An INT on an errant throw is not a coaching flaw in this circumstance. A
freak punt bounce which a player didn't see and we didn't recover practically on the goal line is not coaching. We practically gave them a 10-14 pt advantage.

Interception doesn't happen and we score 3 or 7. Punt bounce doesn't happen and they score only 10. 10 for the whole game. Two massive player mistakes by themselves change the game from a win at BYU 27 or 24 over a Kansas 10, to a loss. Even no interception and just a field goal likely mean we are looking at 19-17 BYU. Not trying to shame players on their being imperfect just being realistic. Mistakes were made by everyone on the BYU side but look all over college football every week. Top teams are losing or squeaking out wins all the time. Oregon barely squeaked out a victory and hardly scored any points.

Calm down about the coaches for one game people. Come back and gripe when they lose every other some future season. Show a little loyalty in a 9-1 season (thus far) where we beat Utah. Based on expectations we are spending house money right now. Also, I love this team but we are not world beaters and never have been. Doesn't mean they can't win and doesn't mean they wont, just that if we remove blue tinted shades we could admit that they have been solid but flawed. That's ok, its still fun and we are still having an incredible year.

Super bummed out by the way, in case I sound zen and happy. I'm not.
