Is Max Hall's Post-game Interview considered a Play?

Doman not telling Taysom to take a knee.

why do you have to bring up such bad memories?

Schultz is back

10/2/14 11:46am

because Indy doesn't know how to keep his thoughts to himself.

Y05

10/2/14 1:47pm

There is only one right answer

furiousb

10/2/14 11:46am

Yep. This one.

IGlowInTheDark

10/2/14 11:47am

'you're the special right?' 'yeah that's me'

franklyvulgar

10/2/14 11:48am

This one. I cringe just thinking about it. It gives me nightmares still

Schultz is back

10/2/14 11:51am

Good point. Without that the game would have been closer. 47 to 10.

The score wasn't the issue... (although I would have liked it to be different)

CATXCoug

10/2/14 1:51pm

That game was very winnable. Down by 7 at half.

jkccoug

10/2/14 1:59pm

I really don't think that is it

Indy Coug

10/2/14 12:00pm

Define "catastrophe" then.

furiousb

10/2/14 12:04pm

One single play that had more negative impact on the season

Indy Coug

10/2/14 12:06pm

When I think of crappy BYU seasons in recent past, I see that play

furiousb

10/2/14 12:15pm

Are you talking about the BYU game against UNM when Berry

Bob Vance

10/2/14 12:15pm

That was very bad, but 11 years ago

Indy Coug

10/2/14 12:16pm

oh yeah

Bob Vance

10/2/14 12:24pm

Man, only fans obsessed with Utah believe that's the most catastrophic play.

What about Nelson missing a wide open Hoffman at ND during their NC season run?

cougarnerd

10/2/14 1:30pm

This may be it. BB fumble at Utah is big, but that game wasn't lost on that one

Y05

10/2/14 1:50pm

And that wasn't really a fumble...

BabyOx

10/2/14 9:39pm

That play sucked. Wasn't catastrophic. Catastrophic is a whole season going up

byutx

10/2/14 1:36pm

The sad truth is, even if Hill hadn't gotten hurt, Riley still would have come

Bronoc

10/2/14 1:39pm

Riley Nelson getting his back broken on a meaningless hit vs Weber State

cougarmikey

10/2/14 1:45pm

This may be the winner.

PolarisPrime

10/2/14 3:18pm

You have a really good point. Riley, for all of his faults in incapabilities

Schultz is back

10/2/14 3:46pm

He would have been injured later on. He sucked before his back injury

byutx

10/2/14 7:43pm

that was my first thought but then I thought about Mitch Mathews tipped TD catch

icecougar

10/2/14 2:08pm

Rules missing a wide open Hoffman against ND, would have won us the game

shakavaka

10/2/14 2:47pm

Agreed! 2nd is Hoffman wide open last play Utah game RN blocked pass

mcdeere72

10/2/14 7:57pm

Even if he had seen Hoffman it was 50/50 he would have overthrown him.

McMahon9

10/2/14 5:18pm

This was my first thought. And second...

RebelScum

10/2/14 5:27pm

The easy choice is the Heaps somersault fumble, but

Y Mountain

10/2/14 11:47am

The miss to Hoffman at ND is another good choice

inertiaman

10/2/14 11:49am

Good point. BSU pick six, or the missed block on the 2 pt try

fulano

10/2/14 11:49am

or the other INT Nelson threw at the goalline ending a scoring possiblity

Y05

10/2/14 1:52pm

Sigh. That season was full of close games where we were only 1 play away...

ldssdl

10/2/14 11:52am

or the Bradley "fumble"

Biyamiti

10/2/14 11:53am

That one bugs me, but out of BYU's control to an extent. Stupid refs.

Y Mountain

10/2/14 11:56am

It was clearly a correction for the missed call vs SDSU earlier in the year

SpiffCoug

10/2/14 12:47pm

That's exactly what I thought when I saw that. 100% intentional miscall

Once Bradley fumbled, I had a feeling that game was pretty much over.

I often think of the Bradley fumble mainly because the Bishop of the single's

P-Boy Squad

budYu

10/2/14 1:15pm

Odd that BYU boosters didn't send a letter demanding his resignation, then.

Art Director

10/2/14 1:40pm

Whoa. Is this true?

Japan Coug

10/5/14 7:20am

the bad snap cartwheel that led to seven early points and set the tone for 54-10

hansel

10/2/14 11:47am

Nelson's broken back vs Weber State

Indy Coug

10/2/14 11:47am

True. A healthy Nelson probably beats Utah, Oregon State, ND, and SJSU.

byubyu

10/2/14 11:49am

Choosing to play Nelson in those games was an even more catastrophic event.

coug203

10/2/14 11:50am

Choosing to play Nelson period is one of the all-time greatest BYU catastrophes

AggieWeekendCougar

10/2/14 12:16pm

choosing to ever allow nelson to be a BYU QB is worse

El Joffrey

10/2/14 12:19pm

Hitching the wagon to a fragile QB was a bad choice from the beginning. He never

wabluecoug

10/2/14 12:27pm

Hmmm. Riley stays healthy means Taysom doesn't go down....Hmmm.

StalwartBraveTrue

The fact the Weber has serious pass rush still makes me cringe

THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE

whirl

10/2/14 11:53am

This is the one for me. Lots of bad luck against the Utes after this one, but

cougaman

10/3/14 12:53am

Heaps play to open the 54-10 game. Wheels still probably come off though

fulano

10/2/14 11:47am

Maybe maybe not. They were only leading 14-10 at the half.

ldssdl

10/2/14 11:53am

Heaps fumble into the end zone

inertiaman

10/2/14 11:48am

Whatever Riley Nelson's first play was

Biyamiti

10/2/14 11:48am

I was going to say the tipped TD pass, which launched Riley

fulano

10/2/14 11:49am

Bingo!

icecougar

10/2/14 2:09pm

Heaps fumble is infamous, but wide-open Hoffman is the "what might've been"

IGlowInTheDark

10/2/14 11:48am

exactly. those are all plays we wish we could have back, but Heaps' fumble is

Schultz is back

10/2/14 11:54am

For the record...

PolarisPrime

10/2/14 3:24pm

Not sure I've ever seen a player jump over the ball like that, pretty comical

CougHomer

10/2/14 3:38pm

And that is part of the legend

PolarisPrime

10/2/14 3:41pm

Sure looks a lot more like a jump than a fall to me

CougHomer

10/2/14 3:57pm

You had better watch again then because there is no actual

PolarisPrime

10/2/14 4:04pm

Whatever it was, it was right after the FUMBLE. He fumbled, that's all there is

BabyOx

10/2/14 9:47pm

The center fumbled. Heaps just did a bad job of trying to

PolarisPrime

10/2/14 9:52pm

Uh... it was bad

Bronoc

10/2/14 3:42pm

If he flubbed the throw

PolarisPrime

10/2/14 3:45pm

there was no way it was an incomplete bass, but he definitely flubbed it

Bronoc

10/2/14 3:53pm

Would that be like a trophy fish mising its dorsal fin?

PolarisPrime

10/2/14 3:59pm

he was never in control - he was too panicked about getting hit

Bronoc

10/2/14 4:17pm

Absolutely. Or at least frantic not to take a big loss

PolarisPrime

10/2/14 4:20pm

Heaps had played full year as a starter already

Bronoc

10/2/14 4:25pm

He was still an 18 year old sophmore.

PolarisPrime

10/2/14 4:36pm

with more than enough experience playing against several tough opponents

Bronoc

10/2/14 4:55pm

You seem very sensitive in regards to this play.....

CougHomer

10/2/14 3:58pm

Not really

PolarisPrime

10/2/14 4:02pm

I agree with you pretty much on everything

CougHomer

10/2/14 4:12pm

It was definitely funny looking.
