How many BYU fans do you anticipate will be at RES this year?

Those red zone runs of Moa had me remembering Harvey Unga getting low

is it weird that only non-P5 schools have scored touchdowns on us this year?

I got the impression that the defense was pretty vanilla vs Wyoming

They got the most reps against 2nd and 3rd team defenders and were the

I wish they could hire RGIII just for this game. Chase is on the Case!

The Chief

I was legitimately sad he got canned

LSUcougar92

12:24pm

They will be on a main Fox broadcast more than likely. Probably Colorado/UCF. But you never know.

Knee Brace

12:17pm

isn't that usually Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt?

Peanut

12:24pm

They're on the Fox noon game. Benetti/Huard have typically taken the follow-up game.

Any chance the Utah game will be a night game? Asking for a friend..

A night game at RES is spooky

Batty. I know, he's highly rated among fans, but I'd say still not highly enough

Sione Moa, but I suspect he won't be underrated for very long.

I think we are better than Baylor, but I worry about the team coming off of

Samsonite

12:09pm

We need to come out fast and get a two score lead. They’ll quit if we do that

Beggar

12:09pm

This is a quasi-rivalry game, neither team are going to quit.

OnEMoReTrY

12:10pm

I'd say it's a burgeoning rivalry. And I agree that neither will quit

Moab Rising

12:13pm

And that would force them out of their game plan

Baylor got down 23-0 versus U of U and came back and lost 23-12. I expect a

Aranda will be coaching for his life. I expect a slugfest that will come down to

Kalani’s teams seem to start strong and fade big time. I hope that changes.

Genghis Spreads

They raised the goal to $40,000 because of the reaction Saturday night. I'm guessing it's more than BYU fans, but BYU

nobody should react negatively to the raising of the goal. What a great thing

If BYU can’t beat Baylor this week

And that should be okay. A lot of Saturday's luster was more than our team's ready for right now, probably.

Baylor was picked right above us at the beginning of the year in the conference race

2FarGone

Why are you more concerned about the start time than that it’s an away game?

We play horribly in morning games, home or away.

Regardless of what the depth chart says, that'll bear itself out on the field once again, you can be sure.

Yep. Not a position where starting really matters all that much.
