Whatever it was, it was right after the FUMBLE. He fumbled, that's all there is
to it.

Name the single most catastrophic play in the last 5 years for BYU
Indy Coug

Doman not telling Taysom to take a knee.
byubyu
10/2/14 11:46am
why do you have to bring up such bad memories?
Schultz is back
10/2/14 11:46am
because Indy doesn't know how to keep his thoughts to himself.

There is only one right answer
furiousb

Yep. This one.

'you're the special right?' 'yeah that's me'
franklyvulgar
10/2/14 11:48am
This one. I cringe just thinking about it. It gives me nightmares still
Schultz is back
10/2/14 11:51am
Good point. Without that the game would have been closer. 47 to 10.

The score wasn't the issue... (although I would have liked it to be different)
CATXCoug
10/2/14 1:51pm
That game was very winnable. Down by 7 at half.
jkccoug
10/2/14 1:59pm
I really don't think that is it
Indy Coug
10/2/14 12:00pm
Define "catastrophe" then.
furiousb
10/2/14 12:04pm
One single play that had more negative impact on the season
Indy Coug
10/2/14 12:06pm
When I think of crappy BYU seasons in recent past, I see that play
furiousb
10/2/14 12:15pm
Are you talking about the BYU game against UNM when Berry
Bob Vance
10/2/14 12:15pm
That was very bad, but 11 years ago
Indy Coug
10/2/14 12:16pm
oh yeah

Man, only fans obsessed with Utah believe that's the most catastrophic play.

What about Nelson missing a wide open Hoffman at ND during their NC season run?
cougarnerd
10/2/14 1:30pm
This may be it. BB fumble at Utah is big, but that game wasn't lost on that one
Y05
10/2/14 1:50pm
And that wasn't really a fumble...
BabyOx
10/2/14 9:39pm
That play sucked. Wasn't catastrophic. Catastrophic is a whole season going up
byutx
10/2/14 1:36pm
The sad truth is, even if Hill hadn't gotten hurt, Riley still would have come
Bronoc
10/2/14 1:39pm
Riley Nelson getting his back broken on a meaningless hit vs Weber State
cougarmikey
10/2/14 1:45pm
This may be the winner.
PolarisPrime
10/2/14 3:18pm
You have a really good point. Riley, for all of his faults in incapabilities
Schultz is back
10/2/14 3:46pm
He would have been injured later on. He sucked before his back injury
byutx
10/2/14 7:43pm
that was my first thought but then I thought about Mitch Mathews tipped TD catch
icecougar
10/2/14 2:08pm
Rules missing a wide open Hoffman against ND, would have won us the game
shakavaka
10/2/14 2:47pm
Agreed! 2nd is Hoffman wide open last play Utah game RN blocked pass
mcdeere72
10/2/14 7:57pm
Even if he had seen Hoffman it was 50/50 he would have overthrown him.

RebelScum
10/2/14 5:27pm
The easy choice is the Heaps somersault fumble, but
Y Mountain
10/2/14 11:47am
The miss to Hoffman at ND is another good choice
inertiaman
10/2/14 11:49am
Good point. BSU pick six, or the missed block on the 2 pt try
fulano
10/2/14 11:49am
or the other INT Nelson threw at the goalline ending a scoring possiblity
Y05
10/2/14 1:52pm
Sigh. That season was full of close games where we were only 1 play away...
ldssdl
10/2/14 11:52am
or the Bradley "fumble"
Biyamiti
10/2/14 11:53am
That one bugs me, but out of BYU's control to an extent. Stupid refs.
Y Mountain
10/2/14 11:56am
It was clearly a correction for the missed call vs SDSU earlier in the year
SpiffCoug
10/2/14 12:47pm
That's exactly what I thought when I saw that. 100% intentional miscall

Nelson's broken back vs Weber State
Indy Coug
10/2/14 11:47am
True. A healthy Nelson probably beats Utah, Oregon State, ND, and SJSU.
byubyu
10/2/14 11:49am
Choosing to play Nelson in those games was an even more catastrophic event.
coug203
10/2/14 11:50am
Choosing to play Nelson period is one of the all-time greatest BYU catastrophes
AggieWeekendCougar
10/2/14 12:16pm
choosing to ever allow nelson to be a BYU QB is worse

cougaman
10/3/14 12:53am
Heaps play to open the 54-10 game. Wheels still probably come off though
fulano
10/2/14 11:47am
Maybe maybe not. They were only leading 14-10 at the half.
ldssdl
10/2/14 11:53am
Heaps fumble into the end zone
inertiaman
10/2/14 11:48am
Whatever Riley Nelson's first play was
Biyamiti
10/2/14 11:48am
I was going to say the tipped TD pass, which launched Riley
fulano
10/2/14 11:49am
Bingo!

Heaps fumble is infamous, but wide-open Hoffman is the "what might've been"
IGlowInTheDark
10/2/14 11:48am
exactly. those are all plays we wish we could have back, but Heaps' fumble is
Schultz is back

For the record...

PolarisPrime
10/2/14 9:52pm
Uh... it was bad
Bronoc
10/2/14 3:42pm
If he flubbed the throw
PolarisPrime
10/2/14 3:45pm
there was no way it was an incomplete bass, but he definitely flubbed it
Bronoc
10/2/14 3:53pm
Would that be like a trophy fish mising its dorsal fin?
PolarisPrime
10/2/14 3:59pm
he was never in control - he was too panicked about getting hit
Bronoc
10/2/14 4:17pm
Absolutely. Or at least frantic not to take a big loss
PolarisPrime
10/2/14 4:20pm
Heaps had played full year as a starter already
Bronoc
10/2/14 4:25pm
He was still an 18 year old sophmore.
PolarisPrime
10/2/14 4:36pm
with more than enough experience playing against several tough opponents
Bronoc

You seem very sensitive in regards to this play.....
