Right. The argument on CB that BYU is always under-ranked and/or everyone else

is always over-ranked because of bias, P5 conference affiliation, or whatever, is a really tired and weak argument to me. Such a convenient copout.

PSA for Utes and Aggies who aren't intelligent enough for smack talk.

Eh. We had injuries up the wazoo and had been snubbed of a better bowl game.

No excuses, it was a bad loss any way you cut it. Should have never happened.

Sorry, I take the blame. Havent seen BYU win on the road since 08.

I'm actually ok with it. Cougar fans have always been shot down by Schrute fans

Team Chaos

That is true, but you know we'd be doing the same thing if Utah had beaten us last year and then lost to Arkansas State

Speak for yourself. In years that we lost to them, I wouldn't mock them

Neither would I, so welcome to the club 🙂

You need more past tense in your PSA

Past tense? So Utah has beat BYU since then? Oh, that's right. They haven't,

That ridiculous huh? So was Texas A&M better than Bama last year?

Yes. When comparing two teams head to head, the most definitive way is to

canofpicante

8/9/22 4:18pm

Wait, so Texas A&M lost to Miss State. So Miss State is better?

Medute

When comparing those two teams? Yes. One is the winner. One is the loser.

canofpicante

Yes, in that one game. Glad we agree

Medute

8/9/22 4:59pm

It’s football. Football. You determine who’s best on the field, not a calculator

Go ahead and compare teams on paper if you have no other choice. But if they

The game was designed to pit two teams against one another on the field

So Boise State and UAB were better teams than BYU last season? You honestly

8/9/22 8:52pm

Yes. Absolutely. Thats how one team trumps another, by beating them on the field

Hahahahaha. Is it really hard to understand 26-17? It’s a loss. Like the other 4

Thank you! As long as Schrute fans continue their "head-to-head doesn't matter"

SwampyCoug

You sound like quite the catch!

DrJazzy

It's pure math. The U has one less fan due to the too numerous toxic U fans.

How many games did Utah lose last year?

They lost ONE game. To Oregon State...but they really outplayed OSU in that game

Sadly, he started at Wazzu. There was a general team funk for 4 games
