BYU Fan Intervention Needed

Then push for a later bowl so the team is actually able to use the full allotment of practices.

Playing one of the first games doesn’t help this goal at all.

I assume the team wanted to get the game over ASAP to focus on 2023

You're talking like a 7-5 BYu can just choose any bowl you want. I'll stand

Would we face SMU? At least it would likely be an entertaining game...

If there was a meaningful game after Christmas that was an option, then maybe

First Responders against a Big 12 team is meaningful

runningryan

12/4/22 12:28pm

Not if we lose...which we likely would based on our recent bowl games.

BYU gets to play a good SMU team. I'm surprised we got to play this strong
