POLL: Most painful BYU close loss to a "power" program?

CaliWG

Washington '96.

Although the Arizona and BC losses in '06 are close if you put them together.

specsauce

5/24/16 10:35am

A win in either of those and byu probably gets a bcs bowl.

cougaman

BYU never got closer than 10 points in the 4th Quarter

CaliWG

5/24/16 10:36am

Except that BYU dominated that game statistically

Ad nauseum

5/24/16 11:47am

It doesn't look like it.

Blue Cat

Yep

Utah last year.

utahs not a "power" program..

CoachSpeak

5/24/16 11:33am

they're more power than we are...

Pretorian

5/24/16 12:38pm

With 3 conference titles in 60 years? Umm...ok

Ad nauseum

5/24/16 1:13pm

This is pure spin. Conference titles aren't the end all

TFL

5/24/16 4:08pm

Actually, being in a lesser conference it is EVERYTHING.

Ad nauseum

5/24/16 11:21pm

No, top 5 finishes are everything

TFL

5/25/16 12:16am

How many more times in a row do they need to beat us for you to admit it?

Pretorian

5/24/16 7:18pm

Stop with the "us" bit. You are not a BYU fan.

Ad nauseum

5/24/16 11:22pm

What does that even mean?

CoachSpeak

5/24/16 1:39pm

It means they're better than us right now

Pretorian

5/24/16 7:21pm

That doesn't make them...

CoachSpeak

5/25/16 7:29pm

They are in a power conference.

Ohio State '93 was ridiculous. Game winning TD hit our WR in the chest.

tassell

5/24/16 10:38am

it would have been the game tying TD

BigYfan

5/24/16 10:40am

Fair enough. It would have been a win for me.

tassell

5/24/16 10:42am

Like ND'S last undefeated team before NC game that missed hoffman wide open

CarolinaCoug

5/24/16 10:40am

Ugh, I was at that game and stood up like it was a sure TD... sad face

BYU lost that game by 3, and led for most of it

ldssdl

You're right, I was thinking about 2013... I forgot about that one!

Pretorian

5/24/16 12:53pm

Invited in to watch the 4th quarter of this game by the members we lived with in

specsauce

5/24/16 10:42am

Yup. For as memorable as some of the Holiday Bowl wins were

BYU at Oregon - 1990. BYU was ranked #4 at the time.

I was at that game, and it did hurt bad to lose it

Dug up our turf and took back to FL spade-full to plant in their graveyard

Onside Schtick

5/24/16 10:57am

they do that for every road win

Mayor of Cougartown

5/24/16 10:59am

No, they don't

Ad nauseum

5/24/16 11:48am

That was kind of a compliment. They only do that for wins against ranked road opponents.

I think that was George, not pitta. But yeah that was the worst.

Too slow:(

Perhaps it is because the memory is still pretty fresh but that UCLA loss was a

cougar_chick1

5/24/16 10:59am

I still feel like Matt Berry would have won the USC game if he didn't go out

Hambone

5/24/16 11:00am

Yeah, but pretty sure he broke his hand the next week against New Mexico.

Six Foot Seven

5/24/16 11:02am

Was that the game at USC? I really thought BYU was going to pull that one out.

CariocaCoug

5/24/16 11:26am

Matt Berry didn't go out! That was the New Mexico game where he broke his hand

A win vs Baylor in 1983 would have given us back to back undefeated seasons.

BYU had no business losing to UVA in 2013 - new offense or not.

SpiffCoug

5/24/16 11:41am

Taysom was not very aggressive in that game

CaliWG

5/24/16 11:43am

Yeah but that one win wouldn't have dramatically changed the season outcome

gmj81

5/24/16 11:59am

2011 vs. Texas

jambocoug

5/24/16 12:23pm

I feel like a win over UCLA last year would have changed the whole season.

IntelCougar

5/24/16 12:31pm

I completely agree. We get that W we at least pull off the Mizzu or Utah game
