Results to date Boise State Boise State is 6-0. The Broncos deserve props for beating all the teams on their schedule, include two Power 5 schools. You can’t ask for more. Or could you? One of the P5 wins was against one of the worst teams in the nation, OSU. The Broncos looked vulnerable against both […]
The Big XII has decided to expand. They are investigating teams. Many fans of BYU are hopeful that the expansion will include them. However, there are many teams that could get an invite, and the Big XII is only going to choose two to four teams. Based on statistics (see them at https://www.byutobig12.com), BYU would be […]
BYU and Utah and two teams that are constantly looking for legitimacy. No championship is more questioned than that of BYU in 1984. Going 14-1 in 1996 wasn’t good enough for BYU to play in a top bowl, let alone a chance for the Championship. Utah never had a relevant season until they went undefeated […]
Kyle Whittingham is in the hot seat this year. Utah hadn’t played anyone of note yet. No, this year Michigan is not a team “of note.” For that matter, Washington State, coming in with a 1 – 3 record, was hardly considered a team of note either. That is what makes this loss so hard […]
Virginia decided to show up and play to win. They looked like a team that could knock off a ranked opponent, and not just because they knocked off #21 Louisville last week. They played with similar power against the Cougars. As expected, the quarterback running had a big impact on the first drive, resulting in […]
The first 25 minutes for BYU, it seemed the only wrong they could do was commit penalties, but it didn’t matter, ’cause they could make up for them. The rest of the game, BYU looked average at best. For the entire game, both BYU and Houston looked mistake prone. BYU seemed able to overcome the […]
BYU’s Taysom Hill did not repeat last years disappointing start to the season. In this year’s opener, he threw for three touchdowns and 308 yards. Zero interceptions. If that was all he accomplished, it would be considered a banner night. But Taysom also ran for 97 yards and 2 touchdowns. Yes, that is right, Quarterback […]
How good is Chuckie Keaton for the Utah State Aggies? Well, two seasons ago, some thought he should be a Heisman contender. While he made the Heisman contender list this year, last year’s injury that limited him to six games casts doubt on his abilities? Is he really 100% recovered? Can he live up to […]
The BYU defense has been solid the past few years. If the BYU defense is as stingy as expected, UConn will struggle to get to 17 points. But the cougar offense has had a tendency to struggle early on in the season, especially in the Blue Zone. If Taysom Hill can lead the offense to […]
Utah will have Wilson back behind center. But against the Idaho State, an FCS team that has lost 44 of their last road games, Utah could probably play without a quarterback at all, with only 10 offensive players, and win with just running backs taking the snaps. This game is going to be a snoozer. […]
