These are old helmets. So are BYU’s in the photo. That’s the ‘22 Arkansas game.

Something is off if a #11 ranked team is not favored against an unranked team.

Vegas and the computers don't seem to like BYU. We had our biggest spread last

BYUheaven

What's not to like? We're 6-1 against the spread.

This will be me after BYU wins on Saturday

Agreed--we're the only ranked team playing on the road against a lower ranked

Tragic. They pulled QPC’s from every MCD’s menu for who knows how long.

The onions specifically, which are different from other menu item onions.

NWCoug

2:56pm

If the SEC called BYU tomorrow and extended an invite, would BYU say yes?

LosAlcoug

2:44pm

BYU would say yes.

Six Foot Seven

2:44pm

But that call is never happening. Not coming from the B1G, either.

Six Foot Seven

2:45pm

Without a doubt. It's about ultimate survival. B12 is way better culturally, but

P-Widdy

2:51pm

It would be as short sided to stay out of the SEC as it was to stay in the WAC

novacoug1

2:45pm

which side would be the short one?

JimmyZ

3:00pm

It would be very BYU to turn it down. "We made a promise to the Big12."

No? Man, have you ever known of a school that identified so strongly

I haven't seen any Big12 tattoos... but I did see a Pac12 one several years ago.

That said, we are a pretty good fit in the B12.

Big difference between being happy and content in a conference, and having

Boskovic will be listed as a junior.

Mostlyaccurate

2:40pm

So does he get to play?

Niiineteeen84

2:41pm

Yeah, as long as he's eligible - I'll take it.

mokelembembe

2:41pm

No idea, I can't even find the media guide he's talking about.

Mostlyaccurate

2:42pm

It might not mean this is an NCAA decision. It could just mean he is interested

cwilke1

2:45pm

The BYU website doesn’t list a year for him

WallaX2

2:59pm

If this is the compliance/eligibility stuff they were working through...

COUGND

2:42pm

DONE

Lifer

2:44pm

If Rising has taught us anything, its that what class you are in doesnt matter.

Longseason

2:46pm

If he's as good as he looks, he's not staying here more than 2 years anyway

robin

2:46pm

Meaning he's eligible? I'll take it.

Mexicougazul

2:47pm

Hopefully that means he is cleared.

BYUheaven

2:51pm

Oh good. Now we have fewer freshmen and are a more veteran team

Joel Tilton

2:54pm

Still seems more than fair - doesn’t make sense a player with that much

ABCoug

2:57pm

I'm going to go out on a limb and say he won't be a dominant role player.

Lifer

3:08pm

If I transfer tickets to somebody (electronically), can they re-transfer them?

cougarmeister

2:37pm

I'm pretty sure they can

goidcougs

2:37pm

Yes. Once you transfer the tix they’re no longer yours.

RockyBalboa

2:38pm

Yes, my question was if there is a limit on # of times tix can be transferred

cougarmeister

2:41pm

Yes. I've done it. Bought some, then plans changed - sold them.

BYU-Ite

2:58pm

Thanks, I called the BYU Ticket Office and they confirmed that.

Definite - - maybe.

lightmann

2:37pm

Historically the worse ranked losers of conference championship games don’t drop very much in the rankings

TCuz

2:38pm

This is a few years old now, but at that point the most a loser to a higher ranked team dropped was 1 spot

TCuz

2:47pm

I think so. The committee would not punish us for playing that 13th game. They

RGGeemer

2:38pm

My thoughts:

Duce

2:49pm

Correct

RGGeemer

2:49pm

Agreed. There are 7 at large spots. For the 2nd Big 12 team to get bumped it

rcbyufan

2:57pm

I don’t think that’s the right way to look at it (at a conference level)

TCuz

3:02pm

That's fine but I do it that way because there are losses baked in. So Ohio St.

rcbyufan

3:15pm

Shocked that your answer isn't "it's a coin flip"

I can see that

TheHop

You may be right, but I just cannot see BYU fans demonstrating the same attitude

gangbusters

2:40pm

We have improved a LOT as a fanbase and it’s way more fun; still can get better

RWaters

2:47pm

We’ve also seen some good examples from some other fanbases as independents

RWaters

2:48pm

I've thought about this. I don't think we were great fans in the past

cougarblue

There are some similarities with our move to the WCC from the MWC for basketball

ChiefBeef

2:30pm

Who’d have thought that in year 2, BYU would be in a position to win the Big 12?

Ungoy

2:23pm

One change I’d like to see is to make the opposing team take the east sideline

SuperTank

2:22pm

Crowton did that and it was quickly changed for some reason

fulano

2:23pm

I wonder if having the team on the east side is better in terms of ticket

Tricky

2:27pm

He only did it for an afternoon game in August against Tulane

Charles Darwin

2:55pm

Visiting team's entrance to the field is on the West side. BYU's is on the East.

Six Foot Seven

2:25pm

Sounds like BYU just needs to build a bigger and better West Side suites/media

Cougar TD

2:27pm

Fan bases on the east side are a little more mellow...not likely

BlueKarma

2:55pm

That Barca goal was a thing of beauty. Pedri -> Yamal -> Raphina so quickly.

BGRTHNUMEGO

I don't think I've ever seen a goal like that. Crazy

Lord Jim

3:07pm

Both Slovis and Bohanon didn't have the best seasons/outcomes they wanted at BYU

CougfromtheSouth

2:15pm

I hope we don't need portal QBs and can simply recruit and develop some talent.

dfudge

2:17pm

Im fine with not starting a system of 1 year "mercenary" QBs every year

BYUFootballisBack

2:17pm

Love that Slovis and Bohanon came, but rather it be the exception not the plan

BYUFootballisBack

2:18pm

OTOH Retz is essentially (I know, JC transfer) a positive portal QB outcome

Unibro

2:17pm

I think what it should tell us is that we do better with a QB that has had time

NOCAL_YFAN

2:18pm

Will happily take any talented freshman/sophomore transfers, don't want to rely

BYUFootballisBack

2:19pm

I agree

CougfromtheSouth

2:21pm

I think this year has shown that portal QBs are not a great solution. Florida

Stopper6700

2:21pm

Well, Retzlaff was also a transfer, not a BYU HS recruit.

LES experience needs one change: we need the ROC to stop booing the opponent

Cosmos-beard-card

2:00pm

Maybe...I mean, I get that. Doesn't every home team boo the opposing team entry/lineup?

Preppy

2:02pm

It’s part of the fun. IMO it’s done with good nature. We’re nice but not a bunch of DC’s

Dr MoBYU

2:02pm

"Back in the day" students held up newspapers (maybe just for basketball?) to show indifference.

Preppy

2:03pm

That was fun, then the student section leadership determined it was unkind so

ChiCityCoug

2:15pm

Yeah! No horns down t-shirts either! That not classy. That’s not us!

Cougs or die

2:04pm

Nah. That doesn't need to change.

Skeptical Optimist

2:05pm

The opposite. Texas fans proved this week that they can influence bad calls. We need the ROC to throw things at the refs

TCuz

2:05pm

Bring back the the tortillas!

Longseason

2:11pm

Let's be quiet when the opposing team is on offense as well. Let's keep looking

KayakCoug

Maybe we should let the other team score first every game to be nice, too!

astroman

You always boo the villian...it is less about sportsmanship and more about the buildup to the contest.

Cthack1

The thing about booing is it just spurs the opposing teams on. It's not like

byusage

2:18pm

First time watching sports?

CougarGuy84

2:19pm

Nah, booing is just fine. It isn't excessive or rude. It is 100% ok.

2:23pm

A sarcastic/condescending golf clap maybe? 🤷‍♂️
