it up. The naysayers are unfortunately very vocal, and many seem to have more time to post than many of us who actually have to work for a living. Oops, did I say that out loud?

We’re not expecting a perfect team. We’re expecting a coach that learns from history and adapts

Board name check. This is big time ball. Every big time football team that has a fan base that gives a rats does this.

If we had a mediocre QB who didn’t turn the ball over, we’d all be over the moon. It’s hard to get excited when

I enjoy rooting for BYU football. I also want our team to make good decisions

bluesloth

Unfortunately fans have no say into thr decision making of the team.

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:08pm

Ok. And? Why even discuss the games? I don’t get the policing of people that

bluesloth

I discuss the games. Slandering our starting QB and OC is not discussing the

Slander? Ouch. Don’t remember doing that.

This board has been full of it for 3 days now. My bro just deactivated his

I think people trying to overstate the performance doesn't help. Both overly rosey and overly pessimistic is a problem

CSoul

I just want a place to discuss byu sports. I'm totally fine with frustration.

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:25pm

What ways have you laid out that will improve the team?

MaxxPower

Ill disagree with this. Somewhere out there, prominent people at BYU access CB

BYU coaches are always "evaluating their options," and choose to disagree with

You should become a football coach then.

Bama struggled worse than we did in their win over USF.

And if that continues this season I guarantee major changes will be made

It’s not bandwagon fans complaining.

I might be wrong, but bandwagon fans just walk away.

I agree we should discuss, not hate…

It bothers us because we need hope.

Interesting how those maligning our players love to shift the narrative to

jaba166

Sep 8, 10:30pm

I would be happy with an just average QB and an 8 win season

bythenumbers

Sep 8, 9:14pm

We are on track for that at the moment. Maybe we'll get there!

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:16pm

On track?

WJCougar

Sep 8, 9:18pm

2-0 and Jake's numbers are about average right now.

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:19pm

Last year they were on track for 6 wins and lost 5 straight.

WJCougar

Sep 8, 9:20pm

Correct. That sucked. Who's to say that will happen again this year? Let's wait

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:23pm

Thus why I said.....

WJCougar

Sep 8, 9:28pm

On track for now. Things can certainly get off track.

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:30pm

Every year starts with a fresh slate. BYU is 2-0 at the moment. That's good.

DubuMfalme

Sep 8, 9:24pm

Jake is very average so far. True.

That's what I said.

Only if you keep that frustration buried deep inside. DO NOT make you

bluesloth

You can be frustrated without making CB a cesspool of negativity.

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:18pm

Of coarse. As most frustrated fans have been doing. But the incessant whining

It's been over the top the past 3 days. After a win @ SMU. I get the turnover

Be satisfied with mediocrity

I object! Hope we win a national championship, but why are you acting like a Ute

Because they can do better.

You could say that about EVERY QB in the country, except those very few whose

Amen! The negativity and so many, claiming to know better, needs to stop!

If we have eight 3 & outs in one game there's going to be complaining

If we had Riley Nelson I think the complaining would be less. Tbh.

There really needs to be a criticism category on CB. People here whine so much.

There's supposed to be. It's called the Rules:
