You sound like my Dad in 1983

This is pretty much a direct quote from him after the 1983 Baylor loss:

"LaVell is great at beating the WAC, but he can't even win big games against average teams! BYU needs to fire him and get a better coach!"

Thanks for the walk down memory lane.

BYU would be a pretty average team in a P5 conference. This much is very

19-8 is a blowout? And Tennessee is 7-4, including 4-3 in the SEC. I guess they

Tennessee was 6-4 at the time that played Mizzou

That's some real investigative work there buddy. My point stands. You are

Simple math tells me that if Tennessee wins this week, they will be 8-4

Now let's not get crazy here with the projections

Almost every team loses a game they shouldn't

It seems to me that BYU loses many more of these games to unranked and average

Someone recently posted the facts and you are wrong.

Florida State in 2009 was 7-6 at the end of the year, losing to Arizona in 2006

Go look at LaVell's record while you are at it.

haven't you heard? We can't compare Bronco to Lavell anymore.

John Doe

11/25/15 8:51am

We can, but only if it works against Bronco. There is a manual

Quit desecrating lavell's name by comparing the legend to our current decent

11/25/15 11:25am

BYU will always have a hard time beating teams like Missouri, UCLA, and Michigan

11/25/15 8:19am

So you admit BYU isn't as well coached as the UCLA's, Michigan's, and Mizzou's?

He's trolling with a Strawman. Don't take it seriously.

CasualFan

11/25/15 8:26am

Really? What strawman?

11/25/15 10:21am

I don't know why some people think this is a huge "gotcha" admission? BYU is

I disagree. I think BYU can find a better HC. The excuses

TheColdHardTruth

11/25/15 8:30am

I think this is a fair point. Need to take the Jerry Sloan approach.

11/25/15 8:35am

I did not say Bronco was the absolute best coach BYU could ever find,....

ByuMba90

11/25/15 8:57am

That's a false dichotomy. There may not be another coach out there right now

btw, I'm not sure we necessarily have the same definition of "mediocrity".

TCU has achieved success because they sit in the middle of what is arguably

I'd settle for someone that at least ALWAYS coaches on par with whichever no-name coaches at San Jose State

So that is all you got out of BearsandBull's post? You have an agenda.

Sure. Those types of programs generally have more coaching talent than

Sure, we've beaten upper echelon programs in the past.

perhaps a different mindset will be needed, but beating P5 teams can be done

Only 1984 has been different, nearly every year BYU loses a game or more
