Time to suck it up and drive down the field to take the lead. Make plays. Show we belong.

A couple of those run options should have been pitched by GC.
I'm referring to the 3rd and 5 play which was clearly a designed QB Draw. We haven't done squat with that all year

I feel like previous Green Wave teams wouldn't have taken advantage of the penalty like that. Defense keeps coming up huge!
I agree 100%, in Fritz I trust.

Yeah, that was a qb draw cause he didn't even hesitate to fake the option. I see where Fritz was going because the only way we moved the ball up field that drive were from runs up the middle.

Someone on offense has to make a freaking play! This defense deserves better.

Have to get points on this drive to get it back to a one score game.

Defense needs a quick stop or this game is over.

How do you not get that guy out of bounds at the ten and let him score?

A game against better competition shows the limitations of Glen C. Doesn't have the speed, the arm or the ability to run the option play effectively against a good defense.

No reason to play conservative on offense now. Let's open it up and get aggressive!

Not a good showing by fans the week of Big XII expansion talks. Atmosphere is not big time. Turn on ESPN and see and hear the difference in the BYU atmosphere.

Yup. Maybe if the punt muffs don't happen first half we pull this one out. But this game showed that Glenn C. requires the rest of the team to be perfect for us to win. A few dropped passes, a few costly penalties, and we have no shot to win.
