BYU’s paths to the championship game.

Haka

11:50pm

5, 7, 9, 14, 15, 16, 19 all lost today.

It's A Bowling Ball

11:46pm

What a day for us to lose....

Penske Material

We'd have jumped at least 3 spots

Crazy day for the sec. Bama getting housed and ole miss losing.

NYCougz

If Tennessee loses to Vanderbilt & Texas beats A&M, SEC is in big trouble...

They’ll still have 5 teams in which is a jone

Santa Clara pushed 1 seed UNC to limit in second round but UNC wins 1-0 on very

It's actually a pretty solid performance for the Big 12.

On the last BYU possession in the last two games the team was in position to win

Seems like the big moments have often been too big for him

Man, he has delivered several big games this year. Everyone needs to step up

byusage

11:43pm

The story is cool and everyone wants him to be the guy. But he isn’t good enough to be a BYU starting quarterback

BYU Tar Heel

I dunno he’s been good at times in the clutch I’d point to maybe his overall

franklyvulgar

11:44pm

I think I'd rather have JR with another year of experience than taking a chance on a young QB. Unless that QB is the

Colorado

11:46pm

Seems like an over generalization to say JR can't get it done in big games.

Bartimaeus

11:46pm

I have a million thoughts… But man am I proud to be a BYU fan and our culture.

cougarmikey

11:41pm

Remember that it literally took Tuiaki resigning because he couldn't deal with

For old time's sake

Can someone that knows the Big 12 tiebreaker explain why Iowa State is in over

Gentleman Stan

11:35pm

Someone mentioned the record of their conf opponents ?

Simple we will have beat and lost to the same teams, it goes to strength of

BYUFootballisBack

11:36pm

It’s crazy to think that there is a path for Kansas to get into the playoff at 7-6 as Big 12 Champion

2FarGone No One of Consequence

11:34pm

Yep would take a loss from CU ISU and ASU and Kansas beating baylor

BYUFootballisBack

11:35pm

If Baylor won under those conditions do they get in ?

franklyvulgar

11:36pm

Yes, if those 3 lose and Baylor beats Kansas we could play Baylor in the ccg

BYUFootballisBack

11:37pm

I didn't mess around with other games outside those 4 so there could be some

BYUFootballisBack

11:38pm

Would a 7-6 Kansas be one of the top 5 ranked conference champions?

hydro

11:38pm

This. People just assume the new playoff format guarantees the P4 champs a spot.

bluesloth

11:40pm

Not likely. Army for starters if they win the AAC.

WizeGuise

11:40pm

Kansas would not make the playoff. Have to be fifth highest ranked conference

WizeGuise

11:39pm

I don’t think that’s right. Kansas has 4 losses in conf. There will definitely b

Rexy Coug

It should be Kansas State not Kansas

POLL: How superstitious are you?

RJCOD

11:28pm

I guess I’ll go first. I have lucky shoes.

RJCOD

11:30pm

I HAD lucky shoes.

foofcoug

11:32pm

My lucky shoes haven’t been very lucky lately.

RJCOD

11:39pm

I have worn the same t-shirt for every game this year. Bought it from Royal Army walking into the first home game.

Busting Coveys

11:31pm

Just a little stitious

Buffalo

11:32pm

I take the blame for this loss. I didn’t watch all of the pregame, and used a

NorthernCougifornia

11:34pm

Do better!!

RJCOD

11:41pm

I also had friends buy tickets to the Big 12 CCG & BYU hasn’t won since.

RJCOD

11:40pm

The two teams that didnt want to come to B12 both causing the biggest trouble

ABCoug

11:25pm

From the ESPN article on the game:

garyfan

11:24pm

They control their own destiny, BYU doesn’t

cougaman

11:26pm

Not to mention that ASU doesn’t need any help while BYU does.

garyfan

11:27pm

That’s, uh, exactly what he said.

XORCoug

11:32pm

In in the original post it stated that

NYCougz

11:36pm

Ahhh…

XORCoug

11:39pm

BYU doesn't have a greater than 50% chance

Carnac

11:26pm

Yes they do, well depending on updated game probabilities

BYUFootballisBack

11:27pm

Here's the breakdown, but the odds will change after today's games so could drop

BYUFootballisBack

11:30pm

He said greater than 50% to make the playoffs

Carnac

11:32pm

My bad, I've blocked playoffs from my brain all I'm thinking is CCG 😅

BYUFootballisBack

11:34pm

You’re right. I misspoke on that. More like 25% ish odds for playoff. Still not

garyfan

11:35pm

Close to 50% on straight up 50% finishes next week above 50% if considering odds

ABCoug

RE: BYU doesn't have a greater than 50% chance

cougfanblue

11:30pm

RE: BYU doesn't have a greater than 50% chance

garyfan

11:30pm

Isn’t it beat Houston & then KState beats Iowa St & BYU has tie breaker vs CU?

Das_Countach

11:30pm

That or ASU loses and we play ISU, or both lose and we play Colorado, if all 3

BYUFootballisBack

11:33pm

…crazy, but I think the most likely scenario is KSU beats Iowa St- I feel good

Das_Countach

11:36pm

I think KSU "should" win but who knows in this conference

BYUFootballisBack

11:39pm

Yes because k state beat co

franklyvulgar

11:34pm

Good let them think that and then get stomped

franklyvulgar

11:31pm

They key play was the onside kick. Dodge that and it's a different game.

dYrtbYkerYder

11:23pm

ASU coach said they weren’t trying to hit BYU player.

RJCOD

11:24pm

I don’t believe anything he says

franklyvulgar

11:25pm

2 weeks in a row we were super dumb on a kick or punt and it resulted in a fumbl

icecougar

11:29pm

He said the exact opposite actually.

rad dawg

11:30pm

Yep, that’s what I heard.

XORCoug

11:34pm

Ok. I guess I heard they just wanted to squib kick it

RJCOD

11:37pm

He said they were going to squib so might as well try to hit a player

dtownCoug

11:46pm

Taking a full half to score 3 points was the difference.

foofcoug

11:24pm

Taking 3 quarters to force a punt was too

puntersarepeople

11:26pm

Difference is most folks were fully expecting BYU to have to score a lot to keep

foofcoug

11:28pm

You expected our D to get dominated? I didn’t.

NYCougz

11:35pm

28 points is dominated? Dudes on byusn were expecting the O to need to score 30

foofcoug

11:37pm

21 points in a half and a 7 minute drive to start the half where they dropped a

NYCougz

11:40pm

3 points in 1 half. Our O struggled hard today - just like the last 2 games

foofcoug

11:41pm

Yep it did. It’s hard to score without the ball but yes.

NYCougz

11:43pm

Offense took 4 drives to score 3 points in the first half. They had the ball.

foofcoug

11:46pm

Yep. And asu scored touchdowns on three of their first four drives and we

NYCougz

11:50pm

I guess the good news is byu has been in every game that’s pretty crazy

franklyvulgar

11:25pm

Kinda like the pooch to helmet. But would be nice to score TDs in the first half

BleedingBlue01

11:25pm

At a minimum.

foofcoug

11:26pm

Or give up less than 21 points

NYCougz

11:35pm

Defense carried the team the last 2 games. It was time for the O to show up.

foofcoug

11:38pm

Got it. I forgot whose turn it was.

NYCougz

11:41pm

Offense has to show up at least once in 3 games.

foofcoug

11:42pm

Right so offense owes the defense 3 games now? I hope we are tracking this.

NYCougz

11:44pm

Don't worry, I am. So each time a moron tries to blame the D for a loss when the

foofcoug

11:48pm

Key play was ASU running it down our throat. But onside kick was my #3. Big

johnnybyu

11:29pm

When is the last time we've had a dominant D-Tackle? Khyris Tonga?

UnhealthyAddiction

11:18pm

We knew the Dline was gonna be an issue before the season started.

karatekid

11:21pm

Three or four years in a row though...

UnhealthyAddiction

11:23pm

When our starting DT transferred to Arkansas, it hurt.

Dark Forest Green

11:26pm

He was not on track to start. Not close

puntersarepeople

11:27pm

Does he even play? Thought he was minimal role player. Lost track.

coug10278

11:27pm

Not much. Obviously went for the money

Dark Forest Green

11:30pm

Kalani vs asu coach 3 rounds cage match who you got

franklyvulgar

11:17pm

I’d have to watch the tape first

LaVellIfIKnow

11:18pm

Kalani. Little dude has passion and intensity, but he’d burn himself out quickly

gwalker

11:18pm

Kalani by a million.

CougsBeatU

11:18pm

Kalani would (pre Buster) Tyson him.

coug10278

11:18pm

Kalani is one big dude

ABCoug

11:21pm

KS would win…but he might not start fighting until midway 3rd round

Borg

11:25pm

He'd be toast by the 3rd. Better put him down early

Plato

11:32pm

I think you missed the irony of KS and BYU slow starts

Borg

11:37pm

Last time BYU had a defensive player that struck fear into opponents?

BleedingBlue01

11:15pm

That is the one that immediately comes to mind. Or Dirty Dan

TNT

11:17pm

Or Fred Warner

Hawk Talons

11:18pm

Daniel Sorenson. That dude could hit!

pigfoot

11:19pm

If you were a kick returner watch out

TNT

11:19pm

Mo Langi.

Shore10

11:21pm

2012 but offense struggled with better teams

coug10278

11:29pm

Takitaki in 2018 was our last big star player

puntersarepeople

11:37pm

What would you have felt better about? Needing a TD for the win or needing a FG

foofcoug

11:14pm

All the 2-pt tries made sense in context. Hindsight is 20-20

arcawley

11:15pm

You almost never go for 2 before the 4th quarter. Should not have done it

johnnybyu

11:15pm

Making it a 10 point is valuable and NFL teams do it all the time

arcawley

11:18pm

Rarely in the 3rd q. We could have gone for it on out next td

johnnybyu

11:19pm

Analytics don’t agree. Better to do it sooner so you know where you stand

arcawley

11:21pm

It wasn't the first half... It was 21-3 at half, no first half tds

BYUFootballisBack

11:21pm

And we went for 2 in the 3rd quarter

johnnybyu

11:22pm

Well now you edited your message

BYUFootballisBack

11:25pm

We went for 2 in the third quarter. There is no arguing that. My point is don’t

johnnybyu

11:35pm

Hindsight could be brought up with going for it on 4th as well

foofcoug

11:23pm

I trust Ferrin more than Jake so I guess that’s my answer

LaVellIfIKnow

11:15pm

Didn't matter because of the interception

ochobeeguy

11:15pm

Not true we got 2 pts, if kicked all xps we would have got 3 pts, down 4 not 3

BYUFootballisBack

11:19pm

Can't just add the two missed 2 points, you also have to subtract the 1 success

BYUFootballisBack

11:22pm

<< Deleted >>

foofcoug

11:22pm

Did the B12 decide no penalty because of the fit Harlan threw earlier?

ochobeeguy

11:13pm

I have no gripe with initial fans storming. After that fell all over themselves

coug10278

11:15pm

The bigger issue was not clearing the field and allowing the coach to encourage

ABCoug

11:16pm

Should have cleared the whole field.

Dark Forest Green

11:33pm

i predict much yelling at the tv before the BYU game next saturday. maybe

franklyvulgar

Anyone know what time kickoff is for KSU vs ISU?

I want a rematch. Fans treated us great. End of game was chaos and created most

johnnybyu

11:09pm

Why is the official play-by-play saying that the last pass to Roberts is incomplete?

Anacondas All-American

11:05pm

they were as done as we were at that point 🙂

franklyvulgar

11:06pm

Because the ref on the field incorrectly ruled it incomplete.

CPAcoug87

11:07pm

Roberts says he was still on top of an ASU player when fans rushed on again.

ochobeeguy

11:17pm

So ASU is trying to be a worse program than utah and wyoming ?

acougfan

11:05pm

So if for some reason we don’t make playoff via CCG, take solace in the fact

Forbidden Fruit

11:04pm

Great we get to share bigger payouts with 15 other teams

Kolobrdm

11:05pm

And we receive Part of their payout too

Blue Heart

11:09pm

I take solace in that we beat the stinky utes- Go Cougs!

acougfan

11:06pm

Payouts don't really matter in conference money goes to conference

cougarfann888

11:06pm

Ok. Then take solace our bowl game is not head-to-head with the As the world

Forbidden Fruit

Who cares about payout? TNT isn't watching these games because of pay
