re: BYU guy here...I'm a little nervous for this game

Eligibility was never in question. He sat out last semester for personal reasons

This.

Not one person in Provo knows what a piss balloon is.

Just off the top of my head, we lost our stud running back Jamaal Williams and will be going with a running back by committee including Wisconsin transfer Ula Tolutau and Squally Canada. Taysom Hill is gone but Tanner Mangum takes over after his 2015 all-american freshman season as more of a pure passer but in Ty Detmer's pro-style offense going under scenter. It's more of a Stanford and Michigan style offense that focuses on ball control and time of possession. We'll be targeting our Tight Ends alot more in this offense. On defense, we are replacing our free safety but go with a 4-3 set with man-press coverage. Our defense is more physical than our offense since this is Sitake's bread and butter. Our corners and linebackers are the teams strengths on this side of the ball. We're also hoping for our defensive line to step up more this year but who knows how that will turn out. Phil Steele was pretty generous with his forecast on my 2017 cougars so I'm guessing there should be reason to be optimistic that we can make a game of it.

Dude no one has football on the brain. We are still in baseball and hosting game 2 of the supers. Most likely it will be 2 weeks before most are thinking about football.

Football talk is always acceptable.

I slightly misspoke: In Provo it doesn't happen.

Uh, have you been to Laramie, WY or Rice Eccles in SLC?

Why no. No I haven't....

This game will never be in doubt for LSU

Hey now I said first half

how it will effect how we play against Utah and Wisconsin

BYU will lose these as well. Tough stretch to start - they'll be pretty beat up to start the season.
