Default Rumors of our new dynasty have been greatly exagerated.

That was a piss poor performance.

This game has that feeling of the Nevada-Reno debacle that was the beginning of the end of Crowton.

It will be interesting to see if and or how the staff can right this ship.

I think the reality is that what we are seeing is what we expected to see, youthful mistakes. They just gave us blueballs early on by making us think we were reloading rather than rebuilding.

I still choose to be an optimist and believe all is not lost.

Fortunately we play in the MWC, not CUSA. AFA has shown well, but I would be surprised if anybody we play this season shows as well as Tulsa did tonight. They're a good football team and their QB is money.

He is an experienced college qb, but despite him I still think BYU should have won.

I am too tired to break down the matchups and whatnot, but it appears to me they kicked the Y's defense asses.

It will be interesting to see how BYU deals with the adversity. If they win the next two, the homerism from the fans of the big blue machine will be back to a feverish pitch.

No need to look at match-ups they were the aggressors, more physical and prepared to go for the jugular.

Anae refused to run the ball down their throat and instead threw for 500 yards in a loss ... that's poor playcalling/poor coaching!

you can't run the ball when you are playing catchup the entire game.

We ran the ball a ton in the 2nd half. Look at how much we scored in the 2nd half.

You won't be playing catch up Mike if you run the ball in the first place

Max threw his pick six after two 10 + yard runs and a run play for 5 + yards!

so never let your qb throw?

max hall shouldn't have made the throw. period.

Why call that play when you are getting 4-5 yards a pop? It's not about not letting him throw, it's about patients.

It's smart football, not armchair coaching, simply smart football.

ah yes, don't call a throw as long as you have gained 4 or more yards on 3 consecutive runs. thanks Lombardi.

It would've won this game. And that's the point isn't it -to win.
