I don't want to count the chickens before they hatch, but I kind of am. Let's assume we win in Laramie.

Can this team, with Jake Retzlaff on QB, go 3-6 in conference and get BYU to a bowl game? That is one conference win better than last year.

I think so. Let's say Jake is Jake and what we saw tonight is what he is. I still think the offense line is showing a big step forward--I don't even recognize Etienne out there. Last year the O-line just absolutely killed us.

And the defense looks to be quite a bit further along than last year. Jay Hill's influence is starting to show itself in a big way.

I think we get to a bowl. Baby steps. I just want six wins this year.
