What do you think would lead to Utah's downfall more?

This year has been the perfect storm for us. It only makes me wonder: are the playoffs even a good thing?

Playoffs are amazing. Only bad thing is how many SEC/B1G teams are looking to

I saw a post last night (or maybe this morning?) about it.

ManicBlue

Geez. Starting to feel bad for the Utes. Can you imagine losing 5 in a row?

momowagon

2:57pm

Umm, plenty of us here on CB were melting down. Luckily our AD and coach

mudpupper

Many were STILL melting down all summer

Socrates Johnson

I think we can all agree that the meltdowns were quite different.

TheNerd

I dunno. People were clamoring for firing Kalani up until this September

RGGeemer

Won’t stop at 5

Utes are in process of having a decade without a win against BYU.

The difference between healthy and unhealthy people/cultures is reselience.

Have we got a "In the booth with Greg and Hans" for the GW FG yet?

HimmerFredette

2:55pm

It's more of an in the booth & coaches box for the last drive

BYU Fan

2:57pm

This is such a dumb argument by ESPN/Experts. Close wins vs blowout wins.

Cougar TD

2:55pm

If we could get a blowout this week randomly that would be nice though.

Heath Squashwell

2:57pm

I would absolutely love that, but I will always take the win.

Cougar TD

BYU gets some disrespect before each game...and a bit after wins too. It will take years of winning in B12 as well as

Preppy All-American

We still get disrespect for our National Title, just part of being BYU.

Ryan Smith had Dwayne Wade & Tony Finau @ BYU today

VinnyBYU

2:39pm

What brand of shoes is Smith wearing?

Cougs1

2:46pm

No idea but even weirder, what brand of slippers is D Wade wearing?? Zoom in on those bad boys.

Icecat

2:49pm

Looks like they were molded out of clay by a 7 year old

Cougz19

I believe those are Dwayne Wade's fashion brand

P-Boy Squad

I noticed you spelled Dwyane like a sane person.

shimmy

I thought Tony is a Bootah lover and we should hate everything about him.

JohnnyC

He supports both BYU and Utah

Cougs1

He needs to go on record stating who he cheered for in the most recent game.

The report said the water bottle was "disposable." People are assuming plastic.

DirtyWater

You can watch the video. Looks to be a standard plastic bottle, albeit full of water.

kccougar

SLC has made a rule that any water bottles sold at city events can't be plastic.

I saw people at the game with plastic water bottles, so that isn't the case.

Plastic is closer to a water balloon. Metal is worse.

DirtyWater

2:45pm

Devil's advocate: Law enforcement likes to use big words in reports. Why use 'plastic' when 'disposable' sounds smarter?

I think the Stanely cups are disposable. I think it was one of those. Steel missile headed to our coaches.

He’s their only scholarship QB left. Then it’s one walkon then nobody. Also double check your math

byuTX

They do have that receiver who threw a pass against us.

I think Colorado wins big. This has all the makings of a complete blowout.

Yep - Colorado by 30+ is more likely than Colorado by 10 or less
