Given that we'd played and prepped for Navy, it's frankly a bit disappointing that we didn't do better, but agree 100% that CCU was a weird one to prep for (regardless of how much time we get, but particvularly on short notice)

NGL, I think we’re too complacent for the USU game. People on here have been predicting an easy win by

Psh, if that’s the topic, then we’re certainly overlooking USF

There’s a difference. USF is at home, they’re a worse team, and more importantly

USU's game of the year should probably be the conference game they play this wk

And according to Yewt fans, conference games are the only ones that matter not

What should be and what is are often far apart. At least the dairy yewts i know care way more

USU will be tough. I'm still trying figure out how good we are.

I think there’s no doubt we are the better team.

MojosDojo

9/23/21 6:20am

Reality though is that better teams sometimes lose; BYU has a rough history of inexplicable losses

krindorr

The team is not.

Good thing the fan base doesn’t decide games. The team will be focused.

We didn’t beat Utah because they came out flat. We beat Utah because we’re

USUs DEs average 230 and DTs 280. Our run game is gonna look like Alabamas

Backcountry

9/23/21 6:36am

Yep, I think the game plan is run a lot and drop 8 into coverage.

The recipe for a 17 point easy win

They also beat an air force team that ran all over them. We should never over

Stucoug83

They squeaked by AF and gave up almost 450 rushing yards. BYU will run USU over.

I hope so

I feel like we said the same thing against CCU last year

krindorr

9/23/21 7:10am

Exactly. I still fully expect to win this game but i think it’s going to be a tougher one that many here assume

MojosDojo

9/23/21 7:14am

The difference is that CCU was a 2 day notice, cross country game.

Sactown Cougar

9/23/21 8:01am

Yeah, but the short notice for the CCU game impacted both teams

krindorr

9/23/21 8:17am

Its true. But...CCU has a very unique offense and a very special QB.

krindorr

CCU was a ranked team on the other side of the country on 2-days notice, and still 1 yard from a win.

I'm also occasionally on Ute boards - that take sounds almost exactly like the Ute take on BYU two weeks ago

I remember thinking that about Coastal Carolina...

If CBers thoughts on a team causes the actual BYU football team to lose than we

I didn’t say we are going to lose. Just said we shouldn’t underestimate them

MojosDojo

9/23/21 7:10am

I think you're underrating the power of CB

Marc Spector

9/23/21 7:13am

And you are completely overlooking USF!

Brigham

USU should and will be nothing more than a speed bump.

Marc Spector

9/23/21 7:07am

USU was one of the worst teams in college football last year.

The USU-Boise game may tell a lot?

Happy As Larry

9/23/21 8:08am

This. Boise will give us all the data we need on how good USU is.

Junior Deputy

9/23/21 8:11am

I think you’re projecting CB on the team

LateToTheGame

9/23/21 8:37am

Absolutely fair point. I don’t have any sources on the team just about a million on cougarboard 😂

MojosDojo

9/23/21 10:51am

You started a lively convo on CB and this is what makes it fun 🤗

LateToTheGame

9/23/21 12:05pm

I agree, USU is better than we think. They're going to be tough, esp in Logan

zerome4sooners

9/23/21 8:49am

Agreed, they have beat us more than we beat Utah recently. We should be cautious

This year has a similar feel to 2018 after the B1G Wisconsin win. I am confident

The consequences of fans overlooking USF and Utah State could be disastrous

Luckily none of us on CB will be playing in the game, then, I suppose.

I hope you’re right. I will say it seems like past BYU teams would have
