove that he is a bada**. We will know pretty soon.
        FAIL FAIL FAIL.

        The INT. the bungled snap. The fumbles and near fumbles, even though the reviews gave them back to us.

        Really we didn't learn anything new about Riley tonight because we knew he could run for first downs, we knew he can't throw, we knew he played hard, and we knew he sometimes makes poor decisions. Tonight just showcased all of that.

        But tonight, Riley was not BARN. He was DARN.

        Rest up, Riley. game day in 5 days. New test, new opponent.

            Riley finally did something noteworthy. He is the first BYU senior qb to lose at RES since 1950.

            Badass. Where is that link for the Davey Obrien award again? Shaka?

                To be fair John Beck had those eyes until halfway through game 5 of his senior season.

                  Nothing from last nights game made me change my assessment that Riley Nelson is a badass. He's not an All-American QB, or even a mediocre one, but he's got gargantuan eggs. Jersey ripped, head-lowering will to win. He wasTimeout short of tying up the game last night.

                  Riley is what he is--a badass that will win and lose a few games per year.

                      Too bad you have no credibility when it comes to Nelson. Hey, at least we didn't lose by 40+ at home like we did last year under what's-his-name.

                        It has been insinuated, but is Hsaru really related to Heaps?

                          He did against TCU last year as well. Everything we saw from Riley last night we had already seen before, which is why I think most saw it coming.

                            I think he was even more frustrated last night than by the TCU loss. When BYUtv interviewed him after the game he seemed close to crying. He said that the big reason they lost was the mis-communication between he and the center on that fumble for the TD. He was frustrated. By far the most defeated I have seen the kid.
