I think that you missed my point.
I'm arguing why you can't arbitrarily remove two plays from the game.

I must've watched a different game than many of you.

Defense gave up 180+ yards to their RB, that is not stellar
Littlerich
9/3/19 2:32pm
Were most of those yards without Tonga?
Acorn
9/3/19 2:38pm
The defense can't rely on Tonga to be out there every play.
Littlerich
9/3/19 2:41pm
Acorn, you can laugh, but a stellar defense doesn't hinge on one player
Littlerich
9/3/19 2:46pm
You never answered my question. You made up your own question and answered it.
Acorn

I am not sure exactly when Tonga stopped playing. Moss had 72 yards in the 1st
Littlerich

How many points did Utah score in the first half?
Acorn
9/3/19 3:12pm
They scored 3 offensive posts in the 1st half. But

Tonga is one of 11 guys. And this staff assembled the roster. Sorry, not an excuse for the poor run D.

You think BYU is the better team (link). Is that with or without Tonga?

For the life of me I can’t imagine talking crap to a 10 year old.

I stopped reading after you set 2017 as the benchmark. That is so demeaning

Basically, take away most of the things that turned the game into the game

My point is that removing those two plays make it an entirely different game.

Here’s what I don’t get. People keep saying “take away the three turnovers and it’s a close game”. Well of course!

Other than that Mrs. Lincoln how was the play?

Well, sure. We can all look at the bigger picture and realize what’s really important.

UU was favored by 6 but won by 18 (25 if they don't kneel at the 3)

So if we lost by 5, would you or this board be any different? (Nope)

If BYU lost by the point spread I'd be disapointed but not alarmed

Okay. But if "we're expected to lose" to Utah indefinitely, I'm not happy. Further, it's unacceptable. Period.
