POLL: BYU football is really 3 seasons in one separated by bye weeks. At 2024 beginning which part would you say is toughest?

OU Cougar

Jay Hill will be a HeadCoach in 2025. The question is where. How do we keep him?

Avecope

6:19pm

half the board wanted Hill fired 9 months ago... Now you guys think BYU can't afford to keep him in Provo.

Please link a post with someone calling for Hill's job

Ok. Let me rephrase. Find me a non sarcastic post.

byujacob

Umm, that isn’t true. Half the board did not want him fired.

UNLVcougar

Not difficult to dispute this as untrue.

Nobody wanted Hill fired

Are you being sarcastic? After us, their schedule seems to be as light as

Kstate 2-0, UofU 4-0, TT 4-1, Y 5-0, CU 4-1 (now). Not sarcastic.

I’d go with healthy guys until we don’t have any healthy guys

That’s awesome we got 5-6 guys that have seen action and are playable!!

HeyU

Should be LJ & Moa with the other dudes sprinkled in

Jayden Daniels.

So, how good is our back up center?

Dr MoBYU Intervention Needed

Our depth is amazing. Only concern is getting the team to gel. Lots of alphas

Stucoug83

Good. He played 99% of the game.

indocoug

How come some people are saying that we collapsed because Pay went out?

Plantagenet

6:02pm

They are wrong

2FarGone

6:05pm

Pass protection didn't drop much if at all but Run O got significantly worse

coug10278

6:09pm

Partially due to play calls though. It was too predictable in the second half.

Bartimaeus

6:15pm

Lots of low snaps. Definitely not as good as Connor.

AZPTCOUG

6:19pm

I thought the 3rd string guy played. Backup was hurt. No?

fulano

6:14pm

I think that was at a different line position.

Plantagenet

6:19pm

Well, we gave up ZERO sacks

brazilcoug

6:05pm

Jake on the post game said there was not a big difference.

byujdmba

Lots of low snaps which hurt the timing and could lead to bigger problems.
