Since the loss to Florida State in 2009, BYU has won the first game I attend each season
2010 - Washington
2011 - Ole Miss
2014 - Texas
2019 - Boise State
2021 - Arizona State
2022 - Boise State
2023 - Arkansas
2024 - SMU (Hopefully)
P.S. I still think we would ahve beat Florida State with a health Scott Johnson playing safety. While his freshmen replacement was good, I think we needed Scott's leadership/experience.
But that is just a hunch I can't prove.
