W 17-10 at TCU · Sat, Oct 3 · 4-0 overall
Misery Index · Meh
4-0 and nobody's comfortable: 17-10 at TCU felt less like proof than a dare, with the injury list growing.
What happened
BYU went to Fort Worth and came home 4-0, which sounds a lot better than it looked. A 17-10 win over TCU was the kind of game that ages a fanbase in real time, and the turning point wasn't a play so much as the injury news: "Devries is out too. This has got to be a joke." The misery index landed at 52 for an undefeated team, which tells the story. As one fan put it, "Why can't you be fucking normal for five minutes!?" Apparently winning isn't enough anymore.
What fans said
“CFB is so fucking stupid to create a post-season that expects teams to have a perfect season to be rewarded.”
