U vs. Y '12

[Topper]

I am not sure we ever could have been that good. BYU's biggest problem is it's recruiting base. But if we didn't hurt ourselves when we face more athletic teams we could do better than we are doing.

BYU is undisciplined and unfocused. Too many damned firesides.

Those UofUtah fans were stooooopid. And that is a square-dancing song.

The thing is, we HAVE been that good before! It just doesn't matter to the BYU powers that be anymore.

Van Noy deserves better than Riley Nelson. That dude is a one man army.

[CJF]

I, ever the optimist, said, maybe not this year.

lol. Where was that guy tonight?

[SeattleUte]

I believe BYU has won a game on the Sabbath (B-Ball at Wyo, I recall).

Ox in the mire, eh.

[CardiacCoug]

There were a ton of horrible play calls, a slew of boneheaded false starts, and general bad play by DA, RN, but I didn't notice us getting out classed athletically.

Sure, I agree. Sorry for the double negative. Colly was saying Whit made the right choice to go to Utah because they can recruit better athletes. I agree with you and meant that BYU has as good of athletes as Utah. But they made all kinds of mistakes that you would hope smart, older players wouldn't make. 10 false starts?

As soon as Bronco's undisciplined, unfocused team took the field, he left to bury his head in shame.

[Surfah]

Bronco is not a great head coach. I don't care what his record is. But he has maxed out and reached the ceiling of his potential as the head guy. He can be a great DC anywhere in D1, I am convinced of that. But he isn't the guy to take us to the next level. Unfortunately, the only guy that can we can't wrestle away from the hill. We have no other option, and that sucks.

This season is now busted. Turn the offense over to Taysom and let him develop and get the experience he'll need so we're not completely embarrassed next year. We have a couple tough games left, but enough patsies to get to our pre-determined bowl.

I love Doman. I do. But he's testing our relationship mightily right now. I didn't think it would take this long for him to get a handle on this offense. Running off Anae was a poor move. I'd take him back in a heartbeat. I'd take predictable over the option and these ill-devised run plays. That said, I still think Doman will get it. But that time needs to come sooner than later.

[PaloAltoCougar]

Ox in the moire, eh.

I envisioned our resident Fora.tv exec superimposed on this:

[Green Monstah]

Signed the guy who doesn't know what the problem is. You might be the least informed sports poster here. GTFO.

Says the dipshit who offers zero analysis and simply moans about how. Ad he hates everyone here. If you hate it then leave, jackass.

Whit is thanking his lucky stars, he doesn't have to deal with the boneheads in BYU administration and that damned HC.

[Blueintheface]

Utah has a quarterback starting who wasn't recruited by a single other DI school, was at Nebraska Omaha before they cancelled their football program, and John White was injured. Last year it was all John White and defense that got Utah a winning season. I think you're a little quick to judge your defense.

Not biting. The BYU defense is excellent. BJ's call after the turnover was a great call.

[All-American]

Well, frustrating loss, but at least we put up a fight this time. I had visions of last year when Utah reeled off 17 straight in the third. Instead, we clawed back and came within inches of sending it into overtime.

Sometimes you win 'em, sometimes you lose 'em.

Until next year.

lol. Ok. So you're a slow learner. Understood.
