I'm old enough to remember so many seasons where BYU seemed to have no answer to the backup QB.

That Brett Ratliff fiasco still irks me.

But this defense seems to be different and well coached.

I’m 100% convinced the most important part of this game is our defense

I agree. They are good on defense. If the offense struggles early you are going

They also played Baylor and scored 23.

And with captain helmet in the game for most? All? The scoring

They have the element of surprise. With a new coordinator and two weeks to

Can you really improve or overhaul an offense in 2 wks with your 3rd string qb?

Not well. But maybe just enough, if you add some run option and a trick play or

I can see that, but I'm not sure 1 or even half a dozen new plays will make a

And two receivers just quit! The hand wringing

Did those receivers actually have much of a role anyway though?

Pittman played and they also lost Parks who was their biggest WR threat.

I look to them to add in a wildcat like they have in the past I don't see much

I keep seeing the OSU game when they destroyed us on the ground.

Bernard and Gordon are not the same type of RB. Plus it was Rangel killing us

Yukon

Nov 8, 6:16am

We were not assignment sound. If our defense plays their assignments we kill ‘em

I think it’s how our offense executes against their D. BYU’s offense might just

Agreed. And the loss of Money Parks is pretty big.

This. Robinson can lock down singer.

Agree except for the TO part. If we give them short fields

I think the most important part of the game is gonna be us not turning the ball

Since they have a new, relatively unseen QB starting, I would imagine the Utah OC would implement

BYU is also coming off a bye week. Don't be surprised to see some unexpected

Doogal McCougar

But didn't BYU play OSU after a bye week?

Knight-who-says-ni

Nov 8, 8:42am

major difference being OSU has a better rb. by a long shot

bald man

Nov 8, 9:51am

OSU had a bye, BYU was on a short week so it's exacerbated

AllHailTheOverlord

You're right. BYU was on a short week. I had that wrong.

Knight-who-says-ni

Nov 8, 9:55am

BYU played *ARIZONA* after our first bye week: 41-19 win

Doogal McCougar

Nov 8, 10:01am

Except the AZ quarterback was not an unknown variable.

He was though in every way better than whatever they're going to trot out

Is Rose starting?

All signs point to this

I think this is the most physical OL BYU faces and best run blocking

Bobmarleyjr

Nov 8, 10:11am

I see our D setting our O up to score big, if the D doesn't score themselves. Maybe we'll run that Pick 6 play?
