BYU vs. Stanford

We had a lively discussion last week after the BYU game, so I'll post another discussion about last week's game. This is totally off-topic, so if football doesn't interest you, skip this post!

I almost didn't want to post after last week's game. What is there to say? It seems that BYU football just isn't as much fun anymore. It used to be that even if they lost, you were glued to your seat, mostly because we had such explosive offenses that you never knew that the game was really over. I mean, the Miracle Bowl could ALWAYS happen with old BYU offenses. It just doesn't seem that we have that offensive swagger anymore.

Really, our stats were almost identical to Stanford's. What was the difference? Mistakes. Interceptions, Fumbles, Penalties, Missed assignments, Poor decisions. We really weren't that overmatched, and Jason Beck didn't do that bad--we just had too many mistakes.

Go ahead and post your thoughts--I want to hear them! However, remember to be nice. Anybody could be reading this. Critique the game and the team, but let's not bash individuals.
