Just how bad was the Missouri loss? Consider:

One of the worst losses of the Bronco era IMO

This is correct.

Sadly, I don't think it even cracks the top 10...

Complete embarrassment but hey we're 9-3

kotacoug

11/29/15 9:57pm

We are 9-3 because we play different competition than the teams we compare...

Plus it shut down what would be a long winning streak

The WR for Mizzou made tough catches they have not made in any other game

Littlerich

11/29/15 9:58pm

Yep, the controversy on campus helped the Tigers catch lightning for one game

SpiffCoug

that is exactly what I said

Littlerich

11/29/15 10:09pm

Haha! There is ALWAYS that guy that has a career day against us.

kotacoug

11/29/15 9:59pm

Hah. Their WR made tough catches? That explains it all. One of the worst losses

Zak

11/29/15 10:01pm

I admitted the team played horribly, but Mizzou made tough plays they hadn't in

Littlerich

11/29/15 10:10pm

You mean the guy that caught the smash route that they ran about 8 times with

whoneedscorners?

11/29/15 10:20pm

That was so embarrassing. Nobody within 7 yards of the WR.

3rd down conversions... yeesh...

This was such a stupid loss. Still irritated by it.

Yep. Can't get over that loss. Season would look so much better and BYU would be

Is it possible in ANY scenario considered in the known universe

TeeKaa

Still don't get why we didn't stick with the run?

This was just a terrible loss. Our defense has been terrible since the bye week.

Outside contain was our biggest issue then and all season

That said, Mizzou is 64 in Sagarin. You guys act as if they are Wagner

Colorado

11/29/15 10:09pm

I don't think Miz could beat Wagner. Only BYU can play that bad for them to win

I know the score against USU looks good...

Smoke Monster

11/29/15 10:14pm

I am not saying the defense is good, but usu had one good drive in the 2nd half

Littlerich

11/29/15 10:22pm

Defense was bad in the first half, a lot better in the second.

budYu

11/30/15 5:50am

USU was also pressing in the 2nd half...

Smoke Monster

11/30/15 8:51am

Our defense played better in the 2nd half whether uses was pressing or not

Littlerich

11/30/15 8:58am

Let's give the defense a gold star...

Smoke Monster

11/30/15 8:59am

I choose to see some positives in the game, not just dwell on negatives

Littlerich

11/30/15 9:05am

Unless you fix the negatives, they'll always be there...

Smoke Monster

11/30/15 9:10am

That is for bronco and the coaches, and clearly they fixed some negatives in the

Littlerich

11/30/15 9:12am

Fixing in the game is one thing...

Smoke Monster

11/30/15 9:23am

I love Bronco but the thought of "what could have been" if we win this game is maddening....

HarlemCoug

No doubt it was a terrible loss, the blame lies with both Bronco & Anae

Ouch!! That's all I can say.

I doubt it would look any better

This is the signature of bronco on his season. We've seen it for years.

Bluedomination

yep, we have seen it dating back to the 70's including a horrible loss to

I am not trying to tear down LaVell, just saying every coach has bad losses
