BYU Football

BYU football is the greatest! If it is possible, I actually look forward to BYU football even more than I do Fantasy Football. I can’t get enough of it. August can’t come soon enough for me (and no, that is not because that is my birthday.) This season looked early on to be a re-building year to fill all the gaps left on the team, and particularly that of John Beck. But the team sailed through their first game and all seemed well. The next few weeks were rough with losses to UCLA and Tulsa that should have both been wins. But then the team went on to win 10 in a row, including a last second win over UCLA in the Las Vegas Bowl when Eathyn Manumaleuna got his big right paw on the field goal attempt by the previously perfect Kai Forbath from 28 yards away. Two straight seasons of running the Mountain West Conference undefeated and the Cougars look to be set for a long time with a program full of sophomores on offense including Max Hall, Austin Collie, and freshman Harvey Unga.

Next season looks promising for the Cougars with a schedule full of very winnable games. Not to jump the gun or anything, but can you say “Fiesta”?
