I really like Pope, but I lost all interest in his basketball team last year when he lost to UVU, and this year looks to be worse than last. I know that bad losses happen, but this appears to be more of a trend than an every-once-in-a-while sort of thing.

I don't know anything about the coach, so I can't really be happy for his sake. And I'm definitely not happy with how BYU's defense is playing right now. This has to be the worst defense I've seen all year, against a team that isn't officially even FCS yet.

Good game. Excited to see what Ropati can do on the field, that guy is a player. The coaches have been saying for weeks that Jaren has been fully healthy, but something was definitely off before---but now he seems to be back to where he used to be.

I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt that Liberty is better than their struggles against an FCS team would suggest, and I'm likewise willing to believe that ECU might be fielding the best team they've ever had. Our defensive struggles are a known quantity at this point. But our offensive str...

And despite how bad this defense has been it has to be noted how bad the offense has been of late. The defense I feel has been bad for years and this season particularly there have been signs even since the Baylor win. I honestly think that the defensive players and coaching staff have hit their ce...

It’s an interesting strategy to hold on to someone you’re planning to get rid of. I can see that on the one hand, there’s plenty of work to keep people busy. But on the other hand, there’s the common problem that when players don’t believe in a coach anymore, it seeps into all sorts of aspects of th...

I am thinking this defense might perform better if they just run around randomly grabbing whatever offensive player happens to be nearby. It might give us a few offensive holding penalties, but I think our yards per play given up would still go down.

I've only religiously watched BYU football since late 1999, but the defensive team and scheme currently fielded has to be the worst defense I've seen at BYU. And I've seen some bad ones. What's the last worst defense you've seen at BYU? How does this current team compare?

I totally get the people who are down on BYU after that game. And there are some very fixable mistakes. But I think there are three things worth looking at: -Legas was solid and BYU wasn't prepared for him. Yes he threw a couple picks, but after watching him wriggle out of situation after situation ...

I do not like this game.
