Comments about ‘Blue roundup: Is BYU part of Big East plans?’

Please no! After Saturday's performance it's very clear this team/program is not ready for high-level football on a weekly basis.
1) There is no fire in this mature offensive line.
2) Special teams continues to be an issue on a weekly basis. From kickoffs out of bounds, to 20yd punts, to off target hikes. Every week is something new.
3) Coaching staff continues to have clock management issues.
4) Turnovers continue to plague this team. Poor decisions, poor coaching.

Stick with the Indy status and continue to ride the ESPN gravy train until they choose to bolt to someone else. Lesser known recruites at other organizations continue to eat our lunch on a weekly basis.

Can someone please tell Tom Holmoe that the whole Bronco thing isn't working out any longer? Should have never signed him to a 3 yr contract. Mendenahall is not an elite coach, never will be and never was. I know BYU will probably not be able to get an elite coach, but I'd like to itleast have a coach with common sense.
1) Please kick a FG when it's 4th down. We need points! Bringing in Matt Marshall to throw a pass on 4th and 3 was just ridiculous. Bring in the first team offense and go for it and give yourself a better chance if you are going to go for it on 4th down.

2.) two huge blunders before the half. Down 21-10, and with Nelson just getting lambasted on 2nd down and throwing the ball up for grabs with under a minute to go in the half, we decided to throw it on 3rd down instead of run the ball and run out the clock and only be down by 11. Instead-Incomplete, punt the ball, good return and they score before half. Bad coaching in critical situations. The field goal at the half-pathetic!

BYU will not join the Big East or Big 12 for that matter. Their schedule in comming years is getting stronger as quality teams open spots to be televised nationally and their ratings on ESPN have surpassed all expectations.

Leftovers. Lol! I will laugh when the big least loses the bcs bid and the real bcs conferences are given another auto bid. And for thosw cougar fans who are excited about a strong schedule, it doesn't matter when you lose to every team with a winning record! Who was the last good team you beat? Lol!

Until BYU can beat a BCS team, they shouldn't be looking to join a BCS conference...they have already lost to three BCS teams this year on national TV. Just can't get any BCS respect when you lose on a national stage.

Actually, I think it is a wonderful idea. If they can go football only and have a regional rival with BSU and leave all their other sports in the WCC they can still be playing all over the country and get the desired exposure they like.

I like it.

I hate to tell you "Weber State Graduate" but BYU has already beat 2 BCS teams this year.

Einstein saying that 3 BCS losses you must be thinking of your utes. or maybe your mind is just clouded over because the wildcats are so terrible this season. But, Ole Miss is a W... Utah is an L and so what. Texas is a L by a mere point. TCU is not a 2011 BCS school.

Chris B,

Just because the Utes beat at home a 2-5 Beaver team doesn't mean you can come out of your shell.

Hmmm. I'm not sure whether BYU would join this conference or not. The only thing they have going for them is they are an AQ (for now).

Stay away from this loser conference post haste.

At first glance, I thought this was a bad idea. However, if the Big East (or whatever it comes to be called) remains an AQ conference, it's not a bad idea. Isn't this kind of what BYU was trying to do when they were trying to resurrect the WAC a year and half ago?

The Big East isn't that strong a football conference. It's respectable, but not impossible. The conference championship would probably come down to the winner of the BYU/BSU game each year. (I can't think of anyone that strong in the East.)

BYU might end up in a better position to go to a BCS bowl game/national championship than Utah. (Utah isn't going for a LONG time, by the way. They don't have any QB prospects.)

Wherever they end up, please tell Roland Nelson to quit waving the ball around in the air as he's being tackled.

"I hate to tell you "Weber State Graduate" but BYU has already beat 2 BCS teams this year."

I hate to tell you TheCrow but Im not so sure I would be quick to point that out...all things considering.

Ole Miss (2-6)
Oregon State (2-6)

Concerning Collie. Amazing what the best QB in football can do for those around him.

Daily Deseret News rumor-mongering article regarding BYU going to a BCS conference....check.

See you tomorrow, November 1st.

Weber State Graduate

Just can't admit to being so clueless about BYU's BCS wins/losses can you?

BYU is 2-2 versus BCS teams.
Utah is 2-4 versus BCS teams.

Utah fans were going ga-ga on Saturday over Utah's first PAC 12 win over OSU at home, the same team that BYU beat earlier on the road.

And #67 Pittsburgh isn't ranked much higher than #87 Ole Miss.

Agreed, Brave Sir Robin. Is there anybody out there that still cares about rumors? call me when anything is signed in ink. Until then, I hope they remain independent.

As for all the other BYU haters who are saying to get back with them when they beat a BCS team and then discounting the two wins they have by saying, "Yeah. They beat 2 teams with losing records." I would ask what the record is of Oregon State?

How's that crow tasting for all you posing as a "Ute fan" to hate on the Cougs? Nuff said....

Daily jealous rant from a BYU-obsessed hater.
