My take on the TCU game
While our boys were getting it handed to them I was hanging out in the Soak Zone watching a Shamu show. The next day I was at the SD Zoo watching a mountain lion right before feeding time pace the fence line licking his chops whenever a little kid ran past. Looks like the kitties from Provo are lacking a bit of that killer instinct. Hell, I didn't even know the score until Saturday morning!
Couldn't have picked a better time for a vacation. Hopefully our boys in blue have heard the wake up call and finish strong.

My guess is another loss to Utah and maybe a win in a lackluster bowl game. lots of fun. Let's build for next year, and recruit for the deficiencies.

Yes, it's disappointing, but going into the season I don't think anyone expected an undefeated season. The big win against a lousy uninspired UCLA team probably gave us unrealistic expectations. I've always thought we had a better BCS shot in 09. Same skill players of offense, more experienced defense, TCU and Utah at home...

My take on the TCU game
It really, really sucked.

I had decided after UNM that we probably wouldn't go undefeated. Mentally, I was prepared for another Vegas Bowl. The TCU game score surprised me a bit, but the outcome didn't.

i don't like the mental make up of this team. Not enough ferocity on defense and no go to leader type on offense.

Yes, a Vegas Bowl birth isn't overly special, but looking back even 3 years ago, I was thrilled being conference champs and Vegas bound. Plus, if we can win out (and Utah can beat TCU) there is still an outside shot at a meaningful game. The season isn't over... just the perfect season. |

Besides, this year wasn't supposed to be BYU's year to break the BCS anyway. It just became that when the pre-season hype started rolling in.
