BYU I Bleed Blue All-American

feel like they didn't do well if none of the scores started on their side of the field.

It is better to be opportunistic than to just have a bunch of drives that do or don't end in a score.

This is interesting post game analysis by K-State folks

The total yards thing is a red herring... BYU's starting field position was the 44 yard line. What was the efficiency of

K-state - 17 1st downs, BYU - 14 1st downs. 4th, 0-3 v. 1-1.

K State got 39% of Available Yds. BYU got 54% of Available Yds.

Seem to say that KSU was the better team and BYU had a bunch of lucky plays...

It’s possible K state is better at moving the ball from the 20 to the 20, but

We also forced those turnovers - there wasn't anything where they just gave it away.

BYU offense did not manufacture one drive from its own territory to the endzone

As noted above, the average starting field position was our 44 yard line

Yep, being gifted great field position doesn't automatically equate to TDs. SMU against us, for example

“Gifted”. All three turnovers were take-aways, not give-aways.

That's true

Yeah the punt for field position could have been exchanged for 4th down gamble

Didn’t have any opportunities in the whole second half either

You know something else? They also had some short field, quick strike touchdown

I posted a pretty fair grade of the offense and gave them a B. I think it's a fair grade. I don't see why anything

You can always find a way to rain on a win.

BYU defense forced FGs - why not ream KSUs D for not holding?

They make some pretty bad points too.

Sep 22, 12:20pm

The main reason they lost is because their QB was incompetent as a thrower

Actually, that’s probably true. BYU struggles in afternoon games.

I think they win 7 or 10. When you run for 200 plus you usually win unless turn

The best part of the game for byu was finding a running back/running game.

Had to laugh when they talked about K-State defense did their part…

Yep, except for the 24 points that our offense scored, compared to the 9 for KSU

BYU got the win. Played 10 times BYU wins maybe 1,2, or 3. KState is good!

How do you conclude that when we won by 29? That would make this game 36-40
