And TN was a tipped pass away from being down 13-9. Defense gave up just 3 points in the second half to keep BYU in the game and thank goodness we play a full 60 minutes. I’ll take it!

Yeah because it was also the DB who made the perfect read on a non primary route option and delivered a perfect downfield pass hitting the receiver in stride who made a perfect move after the catch getting downfield into easy field goal range. None of that has anything to do with BYU........ :roll:


Sorry for laying the sarcasm on a bit thick, but lets enjoy the win for a few hours.

I'll enjoy it until this coming Saturday. But not forgetting that, under Sitake, we're barely above .500 overall, 6-12 vs P5 teams, 0-4 vs Utah, 1-2 vs Utah State, and 0-3 vs Boise State. If we play like we did last night against USC and Washington, who are better teams than Tennessee, we will be 1-3.

I don't get all you negative Nancies. Who cares how close they were to NOT winning. They WON. In spectacular fashion against great odds. BYU was/will be the underdog in each of the first 4 games. They came out victorious in one so far. 1-3 is what they are SUPPOSED to be after the next 2 games now that they have a win.

I totally agree. Let’s enjoy a good win for at least a little while.

We have a 59% chance of winning one of the two games.

Did I say BYU did everything right? I said Wilson made a perfect decision and a perfect throw and Simon made a perfect cut.

They have a long way to go before I think they can be considered a good team, but as a fan I can at least enjoy a thrilling finish where the players didn’t quit.
