BYU and the MWC

Jonnyj

11/23/14 3:16pm

Yes, because if we were in the MWC we would only play four games each season

BeardedSpock

11/23/14 3:18pm

Huh?

hxmCougar2000

11/23/14 3:18pm

but in reality we would've gone 4-4 at worst.

dYrtbYkerYder

11/23/14 3:18pm

Only other MWC team that would be a likely win for BYU is New Mexico

Jonnyj

11/23/14 3:24pm

New Mexico = definite win. Likely wins are Wyo, SJSU, Hawaii. AFA and FSU

NewMexiCoug

11/23/14 7:26pm

AFA demolished Boise State

Jonnyj

11/23/14 7:39pm

Transitive property rarely works in football. Bronco has owned AFA for most

NewMexiCoug

11/23/14 7:41pm

BYU last played AFA in 2010 and lost

AxelDC

11/23/14 7:53pm

Demolished? BSU lost due to 7 turnovers. Period. They outgained AFA by 130, had

NewMexiCoug

11/23/14 7:46pm

Only in the minds of BYU fans does more 1st downs or more yards mean you won

Jonnyj

11/23/14 8:29pm

logic fail

crazY

11/23/14 3:19pm

But we would be in 1st in the Big 12 and tied for 1st in the ACC!!!!

Devbo

11/23/14 3:24pm

I like your logic.

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 5:26pm

With logic like that, you must have gone to one of those MWC schools.

CougDogg-e-Dogg

11/23/14 3:25pm

Logic says BYU has declined significantly since leaving the MWC

Jonnyj

11/23/14 3:28pm

Nevermind, misread your post

BeardedSpock

11/23/14 3:28pm

Stick to the numbers

Jonnyj

11/23/14 3:30pm

Right, because back when we were in the MWC we only played four games

BeardedSpock

11/23/14 3:36pm

Nope, Air Force, Colo St. and othere are likely losses

Jonnyj

11/23/14 3:39pm

No way we would lose to Wyoming and New Mexico

BeardedSpock

11/23/14 3:51pm

Since going independent, BYU even loss to sad San Jose State

Jonnyj

11/23/14 4:00pm

"Sad San Jose State"?? The team that was 11-2, and ranked that year?

BeardedSpock

11/23/14 4:09pm

It's sad to lose to SJSU no matter what

Jonnyj

11/23/14 7:12pm

You are reaching.

NewMexiCoug

11/23/14 7:28pm

So you are saying BYU would have lost four more games had we played the other

CougDogg-e-Dogg

11/23/14 3:41pm

After losing to Nevada, logic says BYU could lose to any MWC team

Jonnyj

11/23/14 3:43pm

You are either a Dairy yewt fan or a Suck Dogg State fan.

CougDogg-e-Dogg

11/23/14 3:50pm

The evidence implies BYU may not be good enough for the MWC any more

Jonnyj

11/23/14 3:52pm

So are you a Dairy Yewt or an Aztec yewt?

CougDogg-e-Dogg

11/23/14 3:55pm

It's time BYU fans admit they aren't very good at football

Jonnyj

11/23/14 3:59pm

What "fans" are good at football?

BYUFam1

11/23/14 4:37pm

Well to be honest, I am pretty good

thecelloguy

11/23/14 6:00pm

We had one down year against the MWC. BYU will be back. The MWC will continue

CougDogg-e-Dogg

11/23/14 4:06pm

1-3 is an incomplete statement, kind of like giving out final grades at midterms

BeardedSpock

11/23/14 3:56pm

Unknowable. But thanks for that.

Iman23

11/23/14 3:41pm

Utah is about 3 plays away from being 1-7 this year. I'm glad you joined CB

Iman23

11/23/14 3:44pm

Please stick to BYU's record

Jonnyj

11/23/14 3:50pm

Utah is awesome...if you thought high school was awesome. And gymnastics.

Iman23

11/23/14 3:53pm

But they won

AxelDC

11/23/14 6:58pm

By obvious trolls logic, we would have gone undefeated in the Mountain Worst

CougDogg-e-Dogg

11/23/14 3:53pm

That's the whole point, BYU is on a steady decline

Jonnyj

11/23/14 3:57pm

You may not know this, but 2013, the year we didn't lose a single game to a

CougDogg-e-Dogg

11/23/14 4:00pm

BYU is 10-6 against MWC teams since going independent

BeardedSpock

11/23/14 4:03pm

Before this really bad year, we were 9-3 against them. If we hadn't given the

CougDogg-e-Dogg

11/23/14 4:17pm

And the injuries to key guys likely had nothing to do with the decline either

CougarBacker

11/23/14 4:43pm

I don't think Utah has ever beat BSU....😀

BYU4eVeR

11/23/14 4:48pm

This thread is about the MWC, but BYU fans can't think of anything else but UU

You do realize that no one outside the wasatch thinks those are quality opponent

schofim

11/23/14 6:28pm

You need to extrapolate out. I get 6-6

AxelDC

11/23/14 6:57pm

What's funny is Crowton had a better MWC record the year he was fired. 5-3

byutx

11/23/14 6:57pm

So we lost to 2 of their 3 best teams and a middle team.

Blugar

11/23/14 7:24pm

Which puts BYU at the bottom

Jonnyj

11/23/14 7:25pm

Poor logic.

NewMexiCoug

11/23/14 7:28pm

When you lose to the top and the middle, there's only one place left to go

Jonnyj

11/23/14 7:39pm

BYU's current RPI is 53. CSU = 21, BSU = 24, USU = 38.

NewMexiCoug

11/23/14 7:39pm

1-3 is only number that means didly squat

Jonnyj

11/23/14 7:43pm

Then keep it at 1-3 and quit extrapolating.

NewMexiCoug

11/23/14 7:44pm

And BYU's Schedule
