almost every year for the last 15 years and knowing they’ll be back in the playoff very soon (if not this year!).

For us, it’s both the missed opportunity and the rarity of that opportunity.

I should be waaaaay more happy with this season. But yet, here I am. Sad.

Agreed. Despite missing the playoff, a blowout win last night (like ASU had) would have lifted my spirits.

There's an unfairness about several things that is hard to get over.

Playing bad football the last three weeks is on us, no unfairness about it…

That’s totally true. But BYU is graded differently than others playing “bad”

How are you not happy with 10-2? If you're only happy with playoff appearances, prepare to be miserable.

Expectations were understandably adjusted by the time we reached 9-0.

It's just how close we were to the CCG. Those opportunities could be few and far between. But 10 wins, tied at the top

It’s because we choked down the stretch. We will get over it but will take time

You guys should've realized lady luck had smiled on us favorably to that point
