Truth is, it almost worked to perfection against Kansas, but the Int and the pooch punt cost the game. Neither of those had anything to do with a slow paced offense, the Int was when they were in the hurry up.

I really dislike the slow pace of the offense, for several reasons.

Such a narrow-minded comment…

I completely fail to understand why CBers want to downplay our record. For some strange reason so many are unsatisfied

Being 10-2 means we lost twice and the offense was a key part of those losses

I’m not downplaying the record. I said two things can be good at the same time.

It’s also narrow minded to dismiss the fact that byu overperformed, and it

Pat on the back to those who are content with almost excellent. 10-2 beat preseason expectations, 10-2 was below

No the disconnect is that people are saying you have to be happy with a 10-2

LOLzzz

Dec 17, 9:03pm

That's exactly what I'm saying. You do have to be happy with a 10-2. If you're not, then you're doing BYU football wrong

I can be happy w/ 10-2 & upset that we lost the last 2/3. Not mutually exclusive

Exactly this whole thread is about finding ways to improve upon this season…

I’m not sure you understood a word that I said.

Nor you I…

First, this thread isn’t about finding ways to improve, it’s about pace of play

cougaman

The initial post in the thread is about changing pace of play TO IMPROVE 😂

Dec 17, 10:56pm

Right, it’s about pace of play. Not “ways”, a single “way.”

It worked to start the season, but not finding ways to improve

It was also apparent that our defense was great and benefited from the strategy.

Everything works until it doesn’t. That’s where good coaches adjust and adapt.

So it was a good plan that helped our defense and helped contribute to the 10

No the D (Jay Hill) made adjustments that contributed to those 10 wins.

I did not say Arod was responsible for it. I don’t think it’s coming from him.

That’s a rich take 🤡

The head coach can absolutely tell the OC what to do, and he is going to have

But to claim the DC has more say of the pace of the offense than the OC 😂

You mean HC and associate head coach.

Also your BM cussing me out would indicate your argument is weak at best.

Thats funny since you did respond. You obviously have are anti Arod.

In hindsight? The Kansas game was a debacle throughout. It almost worked anyway
