Yes, Alabama has mystique but so does Saban

The history of them being “Alabama” is important but not as important. I’m not sure if Clemson has mystique right now. Clemson is awesome but I don’t think the have Mystique.
I’m basketball I don’t know who still has it. Maybe no one. Kentucky has a little. duke has a little.

I think 11/22/2003 was the low point for BYU post 1970

East Carolina in 2017 was worse.

Scoring streak ended; utah won; Crowton ended the mystique

If were talking about a "mystique" of BYU football, that flew out the window

Lavell, had a mystique; crowton's first year looked like a return to greatness

The true LaVell mystique died forever during the five-game stretch between

Mormons are behind the times, so OK.

Ok, what about Miami, Florida and Florida State and Notre Dame?

I'd say it's debatable if any of them really have.

There is not the same mystique around any of those teams.

Nebraska is probably a better example of what I think you're describing.

By your take of when those lost their mystique it would be 1987 or so for BYU

That was a Tough 5 game stretch. . .

I was on the BYU sideline for this game. It was unbelievable how terrible it

I was there with cousins who attended ECU. They thought they'd get killed.

I think September 17, 2011 & November 18, 2018 were much worse

There is a difference between a bad loss and a low point

2003 football finish = 68. 2017 football finish = 112. 2017 was LOW.

You are right. I guess I don't even consider the Independence years to be BYU

TomPetty

6/21/21 5:44pm

If you exclude independence, losing to Utah in ‘03 & ‘04 were definitely low pts

BYU Fan

6/21/21 5:56pm

Still though, ECU was just one game. That season wasn't going well, so it

6/21/21 8:11pm

Agree. That was awful

TNT

Not even. Low point was Utah going to pac 12. It was the beginning of the end for BYU football
