The lack of tempo and speed with this offense is the biggest problem

Don’t get it. All my Utah fam friends were so happy at church today.

Good point. If we aren’t good enough to win those then we wouldn’t be good

Watching the replay of 4th and 6... It's really hard not to be mad at Pay

Huge Manatee

11:27am

Retzlaff said the playcall was perfect and would have been a TD 😔

cruiserhead

11:28am

Easy for him to say before he has to make the throw

cougaman

11:29am

If the defensive alignment was ideal for it is probably what he meant.

cruiserhead

11:30am

It actually did look like a great call

Huge Manatee

We had been playing with fire lately

Man it’s all Taysom vs Browns so far

Defensive coordinator…offensive line coach…third down failure

Hoping the team will use this as fuel to get better. But I’m sad today.

Post-game thoughts (mostly against the haters and losers, as trump would say)

CrazyLikeAFox

I hate bringing up missed calls when we repeatedly shoot ourselves in the foot

Saints are so much better when they feature Taysom.

I'm confused how the team got complacent. There weren't that many people buying

OKchief

I don't believe the complacent talk. I think it's more just the hindsight is

SUAVO

11:23am

I don’t think they got complacent, just not playing well right now.

cougarmeister

11:28am

I wonder what BYU will drop to. Remember ND has an ugly loss too.

Early losses are better than later ones

CB loss spirals are funny

Actually, when we win and score 1 TD a game people still see a glaring problem.

Posts like this are so stupid.

Honestly, what part of any of this is funny?

Funny in a pathetic way

Every college fan base is the same. BYU just generally involves less alcohol and

True or False?

Totally true he said it again for those who may have missed it.

That’s just the sign of a moron. Utah got killed for loss #6 in a row.

Never conflate sports with worship

Carnac

Do we fire the coaches now?

Sea Chicken Freeloader

11:16am

lol. BYU needs wholesale changes😂. Going 9-1 in a year where you weren’t

Squirt

11:18am

Arod should be on the hot seat. Look at the defensive turnaround without Tuiaki.

CoolJ

11:22am

Two things we need to do in the offseason to upgrade for the next level

Kale

11:15am

Trenches and OC would go a long ways.

foofcoug

I'd also add a "change of pace" RB with good speed.

gopman

After a long night’s sleep, I don’t feel any better-still frustrated . . .

El Paso Coug

11:14am

We have to hope the offense turns a corner this week.

JAGA97

11:16am

And TD Taysom! Man I love watching him play.

cruiserhead All-American

Made me feel better watching that, glad i tuned in just in time to see it

So a quick check of stats and pretty Taysom did it all.

That sucked but I’m ok with the loss. Team needed it. We were getting more uptight with every W.

Tricksy Taysom play. Nice throw.

A Rod Needs to Speed the offense up

baller_jayz

11:08am

No, he just needs to figure out the Redzone. Our defense is good, but I dont

cougaman

11:09am

This is the issue. We got to the red zone several times

Jay_L

11:14am

Red zone offense was 31 of 33 entering last night.

Spiff

11:14am

Well I stand corrected…

Jay_L

11:23am

How many are FG. He has been much better this year, but it was the biggest

cougaman

11:28am

That's going to require less substitution. Defenses the last two weeks have slowly substituted to prevent just that.

Spiff

11:09am

Less substitution would be great

JoeExotic

11:10am

Getting plays called so the offense doesn't break the huddle with under 10 seconds on the play clock would be great too.

foofcoug

11:13am

I said the exact same thing.

Haysom Till

We need to get out of 11 personnel. Our TEs are bad.

Get out of the cold and we’ll have a lot of fans

Carnac

11:26am

I think teams might have us figured out at this point in the season

Ol Big Bear

11:29am

I think our QB has a pretty low ceiling. Our offense has overperformed overall.

Mr. Scoobs

11:04am

Jake has won us a bunch of games. Let’s see how he rebounds.

CHUNKman

11:06am

Not lost I guess

Deleted

He’s still 9-1

BlueWand

Jake's ceiling is sky high. His floor is just quite low.

NGB

11:11am

How many BYU qbs have achieved 9-1? Dudes a gamer

Squirt

I think the D and special teams have covered for his deficiencies in many games.

He's got an inner problem that causes balance issues. Not a flop.

SUAVO

I do think an elite passer would thrive with the current WR group. Lassiter and Chase are routinely open on deep routes

letthewookieewin

11:04am

Arod doesn’t get the respect he deserves for his ability to develop QBs.

Squirt

11:03am

I think an alpha sees that and thinks he has a shot to be a starter & difference

rivercitycoug

11:03am

He could see all the throws Jake missed and think, "I can hit that." Sees a missed read and says, "I can make that read"
