The idea of a play-in game for a 12 seed game makes sense if you think of the conference auto-bids. If some not very good team ends up winning their conference tournament they should get ranked as a 16 seed but they did win their conference so they should be in the tournament, otherwise you have th...

But we want Pugh. I've kind of changed my mind on Coach Pugh and wonder how much BYU's improvement was Coach Grime vs Coach Pugh and or Mateos. Did you know Coach Mateos did not have a job when BYU hired him (he was not retained at Texas St with the coaching staff shake up). Look at Coach Ryan Pugh...

This didn't work out too well for BYU when they did this with Ty Detmers offensive staff. Interesting to see whether this gamble will pay off for Utah state.

But that would mean that Tuiaki would have to relinquish his Dline coaching duties and we got rid of a better Dline coach to put him there. Yeah, not going to happen.

Well, a teams offense will go as far as their offensive line will take them. IMO this will be an important hire and if BYU gets it wrong, the offense is going to really struggle. I was so sick of the horrible offensive line play we had had since Grimes left the first time and now that it is getting ...

I was hoping for a bit more competitive effort than this. Looks like Coach Pope has his work cut out for him to get this team ready to compete with nationally ranked teams. USC and now Gonzaga.

He did this to a lot of opposing fans this year.

Only because it was over shortly after kickoff.

Grimes is very close with Ryan Pugh. In Jay Drew's tweet he says that "Grimes considers Pugh a son". It makes sense that if he could get Pugh or take Mateos with him he would take Pugh first. After all, he did it once before in bringing Pugh to BYU and only lost him so he could have a shot at being...

Wish it weren't so soon. Of course if we get the upset, I will be elated. I feel this team needs some improvement to compete with Gonzaga though.
