Nope, lots of people hop on and off the bandwagon all the time, and for

different reasons. Some hate the coaches, some hate the players, some want to root for a team that currently is doing better. Some people don't really know what they want, so they waffle around in their fandom. Some people are going through tough times in their personal lives and don't want to deal with the drama of a team that sometimes struggles.

Am I the only one who feels it very difficult to be a BYU footbal fan these days

Why? Based on comparison to the Utes? What's your reasoning?

Flippy

10/5/15 9:54am

Why?

bushy7

10/5/15 9:54am

Probably.

No. You're not. It's not as fun as it once was. Zero personality with this

pink22

Not as fun?

bushy7

10/5/15 10:01am

But who are we??? What is our identity? We've lost that.

pink22

10/5/15 10:18am

In what ways have we lost our identity?

bushy7

10/5/15 11:03am

When you played BYU in the 80s you knew we threw the ball a lot. Quarterback U.

What was your opinion of Lavell in the 90's when most teams were running west

Littlerich

10/5/15 10:07am

The 90's saw...

10/5/15 10:16am

The success, sans the heismann and #5 ranking is very similar during Bronco's

Littlerich

10/5/15 10:18am

See this link

Littlerich

10/5/15 10:19am

That's a real load of bull crap you are serving up there...

10/5/15 10:23am

In fairness, the Heisman winner just barely snuck into the disputed time frame.

ByuMba90

10/5/15 10:35am

Man the 90's sucked.

10/5/15 10:43am

68% winning percentage compared to a 62% winning percentage now. Yup, the 90's

ByuMba90

10/5/15 11:28am

This is what I am trying to say: BYU's win loss success is relatively the same

Littlerich

10/5/15 11:09am

You are cherry picking stats

HiLife

10/5/15 10:51am

cherry picking? LOL... yeah, ok

10/5/15 10:54am

I agree that the program was better as a whole

HiLife

10/5/15 11:14am

Bronco has been in 3 bowls that didn't even exsit in the 90's...

10/5/15 11:37am

a little bit of revisionist history there

Y05

10/5/15 11:19am

I agree that there were a lot of good wins in there

HiLife

10/5/15 11:41am

i agree with your overall premis, there were just a few errors i was pointing

Y05

10/5/15 12:13pm

Maybe, maybe not. I'm sorry I can't sympathize with you or know how to inspire

ByuMba90

10/5/15 10:03am

No, but the majority of reasons are out of BYU's control.

10/5/15 10:05am

Here's the crappy thing about this. Right now Baylor and TCU are lighting up

Flippy

10/5/15 10:10am

We need OU, TCU and BU to all split those games.

10/5/15 10:12am

Good points. Go Clemson!

Who hates the players?

TNT

10/5/15 10:09am

Did you miss Riley Nelson

BYUMizzou

10/5/15 10:13am

So folks hated Riley or they hated how the coaches used him?

TNT

10/5/15 10:15am

At the time they hated Riley. They also hated that he kept telling the coaches

John Doe

10/5/15 10:33am

lots of people hated riley

fattycoug

10/5/15 10:40am

TNT. Of course, TNT hates everybody, so that's a bad example.

John Doe

10/5/15 10:15am

That's a lie! He loves super attractive women

TNT

10/5/15 10:15am

But he hates how they keep calling the cops when TNT gets with 100 yards.

Crowton days were much worse.

You have short term memory issues..or you fail to enjoy hail mary wins. Not sure

HarlemCoug

try going through a whole season without reading CB. I bet things get better.

Cougarclaw

10/5/15 10:24am

the first two weeks were some of the most exciting weeks in BYU football history

93 cougar

10/5/15 10:39am

I'd even throw a week 3 loss in there.

Winning

10/5/15 10:58am

Agree on all points. Week 4 was the cliff

TNT

The only thing about the program that I struggle with is

As sad as it is to say and don't let any yewt fans see this. 1984 never happens

Cougz19

Near impossible for 90% of P5 teams as well

Jacob

10/5/15 6:57pm

Amen! If fans new better they'd be getting paid for it.

NAFUYB

10/5/15 12:42pm

I love BYU there are alot of very uneducated fans that are very difficult to be

Cougz19

YES. You are the only one...because true BYU fans aren't flaky.
