you don't now what word to use when it applies. Our SOS is mediocre, not crappy. Much like most of our MWC schedules.

Big Cougarboard myth: BYU had a terrible schedule.

Zach

11/23/14 8:17am

There is no excuse for losing those 4 in a row, especially how they lost.

slowhiteguy

11/23/14 8:20am

Injuries. Sorry, but it's the cold truth: devastating morale destroying

Zach

11/23/14 8:22am

USU was having their way with BYU pre injury. BYU blew two score leads

slowhiteguy

11/23/14 8:29am

BSU has 9 wins already, not mediocre.

Zach

11/23/14 8:32am

They are nothing special. Being blown out by them is embarrassing.

slowhiteguy

11/23/14 8:34am

They will win at least 10 games.

Zach

11/23/14 8:35am

BSU is the most embarrassing out of the 4 to me

workindev

By "Having their way"

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 11:57am

BYU couldn't stop them and last I checked, Taysom doesn't play defense.

slowhiteguy

11/23/14 12:59pm

Thats a prety simplistic way to look at it

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 1:07pm

you're definitely the expert on simplistic outlooks; how abt an honest one

BYUtiful

11/23/14 1:18pm

I am an expert in spotting others simplistic comments.

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 5:07pm

No, they are worse than mediocre

AxelDC

11/23/14 6:47pm

Let me guess

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 6:58pm

I'm sure you think you're coming off as clever; let me disabuse you of that

BYUtiful

11/23/14 9:47pm

You think "our schedule sucks", and "we suck"

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 10:14pm

sorry, but not what i said; you do, however, earn the reading fail trophy

BYUtiful

11/24/14 7:35am

Its exactly what you said.

PolarisPrime

11/24/14 12:56pm

link, please?

BYUtiful

11/24/14 1:27pm

My bad

PolarisPrime

11/24/14 5:10pm

Injuries could explain why we got blown out by USU and BSU.

Beard Card

11/23/14 8:33am

Very true; however, it's a waste of time

vaquero

prediction: when byu loses to an underrated cal team

BYUtiful

11/23/14 1:25pm

Explain USU'S success with 10 starters out with season ending injuries...

Smoke Monster

11/24/14 1:03pm

Success? Not sure I would define their season as sucessfull.

PolarisPrime

11/24/14 5:10pm

The Boise State game was the kicker

AxelDC

11/23/14 10:05am

I'd call it an average schedule, 7/12 were over .500. Seems pretty avg. to me

Jam Master J

11/23/14 8:20am

When's the last time that happened to BYU?

Zach

11/23/14 8:21am

Last year

Blue Cat

11/23/14 8:24am

Sweet, we were a good team.

Zach

11/23/14 8:25am

I know you had a relative or something play for Bronco, probably a walk on,

slowhiteguy

11/23/14 8:31am

What is not objective in my OP?

Zach

11/23/14 8:33am

Not just the OP, every post. Look, I was driving the bronco bus for about 6

slowhiteguy

11/23/14 8:37am

get a clue. sos#76. that's not good buddy.

2013 Sagarin SOS #38. 2014 SOS #76.

Everymancoug

11/23/14 8:35am

Yep. A good schedule is top-50. A Great schedule is top-25 SOS.

lawboy

11/23/14 8:59am

It was a relatively weak schedule and a horrible home schedule.

Playing a bunch of barely bowl eligible teams

CasualFan

11/23/14 9:08am

Overall our schedule wasn't terrible, but it wasn't good enough to justify

Harrison0Yfan

11/23/14 9:46am

Bowl eligible = .500 team

AxelDC

11/23/14 10:06am

SOS=76. You are clueless.

Gerald-DeGroot

11/23/14 10:27am

Looks like a Lavell-era WAC schedule

Modiolus

11/23/14 10:36am

SOS, BYU=76, BSU=75, CSU=108. Just was curious how our terrible schedule would

Cougar8Duck

11/23/14 10:41am

2-4 against current bowl teams

BYUheaven

11/23/14 10:52am

#97 out of 128 - you're on to sthg

BYUtiful

11/23/14 11:15am

Alabama is #95 using that metric.

Blue Cat

11/23/14 11:19am

yeah, and they've won their games, and that doesn't validate byu's schedule

BYUtiful

11/23/14 12:09pm

RE: yeah, and they've won all their games, and that doesn't validate byu's

Blue Cat

11/23/14 2:30pm

We should have beat UCF and UNR. USU and BSU ambushed us.

fulano

11/23/14 11:38am

Not even Bronco shares your nauseating optimism for this year.

Countcougula

11/23/14 11:55am

The season being dissapointing and the schedule being bad

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 12:12pm

Not in this case.

Countcougula

11/23/14 3:06pm

The biggest problem with your opinion

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 5:10pm

We've looked bad with an easy schedule.

Countcougula

11/23/14 5:46pm

We did not have tougher shcedules in the WAC

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 7:00pm

That's not what I said and it's not even the point.

Countcougula

11/23/14 7:51pm

Your right, I went off on a tangent. You said I was name dropping...

PolarisPrime

11/24/14 12:15am

I know it's your style to call people names like "delusional" without any facts

UNLVcougar

11/23/14 8:09pm

I know its your lack of style to make things up

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 10:19pm

I think you are having some struggles with your math, so let me help you out.

UNLVcougar

11/23/14 11:52pm

I didnt cherry pick

PolarisPrime

11/24/14 12:12am

You have a very difficult time staying on point.

UNLVcougar

11/24/14 7:03am

Wow. I dont think you read what I posted.

PolarisPrime

11/24/14 12:57pm

So you actually don't have data to back up your claim? Just as I thought.

UNLVcougar

11/24/14 3:38pm

It's the same lame story with Polaris not so Prime.

BYU DUDE 1984

11/24/14 4:41pm

Yes, this was a weak schedule going into 2014

Heinz57

11/23/14 5:58pm

I can hardly laugh hard enough

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 7:02pm

You speak from someone that has no clue about the game

Heinz57

11/23/14 8:35pm

So you dont have a point?

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 10:21pm

The funny thing is

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 10:24pm

Sagarin rating SOS as of this week: 76. Bottom half of CFB schedules = crappy.

UNLVcougar

11/23/14 7:40pm

See - you misuse the term mediocre so much

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 10:26pm

Actually, I never used the word "mediocre" in my post, but it doesn't suprise

UNLVcougar

11/23/14 11:31pm

Wow... That was hard

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 11:46pm

Let's hang our hat on going 0-4 in October against teams that "do not suck."

ataylor

11/23/14 1:42pm

Everything is awesome!

AxelDC

11/23/14 3:36pm

7 Bowl eligible opponents = better than MWC schedule

Coogar2

11/23/14 4:19pm

BYU lost to 3 MWC teams

AxelDC

11/23/14 4:41pm

Called hindsight

Heinz57

11/23/14 5:57pm

I dont think hindsight it the right word.

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 7:07pm

Again, paper tiger....

Heinz57

11/23/14 8:36pm

Ummm... A paper tiger indicates a weak argument

PolarisPrime

11/23/14 10:23pm

NBD. 78/128 teams will go to bowls this year
