I don't due to Taysom and Mangum

Taysom was healthy and rolling into USU. That all changed in Q2. The air went out of hte program for the next 4+ weeks.

This year, BYU has kept it going with a freshman back up QB, which shows depth. And BYU is getting respect for it. And playing well against tough programs.

Plus, the team did not pancake emotionally this year like last year. So it feels totally different.

This game against Michigan is the biggest game BYU has had in years.

Or at least the biggest in a week

Disagree. Last week's game was the biggest in years.

We lost and still remained fairly relevant.That won't happen if we lose tomorrow

spugeddy24

But we had more to gain last week than we do this week

We still maintain NY6 with a win tomorrow. We didn't lose that last week.

Playoff was NOT a longshot if we went undefeated. Face it, you're OP is just

The ceiling was higher last week. The floor is much lower this week.

And the floor is what scares me. A NY6 bowl would still be huge.

Agreed. This still has the potential to be a very special season.

Fair point. It's like TNT's Pinball Arcade posts. Completely ignored now

Eh, the situation is similar, though not identical to our week 4 last year v USU

USU Was week 5 last year, and it is very different this time.

9/25/15 10:07am

You're right about the week

Biggest game as an Indy for sure. A win validates the previous 3 games.

9/25/15 10:06am

By that logic, Wagner will be the biggest game after we pay Michigan...

It would be if we lost.

You are only comparing the downsides to each game, not the upsides. Last week

Kerbouchard

This exactly.

Exactly! Last week's game was WAY bigger.

Our guys get up an practice at 6am, a 10 am start time shouldn't be an issue.

If anything, this should be an advantage for BYU

I'm also concerned about the travel...combined with 3 nail biters in a row.

I think it is the best chance BYU has to solidify

9/25/15 10:05am

Yup, we will lose all attention with a loss tomorrow.

9/25/15 10:05am

Nope, last week's game was bigger. You guys are out to lunch! Seriously?

Kerbouchard

9/25/15 2:44pm

You folks out west forget that most people don't respect the PAC

I'd say equal to the Wisconsin game 2 years ago

From here on out in a sense every game is the biggest...

I think a lot will depend on how much better recruiting gets...BYU's weakness

It's a big one, but only about #3 thus far this season. We're not Utah.

And yet, Nebraska and Boise were bigger. Without those wins, nobody would
