Brigham Young Cougars defensive lineman Corbin Kaufusi (90) tries to block a punt by Boise State Broncos kicker Joel Velazquez (46) in Provo on Friday, Oct. 6, 2017.

A week ago BYU football coach Kalani Sitake was up to his hips with four-straight losses. After Friday night, the mire that he’s trying to pull his herd of oxen out of became chest high.

Boise State’s 24-7 win over BYU handed the Cougars their fifth-straight loss. That hasn’t happened at BYU in 47 years.

Sitake told reporters after the latest loss that he can’t keep saying the same thing in that press room because it’s sounding like a broken record.
