It took a severely banged up OK oline to get that win. The reason our first looked so good is because they couldn't pass protect.

That doesn't take anything away from the win. Still an awesome win.

LSU missing key star players for the BYU Game is frustrating to me

Every team has injuries or issues. Welcome to sports. Still gotta win.

Well, BYU is also missing a star player

cougarmanguy

8/18/17 9:14am

They have 40 future NFL players on that team. No excuses.

Preppy

8/18/17 9:14am

Including 33 just on the defensive side of the ball. King of y not well informed

Big Daddy D

8/18/17 9:16am

Actually, I am also aware their kicker will be a first round pick as a safety

King of Y

8/18/17 9:59am

Totally agree. All that matters is the win.

The first round of next year's draft will consist exclusively of LSU defenders.

This is really an exagerration. He only said 20 NFLers for the future.

Well, Francis is out. So now we have an excuse too.

NachoCougar

Francis Bernard =/= Arden key

formerly utesplease

8/18/17 9:42am

Not nationally, but he's still an important player as Key was for LSU

BrutustheBrash

I'd be happy with a win (bummer about your frustration, though)

ColoSpgs

Meh, a win over LSU is a big win. No matter what.

boscatar

8/18/17 9:18am

Agreed. But arrogant P5 teams can't have it both ways

Borg

8/18/17 9:23am

If you're worried about anything (assuming BYU wins) it should be that LSU

Preppy

8/18/17 9:25am

It's one thing if a team comes in with a depleted roster. It's much different

Agree. Bugs me when BYU fans cheer another team's injury. Beat em at their best!

CharlottesvilleCoug

Hopefully no one on CB is celebrating an injury

Preppy

8/18/17 9:41am

I havent seen anyone celebrate his injury. I am glad, however

It seems like a lot of our big games are played against teams having down yr

buffgato

Do you also remember that BYU beat Oklahoma without Harvey Unga?

Mister P

8/18/17 9:37am

Which should make the win more impressive.

King of Y

8/18/17 9:58am

But Oklahoma was down their star TE Gresham. Where does that put you now?

Pimpin4Paradise

8/18/17 10:07am

There were other players missing for BYU also. I think there was a key OL that

Win vs. Team at Full Strength > Win vs. Team w/ Key Injuries

King of Y

8/18/17 10:05am

Winning vs. team with key injuries >>>>> losing to team at full strength

Blue Cat

Mostly about the name you beat.

D.T. Survivor

8/18/17 10:17am

That seems like just looking for something to be frustrated about.

Gil Buckman

8/18/17 10:22am

Small point, but BYU beat OU in Dallas @ Jerry World

Thug Mormons

8/18/17 10:49am

Oops, Corrected. I was thinking of LSU and Houston. My frustration is flustering

King of Y

8/18/17 11:58am

Do you like losing against the very best too? I will take any advantage we can get

TyPower2016

You have weird worries.

CougaRR4L

"LSU has every reason they should win this game." And if they don't

BYU beat Oklahoma in Dallas.

Corrected. Thanks.

That "rock solid defense" got absolutely lit up two weeks later against FSU to

Congratulations! You've found the weirdest possible thing to be frustrated about with regard to the upcoming season!

If I'm reading this right, this frustration has more to do with commentary than

buffgato

8/18/17 2:01pm

I get it, but blackshirts has it right (a few posts below). A win over LSU would be huge, and it wouldn't be tainted

Roko's Basilisk

Yes you are reading it right. Thank you for your perception. I am tired of *

King of Y

8/18/17 3:12pm

Unfortunately, G5 teams do not get the benefit of the doubt regardless.

Gil Buckman

8/18/17 3:24pm

BYU was given huge respect for winning that game.

You really shouldn't give a poop because

Lip Gallagher

You must have missed the memo about the important guy we just lost.

Harrison0Yfan

8/18/17 2:03pm

Blah, Blah, Blah, you beat LSU anytime and you'll get great respect. Besides

blackshirts

8/18/17 2:22pm

When we win the game, I guarantee the media/broadcasters will point to the loss

King of Y

8/18/17 3:17pm

Losing Bradford was a big loss on the season for OK but make no mistake

icecougar

By wouldn't have beat Oklahoma at full strength.

Backcountry

We don't know that...

Borg

That is exactly what I am talking about

King of Y

8/18/17 6:28pm

Do you not remember that game?
