The refs? How about them not calling an ejection on 90 for a helmet to helmet leveling of UW's QB? I saw holds not called going both ways and didn't see anything blatant not called so what on earth are you basing that on? Your only assertion here was that because BYU out gained UW by a large margin that it had to be the refs and the 'fix' they had on the game that allowed UW to win it.

I mean wow. Didn't have anything to do with BYU being inept on special teams both on kick off coverage and punting. Didn't have anything to do with BYU not being effective in the red zone all night. It was the refs.

Agree the refs gave BYU one on that helmet to helmet, but they owed BYU for the helmet to helmet UW did on BYU that they called on BYU and killed a BYU drive. Too bad they didn't make up for their other bs calls that killed BYU

I watched a lot of dropped balls and sacks allowed by BYU tonight. That made a big difference. Huskies played a more complete game. End of story.

Nobody would call this a massacre blowout, but some of the stats are deceiving as we put up some serious yds on special teams. I think UW was the superior team tonight. For sure.

I agree UW looked clearly superior talent-wise, but we all knew that. I am impressed with how badass BYU played despite being so out-manned talent-wise

I said UW made the plays while BYU didn't and that BYU would had still lost despite blowing out UW in total yards and first downs even had the refs been fair. BYU had drops all over, even the team captain in clutch situations.

They're an incredibly hard team to defend because both the RB and QB can run bigtime. Both of them had over 1000 yds rushing this season. That's a DCs nightmare trying to contain that, while protecting against the pass as well. UW D looked gassed by the half, but came back and played tough through it all.

Scoreboard as well. BYU was kicking FGs while we were scoring TDs. Lot of cred to our redzone D to keep them to FGs for most of the game.

You can't debate him on this. Have you read the stuff he says about Seattle and our fans? Clearly some bias and I have no idea why, but it has shown up against both UW and the Seahawks.

I'm fine with it. Lots of us have our biases about other teams. Just saving you your time. You and I saw a BYU team that moved the ball well, but didn't have receivers doing their jobs in the red zone and flat out shot themselves on special teams and he saw refs with a 'fix' on the game against the mormons.

So how'd that second half $200 bet work out for you Wallace.

And how much did you bet on the game overall? Serves you right for betting against the dawgs.

Just "bought" the BYU +3 2nd half for $200 clams @ high tide people.

While it didn't shock me considering it's wallace, I couldn't believe he bet on the +3 for BYU at the half. OMG, what a stupid, stupid bet.

This was one of the bowls that I really wanted to watch and didn't get a chance to. Congrats to UW on their win tonight.
