That stat alone speaks volumes.
If one of the worst teams in FBS is predicted to beat BYU four out of ten times, we’ve got major problems.

Wow.

And not to lose to a team that got beat by Ball State 52-14...BALL STATE...

NOT fat it means a lot, but Toledo was without their starting qb
BYU '80
10/21/19 11:49am
Toledo beat us on the ground. It means nothing.

I agree we are a better team than our record indicates

Wish we were 5-2 with that SOS.....
Santos L. Halper
10/21/19 9:24am
5-2 with that schedule would have ranked between 25 and 20 imo

Definitely would be near the cusp. That's frustrating.

The same guy ranks BYU 69th.

One of the greatest numbers of all time. Of all time.

In other words: he recognizes the schedule is hard, but still thinks we suck

*He still thinks BYU is roughly an average FBS team

injury excuses are weak. ZW played 99.999% of the game vs Toledo. Our #2 QB
bluebrotha
10/21/19 9:24am
BYU had a 64% chance of beating one of the worst teams in the FBS. You make it sound like it was 95%
Indy Coug
10/21/19 9:27am
That stat alone speaks volumes.
ataylor
10/21/19 9:29am
Well, it speaks volumes about fan expectations versus reality
Indy Coug
10/21/19 9:30am
Also speaks volumes about both perception and reality of BYU football in 2019.
ataylor
10/21/19 9:30am
BYU also had less than a 50% chance of beating Toledo, per FPI
Indy Coug
10/21/19 9:29am
I have a feeling if we were scheduled to play them next week, the percentage
The Dude Abides
10/21/19 9:34am
I agree
cougarmanguy
10/21/19 9:38am
That and a win over BSU with the personnel we had.
ataylor
10/21/19 9:28am
I said consistent execution too. The losses are maddening to be sure
canofpicante
10/21/19 9:33am
QB isn't the only position that has been affected by injuries.
SoCalCoug
10/21/19 9:47am
It was the defense
sammycoug
10/21/19 10:40am
Coaching and preparation are truly what moves that needle.
Bovine University
10/21/19 11:18am
I think the early start time was a big factor in the Toledo loss.

10/21/19 12:30pm
We are exactly the team our record indicates.
Sea Chicken
10/21/19 9:25am
Maybe. But we'd have the same team and a better record if our coaches hadn't gone to a three man front to let two bad
No touching
10/21/19 9:30am
Disagree. Here’s why:

and the record reflects that
Sea Chicken

Unless you go undefeated in a weak conference or winless in a tough one
ryebrye

The reason people are upset is the losses to bad teams.
Baron
10/21/19 9:28am
If we had gone 10-2 or we go 6-6, would our bowl location be different?
BYU71
10/21/19 9:28am
Probably not
PessimisticCB
10/21/19 9:39am
ESPN has the power to flex us into other Bowl Games they own, and they probably
MikeDitka'sStache
10/21/19 9:39am
Doubt it. BYU would have to be ranked pretty high to move the needle.
a priori
10/21/19 9:42am
That is a plus I didn't know about.
BYU71
10/21/19 9:48am
No

No, but it affects recruiting.

StalwartBraveTrue

Surprised considering Toledo and USF aren’t that strong
Cougarpride

Sad that 2 of our losses are the worst 2 teams on our schedule so far 🙁
BYUFootballisBack

Wow and you don't see another team with 2 wins vs Top 30 until Baylor at #16!
