It was more than BYU being tired

It helped that Michigan got to play two cream puffs at home before the BYU game

This was the main factor along with the loss of JW, TH, and TT. Lack of Depth

My explanation of the Michigan game.

That's a great explanation

Knowing exactly why the team put up a "2" and ore importantly

There's truth there but I think there's more...

I think you're a little too high on Michigan or a little too low on BYU...

nice setiment. I agree somewhat, but the way we lost was horrific.

"horrific"? That's a pretty strong word to describe a game.
StantonMac
10/7/15 11:44am
Strong? Sure. It's also accurate.

what word would you describe that game? Abortion? anomoly? terrible? bad?
idacoug
10/7/15 12:07pm
The term 'dumpster fire' comes to mind
SouthernAZcoug
10/7/15 12:13pm
Abortion?
Cougz19
10/7/15 12:13pm
Abortion. I would definitely call it an abortion.

As football games go, it really didn't have much to redeem it.

They didn't reach 100 yds of offense until the last play of the game... So yeah

What about getting plastered after looking good for 3 games is NOT horrific?

National guys trying to create an explanation. They don't know the history

Regardless of the truth it helps with national perception

What was the excuse last year v. utah st? nevada? How about in 2013 v. virginia
SoValleyCOUG
10/7/15 11:47am
Ya. Why aren't we undefeated every year?
byu1
10/7/15 11:49am
Never expect that. Always an excuse though. It has become a trend with BYU
SoValleyCOUG
10/7/15 12:06pm
Ironic that a few years ago the rap was BYU always beat teams supposed to, but
byu1
10/7/15 12:19pm
Maybe to you, but they can pull a no show against any team.

The first couple of games you mentioned

10/7/15 12:07pm
Utah State...NO excuse...Nevada? Walk on QB that almost pulled out the game

That game, I was in the front row watching warm ups before the game. YOu could

Wasn't the score like 54-28? Yeah FSU was just better that day.
HiredGun
10/7/15 12:45pm
Sounds about right. Yes they were better. BYU was uninspired. BYU just beat Okla

Being tired doesn't excuse poor tackling, execution, Anae's play calling, etc.
MajorZeus
10/7/15 11:50am
Eisen isn't excusing BYU, he's downplaying Michigan's win.
boogers
10/7/15 11:52am
Of course it does! My guess is you are not at your best when you are exhausted.

That is more mental than physical.

10/7/15 12:29pm
Yes it does....A tired athlete is not going to be near as sharp. It will affect
deckard667
10/7/15 12:24pm
And a tired team that is not sharp will make a coach's play calling look worse..
deckard667
10/7/15 12:31pm
Are you serious? 4 games into the year and we are tired? How about Michigan
MajorZeus
10/7/15 12:47pm
Yes I am serious...They had more talent but that was probably the case with
deckard667
10/7/15 2:27pm
Dumb argument. We were so tired that we came out flat against UCONN and defense
MajorZeus
10/7/15 3:11pm
So the Michigan game (POV of the national media)

We were tenderized, but I was still impressed by Michigan

Michigan is a much better team week 4 than they were week 1...
icecougar

Yep like UConn was tired for crossing the country and starting play at 11PM
