Just look at how crappy of a bball program oregon has year in and year out (although with their new stadium and their money and newfound fame its just a matter of time)

Great post

BYU used to close winnable games.

SpiffCoug

The BIG difference with 2012 close games:

Indy Coug

1/28/13 8:11am

So, you are admitting that Utah was a better team in 2012....Nice.

QBfactoryclosed

1/28/13 9:50am

Indy, you have to admit that with an average offense we would win 4 of those.

Taullis

1/28/13 10:48am

BYU's offense was exactly that. Average. BYU was #60 in total offense in 2012

QBfactoryclosed

1/28/13 1:39pm

it wasn't average for BYU and I'm guessing that's what he meant....

icecougar

Yup

Taullis

Utah has their own issues and yes, a big part of that may well be coaching

QBfactoryclosed

A kicker would have helped a lot in 2012

TexasCoug

I only see a 1 year anomaly in your timeline. Don't know if that classifies as

cougarick

Good qbs win close games.

cougarstolz

1/28/13 8:34am

Nelson was 2-0 in close games in 2011

Indy Coug

1/28/13 8:38am

Typically, good qbs will win the close games.

cougarstolz

1/28/13 9:04am

Detmer was only 3-2-2 in close games.

Indy Coug

1/28/13 9:12am

Precisely.

BurbankCoug

When was the last time we beat them again?

Jeremy

1/28/13 8:30am

My fear is the same would happen to us if we went Big time as well

JEStout62

That would be the elephant in the room for BYU

Bonoman

If they accomplish their goal of killing off BYU sports

Ruby Soho

I don't see this happening, but I hate Utah for trying this.

CougarPilot

1/28/13 9:25am

It's happening. How many PAC 12 games does BYU currently have scheduled?

Ruby Soho

1/28/13 9:34am

Recruiting is about where it has typically been.

UCB Coug

1/28/13 9:48am

So, because recruiting has always been pathetic, it will always be pathetic?

Ruby Soho

1/28/13 9:51am

sorry, but yes, probably, relatively speaking

Utah has a chance to be a decent program.

UCB Coug

1/28/13 9:24am

Agree. They were tied for 6th in FB their first year and played UCLA and OSU

Illegal Jimmergrant

1/28/13 9:45am

Why I disagree.

TexasCoug

1/28/13 9:56am

They have plenty to sell

UCB Coug

1/28/13 10:12am

Arizona has never been to a Rose Bowl.

TexasCoug

1/28/13 10:19am

Yes, I got confused by their Fiesta Bowl appearance.

UCB Coug

1/28/13 10:49am

Disagree. BYU has a brand. Utah really doesn't

TexasCoug

1/28/13 10:58am

Look, I don't like the Utes and I really, really, really want them to lose every

Illegal Jimmergrant

1/28/13 11:11am

And the Clippers are better than the Lakers...but they are second fiddle

TexasCoug

1/28/13 11:16am

Your hatred for the U distorts your view.

Illegal Jimmergrant

1/28/13 11:41am

You completely miss the point.

TexasCoug

1/28/13 12:00pm

What would make me happy as a Ute fan:

jt04

1/28/13 10:07am

Keep doing what they've been doing?

Illegal Jimmergrant

1/28/13 11:01am

I'm thoroughly convinced that collectively here on CB, Utah is so in our heads.

RebelScum

1/28/13 9:54am

Lol. And BYU is Utah's ugly little sister, covered in acne, that sits at home

jt04

1/28/13 10:10am

So, her mom and sister are Ute co-ed's??

BE-WHY-YOU

1/28/13 10:18am

Honestly, as long as they keep beating BYU. . .

CosmoK

1/28/13 10:19am

Utah wants out because of this thread. If they lose, it hurts locally and

jt04

1/28/13 10:23am

Beating BYU hides Utah's Suckiness (details within).

CosmoK

1/28/13 10:39am

Too early to tell.

Downtown

Lack of BYU Rivalry will kill their program faster

Oregon is definitely not crappy in basketball. Pay attention

youngster

1/28/13 11:05am

I have, up until this season they have been garbage

doubled1981

1/28/13 11:15am

Watch and learn. BYU -- be careful what you wish for

ilnati

1/28/13 11:39am

That is why BYU needs to show we can win big games before we try to get into

pappabear246

something doesn't add up...
