Blog: BYU Football Tumbles In AP Top 25 Rankings After Loss To Kansas View

[KSL Sports] Mitch Harper

1:50pm

Goodman has us at 25

provoprodigy

1:49pm

One CBer’s daughter filmed him watching the game

carlstud

1:49pm

BYU has already overachieved: very good D & spec teams & an average B12 offense.

Forzaitalia

1:49pm

Question about the Kansas Punt that went off the helmet

lemonademan

1:47pm

Kick-catch interference doesn’t apply. There was no attempt at a catch.

Samsonite

1:48pm

Yeah. It'd be just like the ball going off a blocker engaged with a gunner on a normal punt.

foofcoug

1:49pm

Pitt playing like BYU, just threw a pick in the end zone after having a long

JohnnyC

1:47pm

Oh, yeah! Thanks. I have the Vikes on my FF team!

jaba166

1:50pm

Holmoe was wearing the royal version of that awesome retro Nike jacket last

rivercitycoug

1:47pm

I think Kansas will help us out next week against CU

Cougs4Lfe

1:46pm

Saturday should be just like this...

IGlowInTheDark

1:46pm

How would you rank Texas A&M, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, and Ole Miss? All are 8-2.

TCuz Coastal Elite

1:44pm

The bigger the conference the smaller the % of teams you play in conference, the

Turn and Cough

1:47pm

Ok, thanks for that. How would you rank them?

TCuz

1:50pm

In case you are unfamiliar with the devils, they are good

rocklincoug

1:42pm

Jeudy is more entertaining

Carnac

1:45pm

I think you mean Jeanty, and in that case I agree completely

Jericho

1:47pm

These are my favorite posts on CB. I love CB’ers who don’t understand sarcasm

Mr. Rumsfield

1:42pm

The problem with sarcasm on CB is that most of us don't know each other

MaximusMeridius

1:45pm

I mean, this linked post is about the most obviously sarcastic post I’ve ever

Mr. Rumsfield

1:47pm

I thought Jake learned from the pick 6 against Oklahoma last year.

foofcoug

1:47pm

I’m calling it

Idahoancoug91

1:38pm

Issue is ASU plays with a chip on it’s shoulders too

I'mBatman

1:43pm

I agree. Offenses got to step up. Jake probably won’t have any more interviews.

Idahoancoug91

1:45pm

I have no clue what the team is feeling or what leadership coaches/ players are demonstrating, but my hope (as a fan)

Preppy All-American

1:38pm

We clinch on Saturday with a win@ASU and a Utah win over ISU.

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

1:36pm

Never Utah.

crazY

1:37pm

Wrong answer. You cheer for the best outcome for your team first, always.

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

1:38pm

Not wrong answer, we can beat Houston. I do t want Utah in a bowl

DreamerCoug

1:39pm

We COULD lose to them though. I'd rather take the sure bet.

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

1:40pm

Meh. We win out, we’re in anyway. Never cheer for Utah.

CommodoreCoug

1:37pm

RE: Meh. We win out, we’re in anyway. Never cheer for Utah.

rocklincoug

1:38pm

Houston could beat us. There is no sure thing.

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

1:39pm

If we can’t beat Houston at home with a CCG berth on the line

CommodoreCoug

1:41pm

Then you go right ahead and root for them by yourself.

rivercitycoug

1:42pm

Utah can’t beat anyone right now. Forget it.

Rocketman

1:37pm

I thought they almost beat us?

Plantagenet

1:40pm

Couldn't even beat BYU with how poorly their O is playing right now

fattycoug

1:41pm

I’m rooting for Utah to lose by 50.

rivercitycoug

1:40pm

Then that means you hate Utah more than you love BYU

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

1:42pm

No it doesn’t. BYU controls their own destiny with wins.

rivercitycoug

1:48pm

Id rather have to go into the game against Houston needing a win

cougaman

1:41pm

A few short thoughts from me.

BlueVU

1:34pm

KS had to dump Tuiaki to make the defense better. I think he will have to do

Hinta

1:41pm

Kalani isn't going to fire the OC of a team that is currently 9-1 and got

Zombre

1:50pm

Like it or not. ARod won't be forced out this year

fattycoug

1:43pm

Coaches gotta tell batty to quit flopping.. it’s honestly embarrassing.

GhostRider

1:32pm

So if we lose to ASU we can still get in if K St beats ISU and AZ beats ASU.

YOHONOMOTO

1:32pm

And we beat Houston, yes. But let’s just win out.

CougarTwins

1:32pm

We would also need Colorado to lose a game

McMax

1:33pm

No, we would be playing Colorado in that instance.

My2cents

1:34pm

Or we need Kansas to beat CU. But either way K St has to beat ISU.

YOHONOMOTO

1:35pm

I think this is our most likely scenario. Kansas beats CU and K St beats ISU.

YOHONOMOTO

1:36pm

I hope no one is planning to lose to Arizona State.

Plantagenet

1:41pm

We just crapped the bed against Kansas. Anything is possible.

YOHONOMOTO

1:45pm

I haven't seen much discussion about the obvious offensive PI...

lbmango

1:31pm

Absofrigginlutely, that was blatant offensive PI!

jaba166

1:32pm

That was a shockingly bad non-call - really bad

LV Mike

1:38pm

Yes, it couldn't have been more obvious had it slapped the ref on both cheeks,

jaba166

1:45pm

Didn’t see INT Taysom threw jn 1st half... Bad throw? Tipped ball? Overthrow?

BYUfan92

1:30pm

Threw into double coverage

NYCougz

1:31pm

And was a deeper throw than I would recommend for him

goblin

1:31pm

Yep - trick play that didn’t trick anyone

NYCougz

1:32pm

Wasn’t a trick play. Pretty standard play action pass out of the shotgun

Duke Silver

1:42pm

You are right

NYCougz

1:43pm

Found the video on X. Threw into triple coverage

MaximusMeridius

1:39pm

My favorite thing is hearing SEC coaches talk about how they get persecuted by

Unibro

1:30pm

Not one of my favorite things.

CAPX

1:34pm

I was wondering after the huge win over Utah if it would linger on and keep the

Hinta

1:29pm

How much focus does it require the offense to score a measly 18 points??

eyebleedblu

1:31pm

Kansas is good--this is the Big 12.

Plantagenet

1:43pm

Video of Taysom TD (language warning in comments since it’s Twitter)

BYUfan92

1:28pm

Detroit needs to bench key starters before they get hurt. This is overkill

Belboz

1:27pm

Agreed.

NYCougz

1:31pm

I hope they win the Superbowl...likeable coach, likeable team

MaximusMeridius

1:43pm

Formula for feeling better: Reconstruct how crap you'd feel if BYU had lost

oxcoug

1:27pm

Yeah I'll take this loss over the Utah loss any day

MaximusMeridius

1:29pm

BYU was outplayed by Utah and should have lost

rocklincoug

1:30pm

One does not simply stop Taysom Hill

AZPTCOUG

1:26pm

RE: One does not simply stop Taysom Hill

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

1:28pm

" One does not simply walk into the "corridor" and take the ball from TH!"

jaba166

1:40pm

So what are the scenarios to make the CCG?

dmatt

1:26pm

Win out

Durden

1:26pm

I'm curious about this too. If we lose to ASU, there's a tie w/ 2-loss teams...

runnincoug

1:27pm

If we lose to ASU, we need KU to beat Colorado and KSU to beat ISU

McMax

1:28pm

Depends on how if ISU can beat KSU in two weeks. Double effect to BYU as KSU’s

BYUHgrad

1:28pm

Basically win out. Last night was the one game buffer we had since ASU beat

BYUHgrad

1:28pm

Taysom is a beast

Adwight

1:25pm

Another Taysom TD!

MaximusMeridius

1:25pm

Taysom - nice TD run on 4th and 1.

BYUfan92

1:25pm

BYU doesn’t spike in the obvious situation last week, and it cost them a FG

cougaman

1:24pm

Seriously.. need to run a play off the first down with that much time left

GhostRider

1:34pm

I don’t know of someone needs to make a chart, or what. But so many teams don’t

cougaman

1:39pm

That was unforgivable and off-the-charts stupidity.

acadian8

1:37pm

ASU has made one field goal in their past six games. That is how BYU beats them.

DC15

1:23pm

Putting all of the blame on one factor for the loss implies nothing else was

MaximusMeridius

1:21pm

Ok coaching and the offense. The D was not perfect but did enough to win and the

Blew

1:23pm

Defense was generally great. Except that first drive they were awful

MaximusMeridius

1:26pm

We didn't know.

oxcoug

1:20pm

Come on Bears!!

FabLabCougar

1:20pm

We are really struggling running in between the tackles which is makes it tough for the rest of the time… we need to

crm48 Pretty...Pretty...Pretty Good

1:18pm

Moa did fine. Can’t figure out why we only ran him once.

TwinsRight

1:20pm

Yes. North south runner

kirkko

^^^This^^^

valcorger

1:24pm

Exactly

Coug98

1:24pm

That was largely on those last drives when defense was playing coverage since byu had to score… we have not been running

crm48

1:28pm

We are averaging 4.8 ypc which is very respectable

I'mBatman

1:27pm

Starting to come to that conclusion, too regarding ARod. But to say we aren’t

BYUHgrad

1:37pm

They don't even try to run between the tackles near the goal line. So soft.

Still Blue

1:38pm

Two stats that summarize the game.

LateToTheGame

1:17pm

Or maybe not overthrow deep routes and underthrow fades

Big12Yfan

1:20pm

Retzlaff seemed off.

Plantagenet

1:46pm

We stopped running trick plays. Maybe that’s it.

Boring

1:23pm

This. ☝🏻 I was thinking the same thing. Needed a spark to loosen things up.

Idahoancoug91

1:26pm

The O is playing tight, nervous, scared. And Jake has been very inaccurate

Still Blue

1:32pm

Playing with perfection weighing on you will do that to you.

Idahoancoug91

1:42pm

Stay task oriented and don't get distracted by ego considerations like hype,

Plantagenet

1:48pm

Our defense played like a Top 5-10 team. Not many defenses in the Country would

Big reason for that is we limited their possessions by draining clock

JoeExotic

Any early idea of how many fans we’ll have in Tempe?

Hopefully this is the wake up call the offense needed. We’ll see how they respond on Saturday.

Gonna take a long time for me to forgive that outrageous corner-fade call. Cost

PGVikingDad

1:08pm

And very poorly executed.

Brigham

1:10pm

Like epically

Big12Yfan

1:11pm

Even spiking the ball there, they were scrambling like

novacoug1

1:10pm

Yes, we seemed panicked. We had time and time-outs, yet spiked the ball wasting

Brigham

1:11pm

That spike nearly killed me, too. Such incompetence, and a Twilight Zone repeat

PGVikingDad

1:11pm

I could forgive it if we go on a 6 game win streak now. I'll eat a beefy 5 layer burrito with my face if we do it.

foofcoug

1:11pm

You mean 7 game? I doubt we get a bye now.

AZPTCOUG

1:11pm

That'd be a bonus. I'm fine losing in the Finals. Don't want to be too greedy.

foofcoug

1:13pm

You think winning the BigXII CCG won’t get us the four seed? BSU would not get

BYUHgrad

1:24pm

Maybe if Boise is undefeated with only loss to #1 undefeated Oregon.

AZPTCOUG

1:27pm

I still highly doubt the committee will look at BSU that way. PTSD CB does not

Eat THE beefy 5-layer burrito, and I'll be impressed.

Has it been confirmed if Jake changed Aron’s call to the fade?

Traveshamockery

1:12pm

Oh I rage cussed when it happened and I'm still really ticked off about it

Coug

1:13pm

I was yelling at the TV the moment I recognized a pass play developing. Just the

PGVikingDad

1:15pm

Same. My son typically is quiet during the game and he was really ticked also

Coug

1:24pm

W have too many good players to throw a high risk play to a lowly used player

1:14pm

This is one of the most bizarre sports fan cliches, to me. Do people really feel

shoganai

1:16pm

Kalani talked about this early on in the year, after Jake had some interception

Yup, I have to agree. 1st and goal at the 5, and we've got 40 seconds and

jaba166

Yeah, LJ was over 7 YPC in 1H and we don’t run from the 5, with 2 timeouts. dumb

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

They don’t deserve it at all. college Football is still broken.

OmahaThunderCoug

1:08pm

The committee is laughing at your feelings

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

1:10pm

Of course they are. I can picture them now.

OmahaThunderCoug

1:17pm

They are #6, #4, and #8 in Sagarin, FPI, and SP+ respectively. Sounds like the #6 team to me.

What a block in the Bears game. Wow.

No touching All-American

I don't believe you. You'd still be upset if Kansas had looked really good.

shoganai

1:05pm

No, that would be one of those losses that CB is totally fine with.

Their last 3 games they beat 2 ranked teams and barely lost to a ranked KSU. The

KS surprised me tonight on the post game. Actually had more than coach speak.

CB is so laughable and predictable after a game like last night

Ugh. The media is bring insanely disrespectful towards BYU.

Kalani is complaining about ARod running the clock at the end, and said you...
