It's funny how after one week your opinions can change. It's hard to take much

Agree with bunch except

I'm just going off what I see. Yes Utah beat them week 1 but that was a

boorad

10/4/15 10:06am

You are willing to excuse other teams but not Utah...

Tokolosh

10/4/15 10:26am

Because they're Utah and this is a BYU board. What do you expect?

boorad

10/4/15 10:30am

Utah v. Mich is proof Utah can beat a team with a good defense.

CosmoK

10/4/15 11:20am

Michigan was lucky to play Utah week one Whit and the Utah staff did not know

Upanddown

10/4/15 10:50am

Michigan had the same players in week 1

Not sure I would fully go that far.

Week 5 Michigan is 10X better than Week 1 Michigan and everyone knows it

This is some sound logic.

Michigan week 12>>>>>>>Michigan week 1. Utah week 12 >>> Utah week 1.

cougaman

10/4/15 12:57pm

True. But Utah wasn't taking on a brand new coach. Obviously Michigan will

Utah and all the teams they beat are overrated...the teams BYU lost to are

RichieRich

10/4/15 10:07am

Do you not agree that Michigan is better than people thought and Oregon worse?

boorad

10/4/15 10:10am

I definitely agree with both of those things. I disagree that Utah is not a top

RichieRich

10/4/15 10:13am

Utah beat a bad Michigan team in a sloppy game week one

boorad

10/4/15 10:17am

If that's the case, I don't know if they could ever impress you.

RichieRich

10/4/15 10:22am

The funny thing is he probably thinks BYU beating Nebraska and Uconn are

k-ace

10/4/15 10:26am

I actually don't. Nebraska is looking less impressive every week.

boorad

10/4/15 10:33am

Nebraska was a great team weak one that has faltered.

Daedalus17

10/4/15 3:53pm

He does.

Gerald-DeGroot

10/4/15 12:21pm

They beat an overrated Oregon without its starting QB. Still not impressed

boorad

10/4/15 10:33am

I am sorry Utah is playing like a top 10 teams

Upanddown

10/4/15 11:03am

Oregon's starting QB played the first quarter and a half and was benched due to

lilpenny

10/4/15 11:09am

They pulled the QB because he was injured. They had audio of him telling the

Oregon QB injury was week 1. Before the MSU Oregon game 3 point MSU win

Daedalus17

10/4/15 10:06pm

Reading comprehension is not your strong point is it?

Beeker

10/5/15 9:02am

LOL if Michigan is bad what does that make BYU that got blanked by said bad team

SBJ

10/4/15 10:28am

In the post before he said Michigan is better than everyone thought. ..so...

10/4/15 10:33am

Michigan was bad in week one. Most people agree with that. Michigan in

boorad

10/4/15 10:35am

Utah also played a mistake ridden game. Play calling was vanilla & conservative

Tokolosh

10/4/15 10:38am

The most amazing coaching ever between week one and two. Or could it be that

The Dude Abides

10/4/15 10:41am

Utah is better than we are but IMO a week one win at home against a team

boorad

10/4/15 10:48am

"Most people agree with that." By "most people," do you mean half of cougarboard

lilpenny

"Bad" to "unbeatable" in 2 weeks? Your denial is embarrassing.

Good teams have a tendency to make teams look bad.

All while saying he's level headed, clearly he isn't biased

SBJ

10/4/15 10:20am

I didn't say I wasn't biased. I said I keep perspective

boorad

10/4/15 10:41am

Lol. I think you nailed it. You good with that? Seems accurate to me!

Gerald-DeGroot

10/4/15 12:20pm

I thought oregons win last night was a decent win

Josef K

10/4/15 10:13am

Cincy will be a very tough game.

RichieRich

10/4/15 10:14am

Let's not look past Cincy or ECU

JohnnyComeLately

10/4/15 10:17am

I agree on cinci. Ecu is not very good.

Josef K

10/4/15 10:28am

Explain difference between the two?

JohnnyComeLately

10/4/15 10:35am

we could easily be 3-4 after these next two games.

good news is their strength is their offense not their d and we are getting

10/4/15 10:57am

im actually worried about teams that play good defense like usu

franklyvulgar

10/4/15 11:02am

They've given up two touchdowns in four games. All against FBS schools

boorad

10/4/15 10:19am

Oregon St., UNLV and Maryland are not

Everyman

10/4/15 10:26am

Shut outs are hard to do against anyone. And aside from UNLV those aren't bad

boorad

10/4/15 10:37am

well, UCLA just proved they're not a top 10 team

mindzeYe

10/4/15 10:29am

"We have losses to 2 top ten teams". UCLA still gets credit for being a top ten

The Dude Abides

10/4/15 10:38am

I said if my predictions are correct. I think UCLA could still be a top 10 team

boorad

10/4/15 10:44am

So this really is a case of "the teams we've played are great and the teams

The Dude Abides

10/4/15 10:51am

We don't have a common opponent. Michigan at home in week one does not equal

boorad

10/4/15 11:01am

Your logic is all over the place and doesn't make any sense. I see you are

The Dude Abides

10/4/15 11:03am

I don't think my logic is all over the place at all

boorad

10/4/15 11:13am

Your logic has caused half of cb to defend utah. Make it stop for all of us.

TheismanHill1911

10/4/15 11:30am

Why did boorad POTD this?

Cheesy Gordita

10/4/15 2:09pm

Sure. I'll bite.

The Dude Abides

10/4/15 11:42am

TLDR. If you can't accept the fact that Michigan in week 1 does not equal

"Tell me where my logic doesn't make sense because I don't see it."

The Dude Abides

You haven't pointed out how my logic is wrong

You should read the post...because you are making us look

If you aren't pessimistic comparing BYU to Utah, your head is in the sand.

Urbanite

10/4/15 1:21pm

Let's not forget who was unwilling to schedule the rivalry

boorad

10/4/15 1:34pm

This dead horse again?! Do you not see why there is no point continuing...

Urbanite

10/5/15 11:30am

Lol. It is pathetic and sad that Utah wouldn't schedule their rival regardless

boorad

10/5/15 12:14pm

The good news? We'll get to see how you feel when Utah hangs 9 straight on BYU

Urbanite

10/5/15 1:13pm

I'm not scared of Utah. And with their record against us recently I don't know

boorad

10/5/15 5:16pm

I agree except ASU. Did you see any of their game last night? ASU is a scary

k-ace

10/4/15 11:14am

It has a lot more to do with Michigan than it does where the game was played

boorad

10/4/15 11:24am

How in the world could you think UCLA could still be a top ten team?

RichieRich

10/4/15 10:51am

Because they have looked very good in all their games except one. I don't expect

boorad

10/4/15 11:02am

So Utah isn't a legit top 10 team but the team

The equivalent of Ohio State losing to Virginia Tech last year

I'm not sure people understand the idea of a team being better or worse at

boorad

10/4/15 11:04am

Everyone gets that - but for some reason you are putting Michigan in their own

k-ace

10/4/15 11:16am

Yes I think that's what they did. They also have one of the best coaches in

boorad

10/4/15 11:27am

Harbaugh was also there for all of spring practice and fall camp. Not sure why

Scratch

10/4/15 12:40pm

Because you really don't know what you have until you play a real game

boorad

10/4/15 12:45pm

I think it's more that people trust the coaches' and AP poll, Vegas oddsmakers

lilpenny

10/4/15 11:16am

Michigan is not the same team that played Utah week 1. Why is it so hard to see

cougaman

10/4/15 12:59pm

No one is the same team they were week 1. Both teams improved.

lilpenny

10/4/15 1:38pm

Let's say Michigan is playing at Utah this Saturday and you have to bet

boorad

10/4/15 1:41pm

Yeah, but the one with a new coach, a new qb and a new system will have a lot

cougaman

10/4/15 2:02pm

You guys almost lost to the Aggies.

It's important to battle weak logic

Cheesy Gordita

10/4/15 4:00pm

with your logic a close loss to UCLA does not look so good right now

pappabear246

A close loss at UCLA does not look *as* good

I understand that and I dont feel the pac is as tough as you think it

ok, but UCLA I don't think will be top 10 tomorrow, or at year end. They might
