It has been awhile since BYU Football has been this fun to watch. Zach Wilson's command and trust in Dax Milne is thrilling stuff. Will it continue against Texas State? Hard to think it won't.

The Cougars have opened the season perfectly. Can they keep it going against UTSA? I think they should! Also, Zach Wilson has played the best 3 consecutive games of football by a BYU QB since 2009 -- and the nation is paying attention. What could that mean?

In this episode of CougarCast:
- A break down of BYU Football's first released depth chart
- Can BYU's offense get out of the gates quickly? If they can, BYU's chances of winning increase immensely again Navy.
- Watching out for Navy Linebacker Diego Fagot. He's a beast.
- Is it terrifying that Ilaisa Tuiaki is freely admitting that he has never had to game plan for and defend a triple-option offense? YES!
- BYU's depth chart on defense had 14 positions listed, but you can only play 11 guys? What does all that mean for the Cougars D?
- How to tell if BYU defense is holding their own against the Navy Triple Option (other than just looking at rushing yards).
- Ken Niumatalolo's success at Navy is astonishing.
- Outside of FB Jamale Carothers, Navy's offensive personnel is unproven.
- Is the game against Navy the challenge of the season for the Y?

Pandemics aren't great. Last week it was announced that the Big Ten and the Pac-12 would only be playing college football within their own conference. That means that BYU lost 5 of their 12 games on the schedule. Goodbye Utah, Michigan State, Arizona State, Minnesota, and Stanford.
What does it mean for seeing Cougar football in 2020? Bad news friends.
The cancellation of these games brings about an interesting new chapter to COVID-19's impact on the college football season -- the legal battles. Can a team claim the Force Majeure clause if they play 9 conference games?

With the cancellation of the NCAA tournament, the BYU Cougars won't get a chance to ever find out what their March Madness fate would've been. Strangely, that is probably good news for the legacy of this team, Yoeli Childs, and TJ Haws. Despite that, they would have certainly rather had the chance to play it out. Now, as fans and historians, we are left to the theater of the mind -- which is almost exclusively more kind than reality. The "Forever 27" Cougars.
