This week in BYU talk
The shows spent the week processing a shocking loss to UCF in double overtime that knocked BYU from number two and opened up the Big 12 title race. The talk keeps coming back to officiating controversies in the final minutes and BYU's defensive issues, particularly a weak pass rush that ranks poorly nationally. With Utah staying undefeated and the Holy War matchup looming as the de facto conference championship game, the shows have BYU projected as a ten seed in the playoff despite the Notre Dame win.
