Thread: BYU 2017

  1. #41
    Well, they kept Mangum in as quarterback...even after burning that freshman's red shirt last week.

    So with the high school portion of the schedule starting up, how long will this losing streak last?

    The question is can they win 6 straight after losing 6 straight to make a bowl game?

    I say, no, they won’t make a bowl game. This team is THAT bad.

    BYU 2017

    (1-6) East Carolina puts the hurt on the Cougs. BYU only managed 17 points on the worst defense in the nation.

    Total Yards ECU Opponents Gained This Year

    James Madison--605
    West Virginia--614
    Virginia Tech--675
    UConn--596
    USF--575
    Temple--523
    UCF--603
    BYU--421

    Is there any debate on who is the worst team in the state? What about the nation?

    And no possibility of a bowl game...

    The biggest value of a bowl game to most programs is the 2 weeks of extra practice you get. Much of that time is spent with younger players that will be playing more in the following year. For that reason alone not going bowling is a huge negative.

    BYU football seems be in a death spiral. They may never recover.

    2. B-Why?-U (1-7)

    The Cougars traveled 2,235 miles from Provo, Utah, to Greenville, North Carolina, only to lose to the East Carolina Pirates 33-17. To make matters worse ...

    Fresno State is favored by 10. I wonder when the last time (if ever) they’ve been favored over BYU.

    20-13 Fresno, at least BYU covered the spread.

    This is not going to change as long as BYU remains an independent. Any changes made before joining a conference is just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

    BYU 2017

    I feel bad for Mangum. He can’t catch a break. BYU needs to rejoin the Mtn West. They used to contend for championships every year in that league. Now they are lucky to beat a bottom feeder. The program is in a death spiral.


  18. #56
    The spiral continues... I think they need to fire Holmoe. He got them into this mess and I think it was all about ego. They were desperate to do something to match Utah’s invitation to the Pac-12. Independence was the dumbest decision in the history of BYU Athletics.

    Good article on BYU sports, worth the read...

    This is a quality piece of sports journalism. Definitely worth reading.

    Another article about the woes of BYU football:

    https://www.ksl.com/?sid=46203352&nid=294

    The comments section were rife with speculation that BYU would just get rid of the football program altogether - like what happened at BYU-Idaho and Hawaii. I honestly can't see that happening.

    BYU 2017

    Two take aways for me:

    - They gambled on independence and lost the farm.
    - The honor code is stricter than a temple recommend. How does this make sense for college kids?
