BYU should never have been in the situation where they needed 4th and 1 with a 1 point deficit. BYU was up by 20 in the 4th quarter and now they are losing by 8. The defense simply sucks.

With our 4th string RB no less, the one that struggles running between tackles.
When will BYU learn that a game is 4 qtrs long not 2.5 qtrs????? When will BYU learn to play smart football??? When will BYU learn to play to win and not to lose??? I hope BYU is satisfied in losing its fans.

Offense, largely did its job. Defense imploded in the 4th.

Grimes didn't help the matter.

Sitake, will blame the offense.

No, the defense is simply tired because the offense stopped playing football mid way through the 3rd QTR.

It's why I said BYU needs to play ALL 4 QUARTERS .

They didn't.

The defense hardly played in the 1st half.

The defense gave up 21 points in the 4th. 21 points! That's more than in most games. The defense fell apart.

Offense didn't help the matter.

The defense hardly played in the 1st half. They should have had plenty of energy.

They will start playing smart football when we get smart coaches.

Fire Sitake! This timid bullcrap of playing to not lose needs to go away forever. I want a coach who isn't afraid to run up the score against a rival. They came out at the half and mailed it in. They suck!
