Re: Who Gets Fired?

the scary thing is, is how many AD's are looking at this game going, "I don't care what ESPN says, we aren't going to schedule those guys". I don't know. Coach Strong sounded like he wanted to win this game really bad after the 2013 game. He doesn't strike me as the kind of guy who would ...

What happens first-Utah beats a P5 opponent or BYU loses?

There was a lot of Ute trolling in the comments of the Deseret News article on the BYU-Texas game. One idiot was talking up the Utes' win over the "strongest WAC team." I think most of us would agree that most Ute fans would enjoy a BYU loss more than a Utah win. It got me thinking about w...

Re: 2014 Antoine Albert CB JC

That's a fun highlight video. He's big and physical, hits hard, and almost seems like a linebacker. A lot of the highlights were of him shutting down running plays in the backfield by getting past the receiver and making a solid tackle. He defends the short routes really well. He jams receivers well...

Re: Peoples?

I couldn't see anything that indicated he'd left the program or the school. I don't have any contacts in the football program at all, so it's all from articles and social media. He's mentioned in a spring practice recap on KSL dated March 5 2014. His twitter account profile describes him as a BYU d-...

Re: My thoughts and questions on the game last night...

There were a few blatant holds that weren't called on UW. There were a few plays where there was a defender reaching for the ball carrier with a stretched jersey who just missed the tackle, and a couple times that a defender squaring up to hit the runner got spun around from a tug on the jersey. On ...

Re: 2016 - Ben Sukut CB

He's got a nice highlight reel and he looks pretty impressive as a Sophomore. He hits hard, has quick acceleration, and pushes people back. I don't know enough about the area to tell if he's playing against inferior competition, or his ability just makes them look that way. (His school was listed as...

Re: Who are you, and what made you a fan?

I grew up in Orem. Here are a few of the highlights of my associations with the Cougars. I remember going to a couple games before the stadium renovation and felt jealous of the kids playing on the grass by the flame in the north end zone. I painted a picture of Jim McMahon in acrylics when I was si...

Re: Enough National Championship talk with Bronco as HC!

I think Cougar fans have it pretty good. I love the school and the time I spent on campus and I'm content being able to take my kids the stadium for one game a year (even Middle Tennessee State or Idaho State). Whether we stay to the end or not depends on how well the youngest is holding up rather t...

Re: Cougs cover the spread!

So you agree Sno - it was wise of Doman to get Hill 1 more meaningful rep as a freshman vs USU to further the freshman's development rsther than take a knee or take him out in a game already won. Hill should have been taken out for his own protection vs MTSU given that our 2 fastest RBs have alread...

Re: Why we shouldn't call for new coaches

If our schedule is tough enough, we could be 0-12 like UW was the year Jake Locker saved BYU from being the only team to lose to UW by tossing the ball sky high after scoring the TD and after the penalty - missed extra point. You're suggesting that our 2008 team--with a record of 10-3--was on par w...
