I’m sorry but re watching Robinson dive for that ball

Just finished the game. This was bad. Jake look like the cold got to him IMO.

No valid excuses for an offense that only scores 13 @home vs a mediocre defense.

Um, our DC is calling horrible 3rd down plays too.

I'm frustrated with the loss, but not nearly as much as I was in Independence.

We aren't getting close to a win in Tempe.

I don’t think so either. Luckily I’ve been wrong before, but it will shock me

Excited for Kalani on JRE and Theo Vonn

BaseCoug

Kalani’s teams have been known to have a lack of discipline

jigidajrit

Eh, I think this was more pride from the players than Kalani this time

I don’t understand how guys playing at this level can’t recognize complacency

We somehow get plays in slower via headsets than giant sideline cards.

I hate, hate, hate, our deliberately slow tempo.

Allstate

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

Blue for Life

1:54am

Jake has audibled into some really bad plays.

Blue Ghost

1:55am

Is “kill” an audible?

NYCougz

1:56am

Did kalani also mention burning a TO to kick a FG?

jigidajrit

I hate to be a Debbie downer but we had to have this one to go to the CCG.

It will be 7 or less. Doesn’t mean we cover though.

No way. It will be ASU between -4 and -5.

RalphWiggam

Anyone else hear that Rose and Cotton Bowl reps were there tonight?

truecougster

If true that's unfortunate.

Cosmo Kramer

ASU vs KState…

BigChief480

No more jet sweeps, no more fades. Let's go Cougs!!!!

RenoCoug

It is better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all.

MarylandFan

1:46am

It’s better than playing meaningless games against umass in nov by far

NYCougz

1:52am

What’s sad is that we really did look like a top 10-15 team against UCF

Internet Explorer

1:45am

The rivalry game is very emotionally draining

Huge Manatee

1:47am

My kids are so sad. I told them the loss is because of a pooch punt on 4th down

Uno Doctoro

1:44am

We have had our own share of luck

Huge Manatee

1:48am

It was fun but now the monkey is off their back. They can now play to win not play to not lose

BYU Grounds Intervention Needed

1:42am

Sure, except the margin for error is smaller now . . .

Gustav

1:43am

One loss and we are out. No way we win the tiebreakers.

Blue Ghost

1:46am

Looser with stakes being higher? Time to call in the sports psychologist

franklyvulgar

1:45am

Except they are playing their toughest opponent so far in 6 days.(SMU was a mess week1)

Crazy Joe Davola

Maybe bit we played them in week 2

Ahh yes

Cheapest tickets for BYU/ASU on Tktmstr, StubHub, or SeatGeek

Knew it wasn't our night when cosmo got hit by a car

Gustav

That was scary for a sec. Glad it wasn't worse.

westsidecoug

Such a winnable game, but what a whole circus of comedic errors. Inexcusable.

Blue Ghost

1:41am

Two straight years where we've given KU 14 points. But hey, there's a 12-team

dYrtbYkerYder

1:41am

“In November, BYU’s offense has only two touchdowns in two games.”…Mitch Harper

idcougarfan

1:38am

I think some of the worst play calls were audibles.

dYrtbYkerYder

1:44am

The awful pass by Jake at end of 1st half & quick kick in 4th Q were massive TOs

Hinta

1:37am

Dude we had 2 massive drives in a row, 2nd one took over 10 minutes as we got 3

Blue for Life

1:58am

Jake throws the fade like he’s trying to finesse it over the defender

cougarblue

1:33am

Unfortunately he had himself another "Oklahoma moment". Tough to live those

Countcougula

Thought the same thing - how many “moments” do you get before addressing?

truecougster

Never should have had the choice to

I'm not sure even why the coaches would have to emphasize it. Every football player over 10 years old knows a fade is

GfB

His side arm release isn’t great for a good fade ball.

bluegaucho

1:36am

How to beat ARod. Defend the option. Blitz like crazy.

idcougarfan

1:30am

Do you prefer a downfield passing game led by Jake Retzlaff? But I agree way too much option.

GfB

1:32am

The last 5 games BYU's offense has scored 41,38,37,22,13. So < 13 vs ASU?

Hinta

1:29am

RE: The last 5 games BYU's offense has scored 41,38,37,22,13. So < 13 vs ASU?

idcougarfan

Actually the offense has scored 34, 38, 37, 15, and 13.

ldssdl

Was this team just fools gold the whole time?

asdf1986

1:28am

Starting to feel that way a little. Still not ready to call it that though after

westsidecoug

1:30am

Yes. We were finally just exposed. The committee is going to drop us 10 places.

WillsPitStop

1:31am

No these are still big 12 teams that out recruit byu immensely, we were a doink

franklyvulgar

Hang in there there trooper

NYCougz

No, just digressing.

rad dawg

Very few teams can go 9-0 in a p4

775coug

1:34am

Defense was great……offense not so much…..we killed them on stat sheet

Chicago Cougar

It depends on what you thought this team was

krindorr

1:55am

Exposed as what? Way ahead of our expected Big12 development curve? Exposed as not being a national title contender yet?

CalGTR

So dramatic. This team is not fools gold

Because we're 9-1

Honestly I wouldn’t mind seeing it. Jake has been awful the last 3 games.

Amen! Very common for let downs following a rivalry game. All national analysts

Frustrating night and bummed that we left points on the field

ASU is not a world beater…

BigChief480

1:24am

True. Neither is Utah or Kansas. And look at us.

The Y's Insider

1:25am

…or Oklahoma State. Our offensive deficiencies have been exposed

Das_Countach

1:28am

The worry is that KU wasn't either. But I like the optimism. Gotta have hope

Countcougula

1:25am

True, they barely beat Kansas at home.

Twin Cities Coug

1:26am

They had a few games without Leavitt and/ or Scattebo. They are back.

NWCoug

1:26am

Neither is BYU apparently

asdf1986

1:29am

Leavitt is a very good QB and their receivers are lightning quick

mindzeYe

1:55am

They are playing great ball at the best time. Whereas, we are regressing dramatically on offense. It's gonna be rough

Crazy Joe Davola

2:03am

They are going to smack BYU around like one of those wacky wavey inflatable arm

Creaturecow

2:44am

I overdressed for the game. I got so overheated that I was miserable

Belboz

Gonna be you tomorrow...

Uno Doctoro

A bit. I think I was colder at the Oklahoma St game

Gunga Galunga

Why did we go slow and limit possessions against an inferior opponent?

I wonder if in the back of their head they thought

Huge Manatee

1:23am

Yep I think so. Kalani addressed it. He said “who cares. Gotta trust the D.”

The Y's Insider

1:24am

Yeah, he wished he had that back. Dumb mistake to worry about time. Just get in

westsidecoug

1:27am

You have to score first, so score whenever you can. Playing clock is dumb.

RenoCoug

1:35am

This is exactly what arod was doing...stupid, amateur coaching. You're down 4. Focus on scoring. That's tie game stuff

Crazy Joe Davola

1:59am

It wasn’t just the players that didn’t bring their “A” game

bluegaucho

1:26am

We're complaining that we ran at the end...but also complaining we threw at the end of half

krindorr

1:26am

It’s the third down run that was killer.

idcougarfan

1:31am

I wouldn’t have minded a throw on first down to end the half. Just not a fade

Julius Pepperwood

1:35am

A throw to a wide-open Marion in the back of the EZ would have been epic

RenoCoug

1:42am

You ever notice in NFL games, they predominantly throw in the RZ when behind?

ldssdl

1:26am

Trying to run to the edge in the red zone is suicide. The defenses is compact

RenoCoug

Losing sucks… I don’t like it

Peterbilt

I'm such a grump. I was annoyed by people who don't take it so hard

Gunga Galunga

PSA: the Papa Johns pizza at the stadium is fraudulent. That isn't Papa Johns.

Countcougula

1:20am

Papa John’s was so much better in general before John got kicked out.

BaseCoug

1:23am

I can’t get over how stupid the end of the half was, again.

dtownCoug

1:20am

With a loss, Greg and the post-game show sign off way earlier it feels like. 😭

westsidecoug

"In the meantime and in between time. . ."

RenoCoug

He was on a long time today with both bball and football.

bluegaucho

Yeah, that also adds to it I'm sure.

westsidecoug

1:25am

Why was our O tempo so slow tonight?? Good grief

DreamerCoug

1:18am

I think it was intentionally slow to limit KS

Huge Manatee

1:19am

It wasn’t a horrible plan. Just the offense didn’t execute in the Redzone

cougaman

1:19am

It’s not a horrible plan if you don’t have faith in your defense.

allaboutthegainz

1:20am

And if you can actually score TDs at the ends of drives.

fredgarvin

It might be why the defense did so well.

The less thinking Arod does moving forward the better off we'll be. Just let the

Because why not drain the clock in the third quarter

BaseCoug

It was intentional. But I cannot figure out why we did it.

allaboutthegainz

1:19am

Definitely intentional. Backfired big time.

The Y's Insider

1:26am

You can run the ball without running the clock that much.

BigHouse Coug

1:36am

We just need to score more

Crowd Factor

1:18am

We scored 3 points in the whole second half. Rx for a loss every game.

Hinta

1:19am

CBS projects us at No. 13. Below BSU and ahead of SMU.

sportsbro

1:18am

ARod must have assumed he had no timeouts and that’s why we passed on 1st-goal

SuperTank

1:17am

And we had been very successful on that drive running the ball.

Hinta

1:20am

13 points at home against the 80th ranked defense in the country.

rivercitycoug

A truly abysmal showing

Bob Vance

I hope they can figure it out this week or we are going to get smashed

Heath Squashwell

Arod doesn’t inspire or motivate. Came out flat 3 of last 4 on offense

What is ASU's defense ranked?

westsidecoug

1:21am

60s or 70s. We had our chances. Didn't execute

Bob Vance

1:26am

Play calls were bad and Jake was 2023 Jake. Missing open WRs and not smart.

dtownCoug

Our offense seems to have regressed. Mostly in the red zone

Gunga Galunga

I like Jake. He's a good QB. He has improved more than I thought he would from

Emmett Fitz-Hume

1:16am

Having more presence and command in the O is definitely possible

Projectoor

He's serviceable. But he isn't accurate and makes too many bad decisions

OKchief

He has regressed the last three games. Reverting to his mean as a mediocre QB.

Kansas thanks ARod for shortening the game in a massive way.

It's painfully obvious they need to mix it up some but Arod is too stubborn
