How I feel waking up today

ldssdl

6:46am

BYU has a mediocre coach and OC, slightly above average QB, & solid D & rode an extraordinary amount of luck to a 9-win

fbguru

6:39am

so many key plays that BYU has been making this season that didn't go their way

Riseandshout81

6:36am

A couple of things I’ve had to remind myself this morning

CPAcoug87

6:31am

My concern with ASU is that Kalani teams never get better late in the season.

Yiowa

6:28am

That's an issue with depth more than anything. But yeah, not a great trend.

Shinshin

6:35am

The offense has combined 26 points in the last two games. One of BYU's super powers coming into the last two

Adrielle Board Misanthrope

6:25am

Defense is playing some of its best football right now. The offense isn't.

Shinshin

6:26am

3 TDs in last 26 drives.

Austin Collie says it's because we don't have a red zone script to mix things up

jrifkin48

6:37am

Batty was getting straight up flagrantly mauled all night

oxcoug

6:11am

The refs could have called that one for free since we would have declined it

ryebrye

6:16am

The offsides they didn’t call on 3rd down seemed horrible from the stadium.

dtownCoug

6:19am

Officials missed about 1 zillion calls last night.

russkiejedi

I hope our AD did his job and publicly reprimanded them.

We end up in the NIT.

maYbe

6:26am

Devin Neal was incredible. Best back that we’ve faced all season.

Revolution

5:59am

He averaged 3.7 ypc. He did find the end zone twice, but he did not look incredible

Adrielle

6:19am

We lost this game more than Kansas won it. We should've had 30 points easy.

maYbe

5:55am

At least we are in a conference and still control our season

Blue Heart

5:55am

That was disappointing, but if two plays were different we had a W.

IGlowInTheDark

5:40am

Can’t this count as our quality loss?!?

TheAirForceCoug

Sir. No. BYU doesn’t wear an SEC or B1G on its jersey.

Eventually it was going to happen.

Sadly agree. It was a stupid way for it to happen though. I’d rather lose

BYU Sportz Fan

At least it wasn't to Utah

Didn’t have to be that way against that team

Made me so furious. Indefensible.

TheAirForceCoug

Since it was Robinson, we can ALL look at that find solace when we say stuff JUST HAPPENS sometimes.

SinkingQuffa

6:22am

Actually a super heads up play and just bad luck

cougfanz

We have a chance at the conference championship game in each of the next 2 weeks

marylandcouger

4:03am

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

NorthernCougifornia

3:19am

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

Forzaitalia

3:05am

We actually scored 95.

Soy Celeste

5:44am

A-Rod is not the answer!

mgdhunter

Didn't have to be cute. Run the ball 50+ times and we win.

Early on, our defense won our games…

On the INT - we ran that exact play on the 2 point conversion against Utah with

RalphWiggam

2:46am

I wish our OC was as skilled and creative at calling the "right" play as our DC

BYUJoJo

2:35am

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

BiggDogg

2:49am

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

westsidecoug

2:12am

Does anyone think we are going to win in Tempe? We are going to have to score 27

Tuskaloosa Cougar

2:28am

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

Creaturecow

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

Tuskaloosa Cougar

Tuskaloosa Cougar

BiggDogg

Honestly, I don't think we stand a chance if we get Colorado in the CCG.

Creaturecow

The utes still suck! Tough loss but Go Cougs!!

both Roberts and Jake said they weren't focused in practice this week & JR also

braddahmike

Excited for Kalani on JRE and Theo Vonn

BaseCoug

2:09am

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

jigidajrit

2:09am

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

BaseCoug

2:11am

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

Adam_Pontipee

2:36am

Pride imo

BaseCoug

2:47am

This seems like post-loss talk. If they had pulled off the win, they never would

BYU Sportz Fan

We will have some good seasons under Kalani, but we will never have a special season under him...

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

MarylandFan

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

Huge Manatee

1:48am

Yep, this season isn't the right one to curse our luck.

russkiejedi

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

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

Gustav

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

Blue Ghost

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

franklyvulgar

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

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

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

idcougarfan

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?

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

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

CalGTR

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

Countcougula

True, they barely beat Kansas at home.

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

NWCoug

Neither is BYU apparently

asdf1986

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

mindzeYe

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

Crazy Joe Davola
