We have had one OOC loss since joining the PAC, two if you want to include bowl games. Doing our part...

Ok well done - how many New Years bowl or playoff wins?

2 BCS, but that was before the PAC. The difference in depth became apparent once stepping up. That appears to have be rectified. As I try to point out to our G5 posters, it makes a difference, it's a UCFact, ha ha. Also, taking in the fact that our state legislature want to "encourage" continuing the Utah ByPoo series makes scheduling P5s problematic. Having them win a couple of P5 matchups against down P5 teams some years makes them think that they are legit. 9 straight will not be enough to discourage the madness from continuing. I have no explanation for the USC game today, except that USC should win the does less with more award than any team in CFB... Again...

I could watch that all day long. Talk about football pron. Go Dawgs!!!

But I do wish the Bows have a great rest of the season. Rolovich is doing an awesome job with them and look forward to any matchups with Hawaii in the future.

Playing at altitude certainly seemed to affect their defense.

Really? Seemed pretty simple to me.

Slovis played pretty well overall, but made 3 freshman mistakes that ended up being interceptions. 2 put BYU in the Red Zone that resulted in 10 points for BYU and 1 in ot that ended the game.

2 of the picks should have fallen incomplete (including the one in ot), but the defender made a great play.

Definitely makes a difference, especially later in the game...

They looked gassed at times. But that's not why they lost.

Agree. But with the amount of 4 and 5* talent on that team. they should have been able to overcome those. BYPoo should not have the horses to run with them...

Meh, they may be 4 and 5 star players, but they are also a lot of 18 and 19 year olds with a mostly new coaching staff and new system and a freshman qb starting his first road game. It happens.

Hopefully they learn from it, because the schedule gets a lot harder starting Friday.

Their record is what I thought it would be after the first 3 games, but I thought the loss would be to Stanford.

He's a good coach, but he needs to stop pulling McDonald when the going gets rough.

 

[The Derski]

UofA held the Red Raiders to 14 points and ended the game with like 20 straight run plays. They ran 13 straight times during a 99 yard TD drive.

You want a cookie?
Zona had a decent outcome against a meh team and still somehow looked bad much of the game doing it.

Looked bad? Me thinks you watched the first half and dozed off in the second half or channel flipped. They straight up made Texas Tech their son the final 20 minutes or so.

 

[OregonDucks]

The conference is hanging on by Oregon, ASU, Utah, UW, and maybe moving forward Arizona. I still think Sumlin and Tate will make some noise in conference play, it's just a shame they lost to Hawaii.

The only thing we learned is TT can't score on that D as well as Hawaii and NAU did.

Tate is dangerous, but zona's D has been simply horrible so far. Holding TT to 14 doesn't erase those first two games.

Utah and ASU have the best chances to make some noise this year since neither plays the worst of their schedule until late.
