How Twitter reacted to Notre Dame-BYU: Cougars side
BYU entered its contest against Notre Dame as a ranked team. However, it didn’t enter with the best momentum after it had trouble beating a struggling Utah State the week before. Fans took notice of that and wondered if it was an omen for when the Cougars played the Irish. It turned that were kind of right as the Cougars lost, 28-20.
Cougars fans shouldn’t feel too bad as the Irish have yet to lose a Shamrock Series game, and their team just happened to be the opponent this year. Still, that fact has to be of little consolation for them. This has been one of the best programs in the country to this point, and it’s worth wondering how much longer they’ll be ranked, if at all. In any case, Cougars fans took to Twitter to vent their frustrations, and it probably hurts even more given how close their team was to completing a comeback:

This team showed so much heart man. No use trying to autopsy tonight. BYU just got beat by a better team. Notre Dame made plays when they had to and BYU did not.

It’s Notre Dame. Prime time game. In Allegiant. How do you come out flat?

BYU had chances to win this one. Got outplayed in the first half. Stormed back. Needed another couple of plays.

If we lost to a better team and had played our best, I would be okay with that. I’m not okay with poor play against a mediocre team. Get this fixed Cougs! Arkansas won’t be any easier. #BYUvsND
