But had some key meltdowns which kept them off the scoreboard. They ran out of steam in the 4th.

It's not THAT they lost. It's HOW they lost that is frustrating to me.

I'm just curious what five game losing streak wouldn't be frustrating?

3 were competitive? Only two. The Oklahoma games. Texas was kinda competitive

The Texas game was over after the first quarter.

lol. I was at the Texas game. We were never really in that game from the jump.

LOL I was at the game too. BYU didn't get run off the field — certainly not remotely close to the way

Sure other games were worse, but BYU was never competitive. It wasn’t a beat

Our first four drives of the game we didn’t run more than 3 plays a single drive

Compare that to their toughest opening 5 games ever

I recently watched the last two games, and I'm really bullish on Retzlaff.

SLIVER

There is nothing from those last two games which have me bullish on Retzlaff

He was getting that RPO going. When he was in his groove he looked good. Robbins

The last two games had me more hopeful about the OL this year than it did about the QB

Indy Coug

Jun 24, 1:36pm

That is kind of the point. The OL should be much better which will help the QB

Robbins made the OL look better because he is great running north/south. He

Retzlaff got too excited and zipped passes that were uncatchable.

We were competing. They were good teams. There is hope for this team.

That's also 5 of the 6 best teams in the Big 12. Iowa St., Kansas St, and WV were all tied with 6-3 conf records.

Were they that rare under Bronco or is your memory just bad?

Oh, you definitely missed more than a few of Bronco's. For instance, losing to Virginia in 2013 was brutal. We only

"pretty rare under Bronco" ... Lol.

You know what else Bronco never did? Beat Utah by more than a one score margin.

That's almost a Wrubell-esque stat

Well part of the reason for the stellar records is those teams went 5-0 vs BYU
