Whittingham has had 4 weeks to "figure things out" as a diabolically good coach

He's lost to Arizona, Arizona State, TCU, and Houston. His offense put up 10, 19, 7, and 14 points in those losses. He benched his QB1 middle of the last game.

It guarantees nothing, but it certainly does not speak to a coach who is able to "figure things out."

Of the 4 games left rank hardest to easiest

Houston is certainly easiest at home end of November

UH is on a 3 game win streak. Playing way better than Utah rn

Well at least 3 pts better

Here are mine. All are winnable, and loseable.

@Utah after a bye, good D, them in the spoiler role, still hardest to me.

100% this

I was close to going this way too. All 4 are close in difficultly.

My thoughts exactly

MaxxPower

This. I hate to give it to them, but I will. Also @ ASU > KU at home

cajuncoug

@ASU will be a tough game for BYU.

Plantagenet

Utah knows us and our coaches and our tendencies too well. It’s gonna be tough.

And we know theirs, they’ve had the same defense for years…

Have to think ARod is always pretty pumped to play Whitt

Like we saw today, weather can matter a lot this time of year

@ Utah-->@ASU-->KU-->UH

Nov 2, 10:18pm

I really hope we beat Kansas by 14+

Nov 2, 10:18pm

@Utah, @Arizona, Kansas, Houston.

runnincoug

Nov 2, 10:18pm

No way, Utah is one of the two hardest

nova_coug_fan

Nov 2, 10:18pm

I could have easily put them at 1. They are close. Statistically they should be

But that’s the point. You can’t take emotions out of a rivalry game.

Who is emotional?

NYCougz

Nov 2, 10:43pm

Coaches, players, crowd…

ldssdl

Nov 2, 11:21pm

At ASU. Rest are about the same.

Utah, asu, Kansas, Houston

Idacoug

Nov 2, 10:19pm

I think BYU matches up REALLY WELL against ASU.

Lance71

Nov 2, 10:20pm

I agree. But they are away and asu is 6-2

Idacoug

Nov 2, 10:34pm

Why?

ldssdl

Nov 2, 10:38pm

ASU is all power run. The kind of power run BYU has been really good at stopping

Lance71

The toughest game is ALWAYS the next game

Houston just proved today, probably — that our game in RES might get interesting.

SinkingQuffa

Nov 2, 10:21pm

For sure. I could see all 4 within 7 or less points

Tuskaloosa Cougar

Nov 2, 10:22pm

We do have an easier remaining schedule than everyone EXCEPT maybe CU. But, geesh, I do agree w you.

SinkingQuffa

Nov 2, 10:31pm

They lost Arizona who looks awful now

puntersarepeople

Nov 2, 11:11pm

They clearly stunk under Isaac at first, but I think the impression was they weren't improving, & maybe that ain't true.

SinkingQuffa

Nov 2, 11:14pm

They’re not improving. But they might not be getting a lot worse

puntersarepeople

Nov 2, 11:17pm

Not sure I agree. Losing on the final drive @Houston probably wasn't nearly as bad a loss as vs Arizona.

SinkingQuffa

Nov 2, 11:27pm

They’re on a 4 game losing streak and fired their OC. They are not improving

puntersarepeople

Nov 3, 12:32am

I expect us to win the game even in RES. But ONLY because we're a good team. This

SinkingQuffa

Nov 3, 1:58am

Their defense was much better as they lost two starting DBs after that game

puntersarepeople

Nov 3, 7:51am

Kansas, ASU, Utah, Houston

bythenumbers

Nov 2, 10:27pm

ASU 1, Yewtah 2, Kansas 3, Houston 4

Nov 2, 10:35pm

I still think the rivalry game is going to be the toughest despite their recent

My chances of winning each game

Please let it be true.

Tuskaloosa Cougar

Nov 3, 9:19am

That's a 30% chance of running the table rest of regular season

krindorr

Nov 3, 10:57am

Under the assumption that they are all independent of each other

Nov 3, 11:51am

I mean we couldn’t lose all 4. Let’s be rational about this.

andrewg3

Nov 3, 12:15am

6% chance of this happening per FPI.

Plantagenet

Nov 3, 8:59am

Exactly. Not gonna happen.

I was very close to making Utah 1 and ASU 2. Like I said none are easy and well

I think there is a very strong case it should be the toughest game left for

ASU, Utah, Houston, Kansas

Utah, ASU, Kansas, Houston - all formidable foes

BYU Fan

Easy: Utah, Kansas, Arizona State, Houston.

BYUCPA

Nov 3, 8:15am

None of these games will be easy

Real Men Wear Blue

Nov 3, 9:27am

We agree

Tuskaloosa Cougar

@ASU, @Utah, Houston, Kansas

krindorr

I’d like to believe that last part. I mostly don’t
