I'm tired of Drake Toll. He's saying we were supposed to be the team that gave respect to the B12 and slams us over it.

If we recapture the fire we had in the first 3 games.. yes. If we don't make any changes, no.

AltTabbins

2:58pm

Absolutely. They have been driving on offense all year they have just struggled finishing

CSoul

2:59pm

Defenses have figured ARod out.

Archaea

3:00pm

No they haven't. Kansas didn't "figure us out". It's fixable.

CSoul

3:01pm

of course

JOPE

3:00pm

Not as the offense is presently constituted. Can they get it together? Who knows

We’ll have to get turnovers and points out of them.

I’ll ask this again since nobody replied last time . BYU has some guy named Matt

We all expected a shootout. We got the opposite.

True or false...the BYU vs ASU game is essentially a CCG play-in game for both

Of course it is.

You are drunk on your own pessimism and projecting it on the team

puntersarepeople

3:02pm

So you think the offense is progressing?

Archaea

3:02pm

We were three plays from winning that game 20-3. 1. Uncalled massive offensive PI that allowed them to get the first TD.

MHallDidNothingWr0ng

3:00pm

Offense scored 13 and 22 points.

Archaea

3:01pm

Why are you even a BYU fan if that's the way you view the football program? Sounds like a miserable way to fan.

MHallDidNothingWr0ng

3:02pm

Uh 9-1 is competing…

GoodBetterBestBYU

3:01pm

Competing means winning everything you have a chance to win

Man, some of you guys are unstable. BYU is going to be a 10 win team, maybe more. All while playing in a P4

The worst thing about the fade throw yesterday

We have play makers. That’s is who should be targeted especially in the RZ

The problem is that Jake made the wrong decision. Perhaps the team needs to

The fade cost BYU the game. If BYU gets a FG they go into the half 13-10. Then

That was only 1 option. Should only be thrown if the TE is totally open

You'd be better off using that spot on someone like Blake Corum or Cam Akers

Yep. I don’t miss independence at all. The season was over in oct

NYCougz

I doubt A Rod purposefully constructed together a 10-minute drive to start

brazilcoug

Not finishing drives=bad offense

idcougarfan

I’m not here to argue that point.

brazilcoug

When Kansas had the ball, they only had one sustained drive

Idacoug

2:59pm

13 points = bad

Still Blue

2:37pm

Yup. Yards and TOP doesn't matter. Points are what wins games and they got 3 in the second half.

Don’t know for sure, but I imagine the receiving team’s player has to actually

XORCoug

2:39pm

When it hits a player in the back of the head he wasn't preparing to catch it.

Bonoman

2:44pm

He wasn't a punt receiver. It'd be the same if the punt hit a player blocking a gunner.

foofcoug

2:41pm

Got it. Without a designated punt receiver there is no interference?

GoodBetterBestBYU

2:45pm

Doesn't have to be designated. Had Johnson turned and tried to receive the ball or signal fair catch, then you could

foofcoug

2:48pm

Pooch kick is so rare…

GoodBetterBestBYU

2:53pm

“Kick catch interference” requires an attempt to catch.

If we had lost to Okla st, I would’ve been frustrated but tip my cap to them.

Mr. Scoobs

2:34pm

Our defense was completely lost that game. Jake bailed us out. Kansas was the

2:43pm

Yep. Perspective. Offense had to bail out 2nd Q defense meltdown at U. This team has found ways to win together.

GoodBetterBestBYU

2:46pm

That’s been the strength of the team. All groups play hard and believ in each

puntersarepeople

2:49pm

Defense crapped the bed on the punt. Not many possessions that game. So many

Dude it was one of the top 5 flukiest plays of our lifetime. Easy on the defense who played their hearts out.

This year? Better than Sark’s jr year

Oh man. He's not as good as Walsh. That's just nuts

When you factor his running ability vs Walsh's total inability to run he

oxcoug

2:37pm

I.e. that 5. whatever combine 40 that got him run from the NFL draft

oxcoug

2:40pm

I'll take a guy who is capable of throwing over 600 yards in a game

Belboz

2:43pm

Walsh went 2-6 vs current power programs. Got destroyed on most of those

oxcoug

2:48pm

Yeah, BYU had terrible defenses those years

Belboz

2:52pm

We scored 14 and he threw three INTs vs UCLA. Hard to write that off to our D.

oxcoug

2:57pm

Some of Retzlaff's big wins (SMU and Utah)

cwilke1

3:01pm

Sure. I wouldn't argue with that. Retz made a great play to get that SMU win tho

oxcoug

3:02pm

Because our defenses sucked.

NYCougz

2:53pm

Mmm hmm. See above.

oxcoug

2:57pm

Neither Walsh nor Retzlaff are playing defense and special teams. Retzlaff has

2:58pm

Different eras… qb’s didn’t run back then unless you’re Randall Cunningham

Das_Countach

2:42pm

How often does Retzlaff throw for 300, 400, 500, 619 yards in a game?

Belboz

2:43pm

As noted above. Walsh played UTEP twice, New Mexico, etc etc. And went 2-6 and

oxcoug

2:49pm

he played schedules similar to those of Wilson, McMahon, Steve Young, Bosco

Belboz

2:54pm

I was at the USU game but in general count me unimpressed with his leadership

GoodBetterBestBYU

2:54pm

Walsh is very underrated in byu lore

NYCougz

2:39pm

Walsh gets a bad rap because he didn’t beat Utah and BYU had horrid defenses

arizonacougarfan

2:45pm

Yep. And followed detmer.

NYCougz

2:52pm

Wash clears— (in the words of today’s kids)

Das_Countach

2:47pm

He can't throw the ball to the inside on that fade. That is QB 101 and speaks to your good, but not great argument.....

Bonoman

2:37pm

He is a "gamer" though and leaves it all out there. We know that, we also know the other stuff will happen too

Bonoman

2:38pm

Walsh was way better than Retzy

arizonacougarfan

2:44pm

Neither of those guys are a 10th the leader Jake is and didn’t face the competition or scrutiny. I’ll take retzlaff

GoodBetterBestBYU

2:50pm

Feterik seems like a really good comparison.

shoganai

2:56pm

That's pretty accurate I think. He's a pretty good QB, but not elite.

runnincoug

He's got another year too. He improved a lot year 1 to year 2. I'd expect

They clearly aren't featured like they were in the past, but BYU has gradually been getting better receivers....

I agree you don’t need to build around them being featured receivers BUT . . .
