CougarCast: BYU Sports

Losing to Utah State is always a big indictment on the BYU Football program. What sort of changes will occur because of it? Zach Wilson vs. Tanner Mangum. The similarities of 2016 and 2018. 

Hawaii's offense is good. Stopping it is going to be a very difficult task. Does BYU possibly have a way to keep up with their opponents scoring? Or does BYU have a way to slow down their scoring?

 

 

On this week's episode of CougarCast, Keith takes a look at how BYU has enough strength to keep up but doesn't have the speed. Plus, DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE AGGIES. 

Chris Peterson is one of the 5 best coaches in college football. Why is he so tough to beat? 

Plus, how my favorite Sushi Chef reminded me and taught me about Tanner Mangum.

Can BYU really improve to 4-1 with two road wins over Top 11 ranked teams? Can BYU and its fans really have that many nice things?

 

It is almost impossible to not be super optimistic about BYU Football. Frankly, fans should be!

What's the harm in smiling, having fun, and believing? Nothing. So long as you don't freak out when the Cougars don't have as good of a Saturday as they did last Saturday in Camp Randall.

In this episode:

What the win over Wisconsin may be able to tell us about the future of BYU Football.

A first quarter of the season review. Plus, a look forward at the rest of the schedule.

Then a look at what a game McNeese Cowboys team does well and how BYU can avoid being upset. 

Lastly, a dive into the evolution of the BYU offense and how opponents are going to try to attack it in the weeks to come.

Go Cougars!

The host of CougarCast has some exciting personal news! Plus, is it time to finally sell that property on Tanner Mangum island? Lastly, there probably isn't a good time for BYU to face a Top 10 opponent, but this really doesn't feel like its good timing. However, unexpected upsets do happen, so Keith investigated 4 of the biggest upsets in recent college football history to figure out the anatomy of an upset.

BYU picks up a season-opening victory over the University of Arizona. Let's take a look at the key aspects of the game plans constructed by the Y coaching staff to see how it was done. Plus, a discussion about jet sweeps. Finally, a look into the Cal Bear where Keith slowly talks himself into Cal being trash.

-- The biggest hurdle and goal for the BYU Football program on the field is beating their rival, the University of Utah. (21:30)
