Storylines

what fans talked about, week by week
Season-long

  • Fans celebrated a gritty win at TCU, split over ugly wins after ISU, fumed at a near-collapse against ND, called UCF a trap game, and joked through another one-score ASU escape.

    “My favorite part of being a BYU fan is that our wins are convincing, no-doubt, solid victories. It’s nice knowing that our team plays consistent football and it puts my heart at ease being certain that we have a game in the bag. I have never doubted this BYU team, ever. And I have no reason to, with this magnificent team that gives me no stress at all.”
