It was supposed to be a fade. It was thrown directly in the receiver's direction

It was beyond a bad call

Didn’t we throw it to him last week on the 2-pt conversion with the same result?

That's OK. The coaches thought the same thing.

What are the chances the committee keeps us ahead of SMU because of head to head

It's possible. But, BYU did just lose to a 3-6 team at home... not named NIU.

I think BYU, Tennessee, SMU, and Boise St will be 11-14 in some order.
