50 basis points. Wow.

RexIdaCoug

12:01pm

Whoa. I would've bet the farm on 25.

gangbusters

12:02pm

The market was already pricing in the 50 basis points.

RH84025

12:03pm

CME tool said it was 50-50 today

RexIdaCoug

Me too. I’m very surprised.

I noticed yesterday that mortgage rates were down about .5%.

Florwood

12:04pm

No, mortgage rates follow the 10 year note, not the overnight rate

RexIdaCoug

Crystal clear indication that the economy is not doing well.

and that an election is around the corner

PabloSanchezz

Or inflation has cooled enough.

NYCougz

Expecting two more 25 basis point cuts this year as well if I read it right?

SlyCoug

So we are officially in a recession then

We have been in a manufacturing recession for the last 12 months.

I was hoping for some non-basis points. Very disappointed

BYU continues to beat spread by 14 and wins by 7. Suck it, haters.

That alternative spread would make you lots of money.

I don’t gamble but it’s happening. Book it.

ebv

We'll learn how good SMU is this Saturday when TCU plays @ SMU.

Mostlyaccurate

11:29am

Even more crazy is how unimpressed some BYU fans are at BYU beating a P4 team on the road as a 2 score underdog.

mulletino

11:29am

True, I forgot how big of a P4 powerhouse SMU is.

Plato

11:34am

Is that what I said or did I say we beat a P4 team on the road as a 2 score underdog? Stay focused.

mulletino

11:35am

Socrates is doing his best to try to calm Plato down.....with little success.

StarMan

11:40am

You definitely made the implication. Why else would you say P4 team?

Plato

11:46am

Because they’re in a P4 conference. Isn’t that the definition?

mulletino

Did you forget how to read?

Abe Froman

12:08pm

Great win and super fun to be there. Not sure how much it means yet.

That is what I thought last year when BYU got 5 wins 🙂

WJCougar

Yeah, that does still have me worried, but I'm hopeful.

paulb

11:44am

Counterpoint. How we played in all 3 games is taken into account.

Blueto

11:39am

SMU's best RB is out against TCU, so that hurts their chances against TCU

CLCougar

11:40am

Broader view, BYU has significantly outplayed expectations (see spreads) in 3 straight games

kccougar

SMU statically had the best defense we’d see this year

Knee Brace

He needs to hold his mouth right.

Plantagenet

I’m more concerned about the ball ending up in the dirt nowhere near a receiver

Durden

I‘m more concerned with him completing too many passes and winning all the games

A Drew Aitch

The operation of the human body is amazing...not to be oversimplified.

basman

I feel like QBs have been taught for decades to throw of the back foot and rotate through.

My thought was throwing off your back foot meant your momentum was going
