Were there any NON CFP games with higher attendance than Alamo Bowl?

grandpacoug

11:41am

I haven't watched many, but most of the other bowl games were not sellouts

Just stumbled upon Lubalin and he's got some good music

Has there ever been a more factual sports analogy

Kids went back to school today but have next Friday off. Who creates these dumb

Magneto

11:35am

Exactly, why did they have my kids go back for two days then the weekend again??

coug10278

11:38am

Kids should have every Friday off.

ATX

11:39am

3 games left in cfb, and they are basically the same teams discussed every year.

bald man

11:32am

So we get the benefit of knowing that the final 4 teams got there

Indy Coug

11:35am

It does. And every few years you’ll get a Cinderella that breaks through.

It'll take more than a year to spread out talent enough to create more parity

Schultz is back

Was the hit in the ASU v. Texas game targeting. My analysis of Rules 9-1-3 and 9-1-4.

PJMort All-American

11:32am

The one where ASU got the INT? Probably. Same with the one later on with Texas.

foofcoug

11:39am

I agree it was targeting. People seem to be confusing crown of the helmet and

rha1211

11:41am

Isn't the 6 inch radius crown rule only for defensable players (i.e. ball carriers)?

It's great to re watch too.

paulb

The show definitely hinges on that weak plot point. Still, it's a good movie, creative, and original content, that's

Spoiler alert…thanks.

Other people in the future created it so Cooper could understand the 4th dimension in a 3D environment.

It is like a modern day film adaptation of Flatland (+1 dimension)

Science: a black hole is formed when too many people fail to return checked out books.

PJMort

11:40am

Apparently there was more to the Bielema/Beamer beef lol. I guess earlier in the game SC did an alleged dirty play.

byuTX mutual friends

11:27am

I'm on Team Bielema for this one. Beamer looks like a crybaby.

Conan

11:28am

Bielema was still a Richard for his extremely over the top defensive subbing

Ghost of Peanut

11:38am

BYU did that in a few games as well. It's less bothersome when our team does it lol

byuTX

11:40am

"Gesture-gate"? Everything's a gate. I've never heard of the arms out thing by a returner

txblue

11:32am

It happens all the time. I bet you'll see it in the Sugar bowl

byuTX

11:34am

You'll see it all the time now if you look. That's the gesture most return guys use when they are standing at the goal

SingleStrapBackpack

11:36am

Right, during the kick. But isn't the reference that it was done pre-kick or am I misunderstanding?

txblue

11:42am

any word on Chase? Was it shoulder?, wrist?, surgery needed?

BYURider

11:25am

Labrum and reported that no surgery needed.

coug10278

11:27am

That is good news, hope it is nothing like Ben Bywater's injury

Projectoor

11:39am

Labrum tears suck and a lot of the time does not require surgery. Rehab is easier and better.

AsianCoug

11:39am

BYU got a shoutout from Annie Agar's NFL roundup today. Right at the start.

P-Widdy

11:22am

That was pretty funny. Never seen her before. She's good.

Adrielle

11:37am

Pretty spot on for the BYU reference.

Blue for Life

11:41am

With the juco years not counting, does this mean we can bring sarkisian back

Sandy Lyle

11:22am

No way...have you seen the belly on that guy?!

coug10278

11:23am

Yes. As long as there is no such thing as an eligibility clock.

HBCoug

11:24am

The best offense and special teams in the Big 12:

byujacob INSUFFERABLE KNOW IT ALL

11:21am

LOL at looking at yards per game.

rcbyufan

11:27am

Ummm looks like bYU had best special teams but not so much offense

Cooouuugs

11:30am

Sorting punt returns by the long on the season and offense by yards per game is a really bad argument

kimdaddy35

11:41am

Single and this is the year. Anyone else?

COUGALICIOUS

11:20am

My only advice:

PickleButton

11:37am

Guess I am the only one LOL

COUGALICIOUS

11:42am

Probably already posted, but Dybantsa and UT Prep is playing in AZ

Johnny Vatos

11:17am

How many miles a year does Utah Prep travel and how does that compare to a D1 program?

Indy Coug

11:20am

My question is what is the model for Utah Prep and other teams like them? Where do they get the money for travel, etc?

Zenoch

11:39am

To me, the ASU loss was kind of the best of both worlds

BYU Fan

11:17am

Makes a lot of sense. I'm pulling for Texas because they're my other team but I'm not optimistic about beating tOSU.

WDaddy

11:21am

Coaching a team to win a NC is a tall order and Dillingham doesn't measure up.

Shihan

11:27am

Texas winning is never the best of any world.

Scratch

11:24am

But ND, Georgia, or tOSU is? LOL

WDaddy

11:25am

Better than Texas. Texas is one of the biggest reasons CFB is a mess.

Scratch

11:33am

Texas is by far the best of the remaining teams to cheer for. Only a clown would cheer for

Skeptical Optimist

11:28am

The game was stolen. They were excited to be in the CFP...

ryebrye

11:25am

I'm still open to holding on to some magical words for a long, long time 🙂

BYU Fan

11:31am

It’s funny to me when some here try to discredit/take shots at Drake Toll, John

CougfromtheSouth

11:12am

I like them both and wish them success. But Drake is a 22 year old Baylor

oxcoug

11:17am

I agree his Arod rants have gotten old. But he speaks to the grievances of many

CougfromtheSouth

11:20am

He graduated and works for the Savannah Bananas / podcast stuff

BYU'01

11:22am

He’s just another dude in love with the sound of his own voice.

royal_blue

11:22am

He’s exactly like a stereotypical CBer. He’ll sharply criticize ARod, say Hill deserves whatever it costs…

Brisco

11:32am

I love how YouTube channels quickly learn BYU content results in traffic...

HurrahforIsrael

There's enough BYU homerism in SportsNation and at KSL that I don't think we need any more

Indy Coug

11:11am

When discussing the "best all-time BYU teams", don't dis the 80's teams.

The Y's Insider

11:09am

While I agree, your draft numbers are skewed. Before 1994 there were at least 12

cougarfann888

11:15am

Valid point. Still, the '81 team had 5 players drafted in rounds 1-6.

The Y's Insider

11:28am

RE: When discussing the "best all-time BYU teams", don't dis the 80's teams.

ElkhunterUT

11:16am

Some 80s players think that the ‘83 team may have been better than ‘84.

LeGrandBleu

11:19am

All those teams mentioned were very good.

mjmill All-American

11:02am

Every rules analyst, expert or official that I've seen has said its targeting

Goliath

11:01am

Does the pass being tipped matter? I'm guessing not but just throwing out ideas.

COACHdrn

11:04am

I believe only as it relates to possible pass interference, not targeting.

neboutefan

11:05am

That’s what I understand too.

rainorsnow

11:07am

Not in terms of the penalty call, but it did impact the hit and the play

Skeptical Optimist

11:20am

Steratore weighed in this morning that it is targeting. I haven't seen any argue against

txblue

11:09am

Are they going to cancel out the TD when Scattebo was PULLED in?

IGlowInTheDark

11:11am

I believe that was on first down. And a rule that is rarely enforced

ATX

11:14am

So you’re saying…

IGlowInTheDark

11:17am

They got rid of the rule that OL can’t assist a runner.

Short_Changed

11:29am

No, they modified it. You can push but that's it. no teammate may grasp, pull, or lift the ball carrier to assist

Radioactive Coug

11:32am

The most compelling argument that it was targeting is the stipulation in the rulebook that if there is

Skeptical Optimist

11:17am

Finished Wind and Truth this morning.

Ted Lasso

10:59am

Reread Mistborn. It is much better anyway.

YSMACK

11:00am

😬

shimmy

11:01am

I've done that twice.

Ted Lasso

11:02am

Fair enough then. I just finished Mistborn again (1st time was many years ago)

YSMACK

11:05am

I would agree with a lot of that..but Way of Kings and WoR are masterpieces.

Ted Lasso

11:08am

We would part ways on that 🙂

YSMACK

11:11am

Have you read The Emperor's Soul? That is his best writing.

YSMACK

11:07am

I don't agree with you on Stormlight, but this I can agree with you. Emperor's Soul is his best work.

durandal

11:32am

And then Arcanum Unbounded

justAnotherCoug

11:09am

I think I need to do Wheel of Time

Ted Lasso

11:11am

Have you never read Wheel of Time? It is fun.

YSMACK

11:11am

I love Mistborn but the 1st two books of Stormlight might be my favorite fiction

Incentivize

11:16am

The first book is especially great. I could see that.

YSMACK

11:21am

Pray Sanderson makes it to 75 to finish the next five

Bainge
