We are losing to BAD teams. Yes, injuries have hurt BYU, but...

this was supposed to be the year that they had talent and depth to compete. The injuries BYU has sustained this year should not have taken the Cougars from a solid top 15 team to one that loses to bad teams like USU and Nevada.
Did you not see the incredibly sketchy defensive play against Houston and Virginia? We were lucky to win both of those games.
Yes, the Cougars were playing better before the injuries, but BYU is simply not a good team in 2014 and trying and explain that away is silly.

Don't forget: We are a handful of injuries away from being undefeated right now

Zach

Or a decent pass rush

Byu4life

10/21/14 9:32am

Speaking of a pass rush....

Zach

10/21/14 9:34am

This is lack of talent and experience imo ..... Our D line is not good, not yet

Jhayes

dude just stop. we are not.

southernfriedcougar

10/21/14 9:34am

Yes we are.

Zach

10/21/14 9:35am

why bother explaining anything to Zach?

southernfriedcougar

10/21/14 9:40am

So, you're not going to answer my question?

Zach

I guess you can't answer that.

Intended for OP.

coug'sdad

10/21/14 10:03am

I think right here is fine. Someone needs to tell him to watch those games.

southernfriedcougar

10/21/14 10:04am

Apparently many Cougar fans didn't watch those games very closely.

coug'sdad

10/21/14 10:27am

When certain fans see the W, they block out all else.

southernfriedcougar

10/21/14 10:33am

Good to know you see it too. I was starting to think I was the only one.

coug'sdad

10/21/14 10:37am

They aren't BAD, they are average teams.... UCF is ok, UNR is ok, USU was OK

Jhayes

10/21/14 10:09am

I disagree, but I respect your opinion.

coug'sdad

10/21/14 10:13am

Well you were a couple of scores down to USU WITH Taysom.

hanzelka

10/21/14 10:58am

It was only 7 wasn't it? Or am I mistaken?

Jhayes

10/21/14 10:59am

It was only 7

10/21/14 12:58pm

oooo there goes gravity

10/21/14 9:44am

BYU would probably be 7-0, but that wouldn't make BYU great.

you mean like mid game decapitation of key players on opposing teams?

we are always a few plays or players away from undefeated

That is not true.

Maybe, but Christian did pass for 400+ yards and 4 TD's

We have been a great coach away from going to a BCS game by now too

10/21/14 9:40am

You may find a better on the field coach...

Zach

10/21/14 9:41am

I want a better field coach that can do what Lavell did with the BYU stuff...

10/21/14 9:44am

I agree here but BYU overachieves continously so I can't go coaches with you.

stonecougar

10/21/14 9:46am

Nope dream on smokey!

stonecougar

10/21/14 9:42am

If we are going to play the what if game...

10/21/14 9:46am

Does that mean we are good?

stonecougar

10/21/14 9:40am

No. It means Taysom was really, really good.

HuskerFan2

10/21/14 9:52am

we were stumbling anyway.

stonecougar

Oh goodness. Just stop.

This is such a stupid argument. You or anyone else has no clue how the games

Jkampana

10/21/14 10:19am

Zach I wish I had your optimism. I don't think we beat USU the way they were

Michicoug

10/21/14 10:33am

USU pointed out a couple of flaws in your defense that others are exploiting.

hanzelka

10/21/14 10:58am

Injuries aren't an excuse, especially when you treated your Ferrari QB like a

wabluecoug

10/21/14 10:41am

my optimists POV is that this rough stretch will set the stage for a better team

Government Bailout

10/21/14 10:48am

With most of our starters we should still beat Utah State and Nevada.

BYU81

10/21/14 11:51am

And probably UCF. They're not very good either.

BYU81

10/21/14 11:52am

Sure - the team is weaker with all the injuries...BUT

cougXor

10/21/14 11:59am

Don't forget, we are a handful of coaches away from being 7-0.

southernfriedcougar

10/21/14 12:41pm

even with the injuries we should still be 6-1

Houston definitely did, Virginia did as well

Zach, good teams do not get blown out by a 21 point underdog at home!

Gene Frenkle

10/21/14 2:37pm

35-20 is not getting blown out

Zach

10/21/14 2:52pm

Is it even a loss in your mind?

southernfriedcougar

10/21/14 2:55pm

It's a win for one of the teams.

Zach

10/21/14 3:17pm

BYU right? Moral victory?
