thank you for posting these, I usually miss them live. I like that he mentioned last year’s game. We seemed to do well against Florida keeping that in mind.

I hope that we pick up a non-con with UCLA and/or San Diego State if possible. Keep that so-cal presence going. I really like the idea of picking up another non-con in Florida over time as well. We’ll have plenty of conference games in Texas. Just think we need to keep physical presence in CA, TX, FL for recruiting.

I think we ought to wear red hats that say in big white letters “make the big 12 great again”. That’s the attitude

[EmersonUte]

that’s fascinating. Makes me wonder if we will see (or maybe already are starting to see) talent get away from the running back position. Seems like they’ve been heavily de-valued. Conversely its a spot we seem to always be able to get better than average guys in.

My excitement is based on just surviving and advancing each week. Our schedule is crazy difficult, lots of ranked road games, but defense travels. If we manage just to survive this week, we get a chance to survive next week. The odds are small, but we have a schedule that will leave absolutely no questions if we manage to come out on top of the PAC.

I mean, we already have a win over a now-ranked SEC team. You saw the Gators run rough-shod over Tennessee right? Holy cow. Swamp in effect for sure, but man they looked much better when not playing our front 7.

So….. I agree with OnlyU. We owe UCLA something after the egg we laid last year. That freshman QB is ridiculously talented, but he’s also about to face a defense unlike anything he’s ever seen. Jayden Daniels never looked worse than he did as a Freshman in Rice Eccles. Dante Moore’s about to get that treatment.

Tony’s here all week! Try the veal!
I’m trying to resist the urge to use ‘that’s what she said’…

I hope you’re right, but my money is on BYU not becoming the most hated. You have to actually win to be the most hated. And BYU is a long ways away from that. When we went to the Pac-12 we sucked the recruiting air right out of the State of Utah. BYU will not get the same recruiting bump that we did.

So here’s hoping that we’re actually more hated. Not for the few dicks on twitter, but for coming into the conference and playing really good football and handing out some painful losses to others along the way.

totally agree with this.  Pepa getting double teamed all game every game by the time we play Baylor.  

I also think Levani Damuni gets up to speed much quicker than Mo Diabate did last year and leads the team in tackles.

also predicting our new kicker becomes a fan favorite with a giant cheer for every….single….touchback…. all season long.

I hope you are right.  It just seems like TV is driving everything.  I hope its not the case.
