Long Time No Post - Bring on the Rivalry!

Things got pretty wild around here and I haven't taken the time to post anything, but with the last game of the year other than the bowl game coming up, I figure it's time.

Both BYU and Utah are ranked right close to each other and have identical records. Each lost to TCU and a BCS conference team. BYU has quite a few seniors although it seems not an awful lot has changed since last year. The defense is soft and seems to have trouble getting fired up. Utah is once again overachieving and has pulled out some close ones this year. The big difference for them is a freshman quarterback and missing the leg of Louie Sakoda.

BYU's key to this game will be ball control on offense. We CANNOT turn the ball over or we will lose. Secondary to that is the defense needs to be intense and tight. They need to be able to confuse and frustrate the freshman QB with only 3 or 4 starts under his belt. This game will not be easy for either team and I'm thinking we'll have the type of game seen in 05, 06 and 07.

This will come down to the wire and the team that wins the turn over battle will win the game.

Go Cougs!
