POLL: If BYU could grab an elite 5 star QB out of the portal

Ummm....the NFL better be careful

Should BYU adopt the Alabama scheduling strategy?

This class is one of the best ever for o-line. It is getting better.

D line though. We have no depth there and most anyone who plays is graduating

JuicyJam

I’m guessing they’ll be aggressive in the transfer portal

I'mBatman

7:53pm

Didn’t we just flip a couple of 4 star OLs?

GoodBetterBestBYU

7:40pm

I believe both are mission bound, however

I'mBatman

Recruiting has to get better everywhere.

You mean the DL. I’m happy with the OL recruiting

He pushed off, full extension of his arms etc..

crimedog

7:35pm

Wasn’t that right in front of the official?

Tuskaloosa Cougar

7:38pm

Probably the most egregious push off iv’e seen in any BYU game this year

Big12Yfan

7:38pm

It was bad. They also had a WR line up in the neutral zone. We had clear LOS, and line judge was even on the line

GoodBetterBestBYU

7:41pm

It didn’t help only having 10 guys out on the field on the TD.

Refs did not want to make calls. How many calls that weren’t false start or

cougaman

They were cold and wanted to get off the field. 6 minute tv timeouts didn’t help.

GoodBetterBestBYU

7:48pm

The positive is, of course, that at least BYU beat Utah

TNT

7:33pm

You can never "take" that away from them.

Plantagenet

7:36pm

Can never what?

TNT

7:38pm

never that away from them

kalifi

7:39pm

Oh. Gotcha. TNT thought he misread it at first

TNT

7:40pm

Can never steal that game which they had already won.

Hawk in the 303

Seriously it makes Kansas loss not sting. It’s a bummer but at least beat Utah.

Jay_L

7:47pm

Well makes it sting not quite as bad. But it still stings

TNT

7:48pm

The defense played well the 2nd half. However….

DizzyDean

If Robinson had just kicked the ball out the back of the EZ it's BYU ball right?

Uno Doctoro

Dang... Thought it'd be a touch back. But yeah, I think you're right.

BlueVU

7:36pm

If he is going to kick it. Which he shouldn't. He could kick it out of bounds.

He did the right thing. Just didn’t do it right. It is a drill DB’s do since pre

USC just flipped a 5 star QB recruit away from Texas A&M...I guess we can speculate whether that impacts Ryder Lyons

CLCougar Intervention Needed

7:32pm

No, because Ryder is a mission first, so they are essentially different classes.

Rise Against

7:33pm

It won’t impact him. Lyons won’t be in a school until 2028.

RootieBoy

7:33pm

Because a separate 5-star WB recruit just decommitted from USC, probably for UGA

garyfan

How do they keep getting recruits while underperforming so terribly?

GoodBetterBestBYU

7:52pm

Watching the game...I think the problem is still the Oline. Retzlaff takes a hit

Blueto

7:25pm

I couldn’t focus on whether Pay looked back to form or if or Jatta did well? Bad angle from our seats.

GoodBetterBestBYU

I noticed Etienne struggled more than usual last night

I'mBatman

7:29pm

They moved Etienne, right? Maybe that had something to do with it.

blueaussie

That has everything to do with it

They announcers said they did but he was playing left tackle.

JuicyJam

I thought I saw him at LT

He rarely rolls out anymore...earlier in the season it was SO effective...I know

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

They ran him up the middle on called QB runs where he got pounded...roll him

To my casual eyes, the O line seemed to absolutely take a step backward against

Their D is not very good either

Losing a starting tackle can do that.
