"we are the most miserable 9-3 fan base in the country." Ain't that the truth

Kinda silly to compare fans of a 9-3 team in the Pac12 or SEC to fans of a

We are in a tight battle for that title with LSU fans (up to yesterday)

Of course Yewts are supportive. They WANT Bronco to be coach so Yewtah can

The Schedule did look very tough pre-season. Nearly nearly every team was

No. He's trying to pat Bronco on the back for going 9-3 against those teams.

BYU should have beat Missouri. That loss still hurts.

HighHorse

11/29/15 8:47am

We're good enough to be 11-1. Should have beat UCLA and Mizzou.

That's asking a lot.

We get it. You're a glass half empty guy.

Pointing out both sides of the one-sided argument he made makes me

BYU is a couple scores away from being 11-1 yet you point out that we were

HighHorse

11/29/15 8:17pm

So are you denying that BYU wasn't just as close to being 7-5 as to 11-1?

garyfan

11/29/15 8:22pm

What you call luck, I call talent. I'm a glass half full fellow.

HighHorse

You can call it whatever you like.

Holy crap, really? Do you NOT get it? The projected difficulty of the schedule

We went 2-3 in the games most people thought were going to be our toughest.

Countcougula

11/29/15 6:56am

2-3 isn't nearly good enough to be in any discussion re national relevance.

TeeKaa

11/29/15 8:12am

Exactly. And if we do this next year, it will be a disaster.

Bronco still has no wins against a team that will finish ranked, for his career.
