Do you think BYU will beat Utah?
The Holy war is now coming to sin city. The Las Vegas Bowl is probably the most exciting bowl to be played besides the playoffs. This is an intense rivalry game, it cannot get any better than that! Although, will this be the year that the cougars FINALLY show Utah who is boss? Probably not, here is why..
BYU's offense + Utah's defense =
Those emoji's are referring to the BYU fan if you were wondering...
If you look at my past post "Utah Survives an Upset from California," I state that Utah's defense is actually quite decent. That is probably the nicest thing I will ever say about Utah, but I am not kidding, I really said it, "I will give Utah credit for one thing, their defense is actually pretty good. I was really surprised how well they pressured the offense."
Another threat to BYU is, of course the one and only, Devonate Brooker. He is no where near as awesome as Derek Henry, but he has the potential. He has about 268 carries, 1261 yards, and 11 touchdowns. I still have that poll up for who should be considered for Heisman and apparently everybody is favoring Brooker, so we shall see the outcome.
I will give credit to BYU for one thing, Tanner Magnum is ten times a better quarterback than Travis Wilson. Magnum's stats do show what he is capable of. Magnum can do well under pressure, Wilson not so much.
I am also sure everybody knows that Bronco Mendenhall is leaving (hallelujah), so who do you think will be BYU's head coach? I have some pretty good ideas. I think if BYU wins Utah in the Las Vegas bowl, they will probably try to convince Kyle Whittingham to come back to his alma mater, however, the pay cut would be a tough sell. The other option BYU has for a coach, which actually surprised me is Darrell Bevell. Those of you who need a refresher, he is the Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator. If you need to be deeply soaked, he led the team to the Super bowl XLVIII win. Pretty cool, right? Maybe he can help BYU get some decent wins.
Alright, the time has come, Who do you think will win? ESPN is already saying Utah is favored to win by 59.6%. Do you agree?
