BYU finally showed up on defense and proved the opponent to be what they were supposed to be, not good. BYU 41 SDSU 12. We've been making so many not so good teams look much better than they actually are that I was starting to wonder if we'd be able to pull this off. However San Diego State is just plain bad and it was a great confidence booster for the Cougs going into the toughest stretch of the season.
The great thing was the final home win marked the third straight season that BYU has gone undefeated at home, a new school record. We said goodbye to 22 seniors and while they will be missed, there are plenty of players ready to step in and take over and should give us another great year of football next year too.
Next up is at the Air Force Academy which despite being a young team has played really well this season and provides quite a few mismatches against our D. I still think our offense is good enough to win this one in the end and I'll look to our D to get just a couple stops so the O can capitalize and give us a cushy 2 score lead.
After AFA is Utah at Salt Lake. This is not going to be easy. The Utes have a great defense and an offense that plays to BYU's defensive weaknesses. The equalizer here is that it is the rivalry game and anything can happen. We're holding a 2 game win streak over the Utes and would like to make it 3 along with being the first team to put them behind on the scoreboard at the end of the game.
Go Cougs!!
