Default BYU goes into the Utah game 11-0 and ranked #1

Presently ranked #7; over the next 8 weeks the higher ranked teams each lose one, and BYU slowly but steadily moves up to #1.

Like Missouri last year, they lose their final game of the season.

Like Missouri last year, they drop from #1 to #7 in the polls.

Like Missouri last year, none of the 10 BCS slots are awarded to them.

BYU beats Oregon State in the Las Vegas Bowl and celebrates their most victories since 1996.

Happy days, all is well.

And Utah loses to TCU because they have a good D and BJ is horrible.

BJ is not horrible. He is inconsistent at times, it is true, but OSU had a good defense. We aren't going to play many more, if any, that will cause him those kinds of problems. The turnovers are always a problem with him, but you take the good with the bad. He won't be able to turn it over like that and beat BYU certainly.

BJ is closer to a Andy Dalton than to a Max Hall.

BJ is a mediocre Division 1 qb. He is not horrible, Utah has had worse (Lance Rice comes to mind although he was not that much worse). But he turns the ball over way to much, even his amazing sophomore season that everyone talks about he was turnover prone.

Default BJ is an average QB and Ludwig

figured out that Casteel vs. a linebacker is a good matchup. Unless we get to BJ quickly, I see that matchup in our game. Do we have a LB that can cover Casteel?

You're funny. You made one small mistake there when you said BYU loses and goes to the LV bowl. I understand typos though. Let it stand corrected that BYU in the statement above was intended to say UofU

Again, what games have you been watching? Last night's performance was not all that atypical for BJ, he's been this way all year.

The same game that Kyle Gunther former Ute center is watching, he said on teh radio this morning that take away two BJ fumbles and he has been great this year.


Ummmmm............BJ has fumbled the ball 8 times this year, losing 5 and he has thrown 6 ints. That is very impressive.
