So BYU has played two P4 seasons. Utah has played one. How’s it going so far?

They were 1 holding call away from avoiding a 7 game losing streak. So pretty good.

No. Lots of bets aren’t near 50/50 odds. Even the ones that in theory are, like O/U and games against the spread

On the broadcast they said that Jake was super beat up for the Kansas and ASU

Windward_Coug

10:08am

I didn’t know it at the time.

DirtyWater

10:09am

It was rumored. And it was nice for GB to come in and show why playing him may have been a bad idea.

shimmy

10:09am

Not well known, but he got injured in the Utah game

2FarGone

10:09am

He was clearly hesitant to run

I'mBatman

10:11am

To the coaches yes...to the fan base, no

Heinz57

10:14am

That's on the coaches. If the starter isn't good to go, the backup

SV72 Sale

10:19am

And maybe the backup doesn't lose 2 games. And the starter is back for the CFP

88Coug

10:23am

Then you run the ball or shorten your passing routes

Heinz57

10:30am

Maybe the backup wasn’t ready/good either

2FarGone

10:30am

If coaches felt Retz gave us the best chance playing injured it is what it is.

johnnybyu

10:29am

You could tell. He couldn’t/didn’t run, which he’s always used well.

Boring

10:20am

At Utah as well, he was hesitant to run in all of those games

A couple of things we need to give Retzlaff more credit for…

DizzyDean

I like the take but no way I take Jake over Sanders or Dart.

ordinary tri guy

10:07am

I like Sanders. My remarks weren’t directed at him.

DizzyDean

10:11am

Good runner, tough/gritty, and a good leader. I think he gets pretty good credit for that.

shimmy

10:09am

While he had more turnovers than I would have liked, I do think he

paulb

10:11am

As far as QB play he is slightly above average P4. As far as leadership,

ybecausethatswhy

I'm hoping he'll work with Beck in the off season to improve his mechanics and accuracy.

SoCalCoug

Didn’t BYU start 1984 unranked?

JohnnyComeLately

yes. Beat 3rd ranked Pitt on the road in game 1 and were ranked in top 10 week 2

fulano

Kinda crazy how so many things had to go right for us that year. Pitt was objectively a really bad team. But that first

Hard truths on Jake

stev All-American

10:03am

Gutted out a couple of tough and improbable wins, and led the team to 11 wins.

SoCalCoug

10:06am

Yes. Absolutely. My point still stands.

stev

10:06am

Careful, any criticism of Jake will get you an eye roll from cougarbob137, aka

jigidajrit

10:06am

It’s wild. Some guys don’t want us to point out obvious truths.

stev

10:07am

It’s more that Jake haters refuse to acknowledge his strengths or his feats

arcawley

10:15am

Both can be true, no?

jigidajrit

10:17am

And still better injured than the backup when healthy

BYUgeezer

10:14am

I’m not comparing him to our great QBs. I’m comparing him to the other 130 FBS QBs this year.

stev

10:23am

So…he’s smack dab in the middle of the country in his 1st full year? Not bad lol

arcawley

10:14am

He is what he is. We knew coming into the year that he has obvious deficiencies

I don’t really know or care. Give G5 access. Win your conference or be #2 in

Conferences aren't even close to equal. SEC...B1G..B12......ACC.....................................AAC..............MWC

This is where the problem starts. Making these not geographical conferences is

MustacheMan

10:11am

Greenrake dupe?

NGB

10:01am

Nope. Don’t want some committee favoring some ‘name’ team early season

Borg

10:04am

Is it fair for a G5 team with a one-off decent team to play NO ONE and get in? Why do they get an easy path?

Crazy Joe Davola

10:06am

I will never understand why you think a 7-5 MAC champ should get a chance over an 11-1 P4 team just because they beat

RealTaysomHill

10:04am

Then it’s a warm up game for P4. No problem. But they have access and can’t

Borg

10:06am

But we would be leaving out a team that could legitimately be the best team in the country so that a crappy team can

RealTaysomHill

10:11am

I say let every P4 have their top 3 teams, top 2 G5 over all and 2 at large.

Ok. That works too. Get rid of fictitious national rankings

If Parker caught it a yard or two further, yes

Ball has to be caught behind the line
