But, in 20+ years of following BYU, I’ve never feared Utah in SLC less than I do right now for this season.
Utah will have to play much better than they have in any game they have this season and BYU would have to play worse than any game they have this season for the cougs to lose. Outside of a fluky utah +5 inexplicable turnovers I just dont see how they’ll win. This is the most well rounded highest performing defense I’ve maybe ever seen from BYU and our strengths (run defense) are perfectly suited to shut Utah down.
If BYU can get an early lead with momentum and take the crowd out of it, it could be a massacre.
I see it 41-13 cougs.
