    Right, I get that. But he's the best that we have right now. I understand people wanting more, but when someone starts a thread like this, after Riley has a good game, just makes them looked like spoiled brats.

      Utah's offense is awful.
      Neither offense looks very good (or I'm assuming Utah's doesn't based on results), but Utah seems to have a couple explosive guys on offense that could capitalize to an extent that is outcome determinative. I don't feel like BYU has anybody like that. I just don't see BYU's offense doing anything against Utah's defense, but I can see Utah's offense getting loose on a couple plays against our D.
      So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

        I don't think Riley had a good game today. It's also likely I'm a spoiled brat.

          We might have to replay the infamous Shaka/MG exchange of 2010.

            I'm not talking about you. Riley had a good game. It wasn't a great game. He threw for a lot of yards in just one half and was missing his #2 receiver.

            I spent years in the south stands and every week I'd hear the same people complaining about the QB. It didn't matter who won or by how much, but any incompletion, sack, or interception always led to people wanting the QB to be pulled. Some people (not you) just can't accept someone for what they are and just enjoy the ride.

              ha. When Shaka totally lost his cool and started at me with the personal insults? Yeah, that wasn't his finest hour.

                It's ok, you can just say me. I'm pretty much in that position right now.

                  ??? This is a strange ret(h)read. BYU fans should worry about the O-line and the running game if anything. Riley is a great leader with mediocre talent by BYU standards but we know this already. Move on.

                    I liked Heaps a lot better.

                          This. The O-line is the #1 concern IMO.

                            To be fair he only wondered if she was hot, he is at heart ardently pro-woman.

                              You bitches ( ) are so spoiled with your QB play! I hate you all. Other than 2003, you guys just don't know the depths of bad QB play.

                                I was excited when I first heard Doman was whipping the O-line into shape and making them lose weight. I'm not so excited about that anymore. Now I'm thinking we need to get these guys several pasta troughs and let them graze.
