I was actually pleased that he DID throw some of those away.

A week earlier against Cal he would've taken the sack trying to extend the play. Or thrown an int trying to extend the drive. I was super happy that he didn't take points off the board by doing either and kept BYU in FG range.

Imagine a world where Wisconsin hits that FG.

No.

Wisconsin makes the field goal, but that doesn't give them the win. An O/T win

In that imaginary world, Tanner could have thrown the winning TD pass ...

BYU already "benched" several players between the Cal and Wisconsin games

Indy Coug

9/19/18 10:19am

If we are imagining, then I am imagining that we also beat Cal

Carnac

Tanner would then end the game with 4 -5 TDs

Imagine a world where Holker actually makes that catch and we aren't even

If Holker caught that pass I still pass on Mangum.

I guess if you can prove to me that Wilson, Hall, or Cirtchlow

Imagine Wilson replaced Mangum in the Wisconsin game

This is what would have happened

I thought he meant Marc Wilson, and as a certified Marc Wilson Fan Club member,

It is called the last 14 games where Bushman ran the route. I know he was

Can't compare us to Bama. If we had Tagovailoa, he'd be starting right now.

Josef K

Not a sure thing, It would depend on how he reads the jet sweep

USMCdad

9/19/18 10:35am

If the defense played worse, we'd want Tanner's head right now.

mudpupper

9/19/18 10:26am

Exactly.

SLC-Warrior

9/19/18 10:30am

We'd want Tanner's head for the O not putting up more than 24 on WISCONSIN?

GOR

Remind me how much we scored against Wisconsin last year?

panguitch

9/19/18 11:36am

6 last year. 24 this year. I'll take it.

GOR

We have 2 wins. Just stick with TM for now

In that world...

Go back and watch the game. Tanner won that

Cougar Rage

9/19/18 10:32am

Don't want him benched, but he also had an open guy at the sticks on that play

fulano

on the wide side of the field...going away...with a defender playing it short...

MormonThug

*in front of the sticks. Likely would have been 4th anyway. High risk/low reward

SUAVO

9/19/18 11:28am

Orrrr maybe a better QB actually completes a pass there for a first down.

SandYFan

9/19/18 10:38am

Orrr a young quarter back throws a pick six. If we were down, Tanner tries to

Cougar Rage

9/19/18 10:48am

Yes hooray our SENIOR QB outperformed a hypothetical 18 year old

SandYFan

9/19/18 10:50am

Glad you are a "backups are always better" kind of guy

SUAVO

9/19/18 11:31am

I'm not, and there's no way you logically got that from my post.

SandYFan

9/19/18 12:12pm

I actually thought he panicked and threw it away to quickly

I was actually pleased that he DID throw some of those away.

Eddie

9/19/18 11:36am

Too often Wisconsin had our pass plays read and had Tanner rapidly backpedaling

jre85

9/19/18 11:46am

Yep, same. Though he missed wide open back couple times.

MatthiasG

9/19/18 3:01pm

There was a great backup available with different skills for Alabama

Belboz

9/19/18 10:35am

LOL. BYU just upset the #6 team in the nation and you want to bench the QB?!

FrankenCoug

9/19/18 10:37am

Yeah I am not superstitious. Just because we won doesn't mean he played well.

SLC-Warrior

9/19/18 10:45am

I think that is the WHOLE POINT, isn't it?

Eddie

9/19/18 11:00am

This kind of thing is such a waste of time...

Refugee

9/19/18 10:38am

A couple times he threw the ball away instead of taking a sack. Secured the FG!

Mr. Scoobs

You're saying that our coaches made a bad decision based on fear?

Wait. You're going with the "I know you are, but what am I" defense?
