It’s ok to have low expectations but if you can’t enjoy the ride along the way

You’re doing it wrong.

Life is full of ups and downs, the people who refuse to enjoy the ups are depressed and no fun to be around

The whining the last several days is just ridiculous

But if Tanner was just a better QB, imagine the possibilities!

I can't decide if this is a parody of an idiot post, or an actual idiot post.

Clark Addison

Either way

Haha it was a joke

There are serious deficiencies, but if you aren’t enjoying this

Serious deficiencies?

GOR

9/22/18 10:41pm

QB and WR group are well below average. Trenches are very good and

WizeGuise

This is exactly what he meant.

BenTheBoss

9/22/18 10:44pm

And I agreed with him. We can be objective and still appreciate the overall

Oh sorry didn’t see your original post

Byus offense is exceeding expectations. One of the worst offenses in cfb

BYU '80

I'd call it a serious deficiency if

I feel like it hasn't registered with a lot of people here that this is a run

If BYU beats Washington, Kalani should get a bronze statue cast immediately and placed in the center of campus

Indy Coug

9/22/18 10:43pm

Nah. I predicted 2-2. 1-3 was overly dramatic.

spugeddy24

9/22/18 10:40pm

The FPI had BYU with a 20% or lower chance in each of their first three games

Indy Coug

9/22/18 10:41pm

Don’t care about the FPI. I make my own predictions.

spugeddy24

9/22/18 10:43pm

Yeah but you’re not as rational.

Indy Coug

9/22/18 10:44pm

But I was correct.

spugeddy24

9/22/18 10:45pm

Um. No you weren't

MaxxPower

9/22/18 10:48pm

I was correct that they wouldn’t start 1-3 like many thought.

spugeddy24

LOL, Love the righteous indignation.

LEHI cougar

9/22/18 10:41pm

He's right, though.

LiveCoug

9/22/18 10:42pm

I find the self-righteous lecturing just as unappealing as the whiners.

LEHI cougar

9/22/18 10:45pm

Do you have a counter argument or are you just offended?

che flaco

9/22/18 10:47pm

Where did I say I was offended? And I put my thoughts in the other above post

LEHI cougar

Lol, continue in your fussy unicorn world

Pretorian

Good post

acougfan

9/22/18 10:43pm

Yup, even Blue googled fans were predicting 2-2 at best.

akmewg

9/22/18 10:43pm

Not whining, just being realistic.

a priori

9/22/18 10:43pm

Literally no one thinks we have it all figured out. Not even close.

LiveCoug

9/22/18 10:48pm

Sure--but do you think that the team has it figured out to the tune of a top 25

a priori

9/22/18 10:51pm

How about for the time being? That's really how the voting works. It's season

Ash

9/22/18 10:59pm

That's what I'm saying. I see two okay games, one huge dude, and one outlier.

a priori

9/22/18 11:01pm

Have you read the friggin' board??? No one really thinks so. Just enjoy it!!

Clark Addison

9/22/18 11:01pm

I am enjoying it.

a priori

9/22/18 11:02pm

I can only speak for myself. I don't honestly think we are, but am ecstatic that we are there

Clark Addison

9/22/18 11:09pm

Well, Indy still thinks that Crowton has if figured out and so I wouldn't be

slowhiteguy

9/23/18 6:25am

But the fact is, that ONE win is something that our program has only

che flaco

9/22/18 10:49pm

I enjoyed the win more because it was completely unexpected.

a priori

9/22/18 10:54pm

If I was that negative and couldn't see any improvement from last year, I'd

Pretorian

The dline has improved, the dbs have imp, the RBs have improved, the o-line has improved, the kicking game has improved

SDcookie

9/22/18 10:44pm

We’re winning but I maintain our weakness is our QB’s limited game abilities.

jpal1397

9/22/18 10:45pm

This is exactly how I’ve been feeling reading through the board you’d think we’r

akmewg

Winning cures a lot of ills. Just win baby win!

jpal1397

That’s the thing, apparently it doesn’t.

I’ve loved the win last week. I love that we are 3-1.

Sure it’s year one on a new system, without a significant increase talent from

akmewg

How does the offense rank so far this year?

AD4

9/22/18 11:06pm

Yeah, you can be happy about where we are while still trying to stay measured

Resurgens

At least it's on field stuff. It's where it should be. We

Personally, I thought the program was in deep, deep trouble and had my doubts it

dreamlvr

9/22/18 11:22pm

Agreed, I’m happy with where we are at this year. Some people complain just to complain. What a miserable way to go

Bleedblue84

9/22/18 11:35pm

CB isn’t happy unless it’s whining...

Are you ever not a sanctimonious, self righteous, condescencing blow hard?

Indy’s favorite shtick. Lecturing other fans.
