Any early idea of how many fans we’ll have in Tempe?

That spike nearly killed me, too. Such incompetence, and a Twilight Zone repeat

I could forgive it if we go on a 6 game win streak now. I'll eat a beefy 5 layer burrito with my face if we do it.

foofcoug

1:11pm

You mean 7 game? I doubt we get a bye now.

AZPTCOUG

That'd be a bonus. I'm fine losing in the Finals. Don't want to be too greedy.

Eat THE beefy 5-layer burrito, and I'll be impressed.

Has it been confirmed if Jake changed Aron’s call to the fade?

Oh I rage cussed when it happened and I'm still really ticked off about it

They don’t deserve it at all. college Football is still broken.

It's a failure at multiple levels. All the way down to each individual.

Players 90%

I wouldn't be upset about the Kansas game at all if Kansas hadn't looked so terrible. That is not a good team. At no

No touching All-American

I don't believe you. You'd still be upset if Kansas had looked really good.

shoganai

1:05pm

Their last 3 games they beat 2 ranked teams and barely lost to a ranked KSU. The

SUAVO

Our D made them look bad.

IronPotato

Their defense didn't look great either.

Kansas is better than you give them credit for.

Sagarin and FPI both rate Kansas in the top 30

Off season we need to seriously pursue Jason Beck

Wasn’t he terrible at Syracuse?

sadly you maybe correct

byukarl

You will forever chase the unicorn OC that doesn't exist

byusage

1:09pm

Nonsense. We have money and are P4.

rivercitycoug

1:11pm

How many P4 teams with money are chasing the unicorn OC?

fattycoug

1:12pm

There is no OC that meets all of the expectations fans put on them

byusage

1:17pm

People won't like it but there's simply zero chance ARod gets runout of town

fattycoug

1:11pm

I will forever stand that when two teams have the same record and one team won

Warner

1:02pm

If there are several losses, I can see a disparity, but with only 1 loss?

MarylandFan

1:04pm

But they lost to a better team, so they're...better than the team who beat them?

PGVikingDad

1:10pm

Another thing lost in the conversation is that the other teams at the top of the Big 12 standings still have games left

Busting Coveys Truly Addicted User

1:01pm

Would be funny if Kansas beat ISU, BYU then Colorado

PortlandCoug

1:03pm

Could happen

MaximusMeridius

ASU appears to be a much better team than Kansas. Will be a very tough road game

ElkhunterUT

Hopefully the Houston game is an afternoon game.

allaboutthegainz

12:53pm

The late ESPN game will either be in Provo or Tucson.

My guess would be Tucson. There’s a lot of good rivalry games that week.

Every good OC still has their critics because it is pretty normal to call plays

We need an equivalent OC to our DC. No idea who.

Ones that don’t spike the ball with 1 minute on the clock and 3 timeouts.

Currently- Lane Kiffin is one of the best

1984coug

12:59pm

BYU lost for 3 reasons. 1. Mistakes 2. Inability to make a big plays in the red

byusage

12:51pm

I'd leave #3 off the list altogether. They scored 17 points with 7 being absolutely gifted to them.

foofcoug

12:54pm

The defense did great on 1st and 2nd down, but gave up several big plays on 3rd

byusage

12:59pm

3rd down is a frustration on both sides of the ball. The defense seems to do a better job of overcoming the 3rd down

foofcoug

1:03pm

I can agree that the first 2 trump the 3rd and led to the loss

byusage

1:05pm

Kansas had season low total yards, rushing yards, first downs, and tied their

Malacis

I'm convinced that if you eliminate any of those major errors you noted

MaximusMeridius

1:00pm

It’s really just one reason, the offense sucked.

asdf1986

The pooch punt was just a stoke of luck that it hit a BYU player making it a live ball in the first place.

Bronco succeeding at a program like New Mexico is such a feel good story.

If they beat Hawaii they will be bowl eligible. Bronco is an all around good man

Ode to Hoy

Hope they do, but either way they’ve already had a historic season for NM.

It’d be interesting to see what Bronco could do at BYU with P4 resources

Just depends on other teams in the rankings

0 chance.

Every year, our offense seems to get worse as the season goes on under A-Rod.

I think that's kinda the challenge of being undefeated. It's not like Oregon
