BYU football: Turnovers, short fields leave Coug 'D' hurting

And BYU would have claimed a dramatic come-from-behind victory!

No wonder... if Harmon is to be believed... BYU is 1-20 in recent years against ranked teams.

* They make excuses when they get worked.
* They put all their emphasis on conference championships.

Great assessment coach ! Come on now, you played Utah even, other than those pesky turnovers ?? Correct me if I'm wrong but this was a totally dominant performance by the UTES. Nice try to try to spin this well for your team but even THEY know that this wasn't anywhere close. Oh by the way, Bronco, Hurricane Katrina was just a minor little storm. Nice try Sparky !!

Dominant performance by the Utes? Please Mendoza.

Twice BYU came back from large deficits and came within three. Halls unbelievable poor play was indeed the difference in the game. Cmon Ute fan, be objective here, Admit it you were sweating for three quarters.

The final score shows a blowout indeed, props to the Utes.
But to say that Utah worked BYU all night is flat out psychotic. That is not the reality.

Santa came early for Utah, in the image of Max Hall.

I think the blame here really needs to go to Anae's poor play calling. When the run brought the cougs back twice, he abandoned it, as usal.

Second and three and he's dropping Hall back to pass. If anything sums up this season it is Anae's inablity to see the game in real time and use the weapons he has. Very Frustating.

Congrats to the Utes, this is the best outcome for the conference.

However, can the talk of a BCS birth or two or three equaling an actual NCAA championship. Your a top ten team and you are going to a BCS bowl, along with 9 other teams.

good luck

Again, I am surprised. But I really should be. After Utah's dominate showing on the field, the DN sports staff comes up with an article like this. Sour grapes from both the staff writer and Coach Bronk. This is why people take the SL Trib.

Isn't it lame to essentially argue that your team dominated every category except the scoreboard.

After the game Kreuger was asked how he got his interception.

"I read Hall's eyes and knew right where it was going."

Your team is in deep trouble when a defensive lineman is reading your QB's eyes and taking interception's back. Not because your QB is inept. But because you have been seriously outschemed.

Agree about poor play calling. Anae needs to improve in that area.

Krueger from Orem, Utah says he went 45 miles north to U in SLC, Utah to experience "more diversity and culture." LOL, LOL, LOL, LOL

I'm a Cougar Fan, but the play calling is predictable and defensive allignments also consistent. Easy for a good to dismantle....? Seems to be the case....TCU and Utah are fine teams.....shows significant weakness? Execution is fine, but.....
