On SMU

They've hung up a lot of points on everyone except BYU.

And the QB who has played since BYU played most of the BYU game (I think the other guy had three drives for negative yards).

It's almost like that guy doesn't know what he's talking about...

A couple Ute fans’ posts I wanted to bookmark:

Today I heard someone from the media saying Utah could easily go 6-0...

WJCougar

Oct 15, 12:41pm

I think Utah will most likely go 3-3 from here on out. 4-2 would be really good,

Jdoc

Oct 15, 12:42pm

They certainly could, but I wouldn't say easily. They need to start playing

RGGeemer

Most their games are winnable but the margin for error is low.

But Wilson wasn't good enough to put in when Cam sucked against ASU. Freshman QB

Oh so suddenly the in-state game is kind of important?

Huge Manatee

Oct 15, 12:41pm

They act like no one else's defense can impact the game

CougarLucas

When you fire OC after OC and a team rule is protect the D, fans learn D is only

Didn’t SMU’s currently starting QB play the majority of snaps against BYU?

ldssdl

Oct 15, 12:46pm

He got nearly 90% of the snaps against us.

Six Foot Seven

Oct 15, 12:47pm

Yep, Stone was only on the field for 9 of their 90 total plays. He was 2/4 for

BamaCoug

Oct 15, 1:39pm

Yes. The other guy got 3 series I think.

RalphWiggam

Oct 15, 12:47pm

If you can call those 'series'

RGGeemer

Oct 15, 12:50pm

BYU basically ended the other QBs career at SMU

WJCougar

Oct 15, 6:25pm

Man, if they think BYU is lucky, I wonder what kind of scrutiny they give to

dYrtbYkerYder

This is why, IMO the Utah game is so important:

gangbusters

I don't disagree - the utah game is very important.

Mexicougazul

Oct 15, 12:49pm

Haha. Yes, very true, but at least it'll gnaw at their hides.

gangbusters

Oct 15, 12:51pm

It's heading that direction. Invited to the P5, Won in 2021, PAC12 blew up,

RGGeemer

Oct 15, 12:52pm

This year will help, but the scenario you lay out I agree will probably sill it

Mexicougazul

Oct 15, 12:54pm

They won't, it's not in their nature to shut up

Socrates Johnson

They’re already testing out their excuses - the team names are different but the

Nah. Even playing field now. Same conference. Better record. If we lose ppl

YOHONOMOTO

Love ya too, utes

BlueFever

Oct 15, 12:49pm

I'm on CB way too much, and I don't see BYU fans saying we will easily beat UU

cougarmeister

Oct 15, 12:50pm

I believe BYU will finish 11-1 and be in the Big 12 Championship game. BYU has

Jdoc

Oct 15, 12:51pm

So once again we have UU fans blaming BYU fans for things UU fans do and say.

Mitty

Oct 15, 1:10pm

Been posting the same thing about UU on UU forums to counter your reverse jinxes

machete

Oct 15, 3:05pm

Long shot? I’d say we are more likely than most other teams at this point

YOHONOMOTO

Oct 15, 3:16pm

Current probabilities (from NY Times) for BYU playoffs, Big 12 champs, & Natty

cougarmeister

Oct 15, 6:26pm

20% is actually kind of crazy 😂

YOHONOMOTO

Oct 15, 10:32pm

BYU is making good/decent QBs look absolutely awful.. #1 pass efficiency defense

BYUFootballisBack

Oct 15, 12:52pm

Good old Matthute. Never change, homie!

Abe Froman

Oct 15, 12:54pm

Conveniently ignores our offense has been transformed since we played SMU and we

puntersarepeople

Oct 15, 1:02pm

Also ignores that Baylor had a QB change after the Utah game

Remigius

Oct 15, 1:08pm

Also ignores the fact that Baylor outperformed us in so many stats

TheRefsStink

Oct 15, 2:28pm

Bruce Mitchell did not play center vs Baylor - Sonny Makasini did

ElkhunterUT

Oct 15, 2:52pm

Good point. Still a backup center. Still affected the 2nd half offense.

TheRefsStink

Oct 15, 3:02pm

Also ignores that we didn't have many yards because we had short fields.

Brandoblueblood

Oct 15, 2:43pm

I was laughing at that original post over the weekend as well.

5150man

Oct 15, 1:44pm

To your point about Utah's luck:

TheRefsStink

Oct 15, 3:00pm

Agreed. Our D now seems prepared enough to get lucky.

5150man

Oct 15, 3:26pm

Based on these narratives, he probably describes Rising as Joe Montana vs. ASU.

Some people don't understand football

BYU is playing excellent football. Utes should respect that and enjoy watching a tight conference battle. Utah

TFL

Oct 15, 3:44pm

This you? "Big 12 fans who expect Utah to perform the same as Cincy, BYU, UCF and UH did, are going to be surprised."

Atmospheric_Cougar

Oct 15, 6:44pm

Probably. Having a superstar QB going down changes perspectives. Utah is still 4-2. At this rate, they'll finish

TFL

Oct 15, 9:06pm

Which matches the best year you had with your 'superstar qb'

RGGeemer

Oct 15, 9:15pm

True...the key for him was beating two top 5 teams and then clobbering the in the CCG on national TV. TBH...

TFL

Oct 15, 9:18pm

Robbie Bosco did it

RGGeemer

Oct 15, 10:22pm

He also won the natty, by the way

RGGeemer

Oct 15, 10:28pm

There are some elements of the first comment that I don't necessarily disagree with.

TheLoneCougar

Oct 15, 4:20pm

The truth is if BYU won the NC these guys would post the same drivel the very next day

Knight-who-says-ni

Oct 15, 4:26pm

I love how the one guy talks about Kstate holding us to under 100

NonmormonYfan89

Oct 15, 4:35pm

Not to mention the fact that BYU's D gave short fields to BYU's O. Who needs

Abe Froman

And a punt return td taking away a full other possession
