but over time a better coach's team will play better overall. As time goes on, there is a positive correlation with the team catching up to the coach. They did just lose to Rutgers though. But overall I agree with this point.

This is why the Liberty game felt almost like a loss to some:

I was hoping we'd score 50 points for the first time since Toledo 2016 right?

If we had an identity on offense or defense we would have dropped 50 on them.

ThorLebowski

11/11/19 9:31am

Careful, I got hammered earlier for talking about not having an identity

We got 51 against UMass in 2016

lol ok. So technically we got 50... can we get it next week?

Mayor of Cougartown

That's a great question - will BYU score 50+ against Idaho State or UMass

That’s not how it works though

We are what the score says we are. 7 points better than Liberty.

UMASS, Northern Illinois, Toledo, South Florida, East Carolina all felt

Yeah that is why I mentioned the Portland State game. Felt very similar to that

ThorLebowski

11/11/19 9:34am

Portland State felt a lot worse to me....Against Liberty we moved the ball

Dangerous

ya agreed that Portland State was worse, but felt similar to that to me.

ThorLebowski

11/11/19 9:48am

Yep. This sums it up pretty well. I hate it when a victory feels like a loss because it was so weak and uninspired.

Two of Liberty’s six wins, were against FCS Hampton and Maine.

Liberty isn't great, for sure.

But let's not give any credit to their QB, who has thrown for 23 TDs and 3 INTs

Who is not giving credit to him? Him and Gandy-Golden were a 2-man team.

ThorLebowski

11/11/19 10:33am

Unfortunately, we can't just put all 22 guys on defense covering G-G.

of course. But it's not hard to scheme out one player completely. We've seen

The D scheme is bad....

Biggest thing you're overlooking is that Hugh Freeze is a big time coach who

The plays our defense has been feasting on, and creating turnovers on, were

Well said.

ThorLebowski

11/11/19 12:44pm

I think you also have to give Liberty some credit. They played well.

No factual analysis to see we played well under our potential, although this

this is fantastic. Liberty is actually better than BYU. We should feel lucky.

ThorLebowski

11/11/19 2:25pm

this proves conclusively that BYU is better than utah

Str8CashCougar

That is great. BYU is better than Alabama, I knew it

you need an algorithm to tell you that? I saw something on film and knew instant

We are their Super Bowl. We won. Our D scheme still sucks.
