I missed both games that BYU lost, so I'm not sure what happened, but I personally don't think they will be that bad. 8-4 still is a good season in my book. I was a student during the crowton era, and any win was cause for celebration. If we get 8, and a bowl game, I'll be happy.
Air Force will be a real test, but I think the Y can take them. At home, BYU is a different team, methinks. I would like nothing less than to see BYU-Utah battling it out for the MWC championship in Provo in November. I'd be giddy for that... Oh yeah, and TCU getting beat up by UNLV. That would make me giddy too.

Wow, nicely said Ice. What a difference a week makes, no doubt. Rolla-Coasta!

Hopefully the roller coaster is over and we will repeat last years record. Nice win for the Cougs against Air Force. I hope the defense is now grounded and will remain humble after Tulsa.

No, rough weekend for me... Was going to fly down with my friend, but every plan I had fell apart, ended up watching it at home.
I'll be at EW though. Got my new big-ace lens to try out. Should be good.

Could've been worse, we could've played Utah St. this year, who is much worse the Eastern Washington...
Or I could just say U-N-L-V. Those four letters will haunt Utah for the rest of this season...

The difference is Tulsa didn't cost BYU a shot at the conference championship. UNLV, on the other hand....
BTW, pics of Eastern Washington are up... www.danransom.com/blog

Hey what do you guys think. The first 3 or 4 games I thought Max Hall was much better then John Beck ever was in his first 2 years. However, Max Hall has a stable of good running back around him. In fact I am not sure that BYU has EVER had this many good backs at one time. Is Max Hall further along than Beck at this stage or does he just have better support around him?

Definitely farther along than Beck was...
Mentally, Max is on a whole different plane. Beck was a mental head case for the longest time, simply because his coaches didn't instill confidence in him. Max, on the other hand, is a gamer. He doesn't care about making mistakes, he just wants to win, and he is very confident. He is an unconscious gun slinger... Very Favre-esque in my opinion. He might throw a few dumb picks, but if I wanted someone to lead my team, and it was between Beck and Hall, I'd take all every time. It took Beck until his senior year at TCU to develop that killer mentality.
As for running backs, BYU has some good ones right now, but let's not forget Curtis Brown so quickly. Beck had him for three years. Brown is arguably the best all around RB to ever play at the Y. (Though Unga could supplant him, if he keeps it up) And let's be honest, BYU only has one good back right now. Fui isn't full speed yet, and Tonga is playing mainly fullback.

Got agree with the big carpet meister. Beck isn't even close to the quarter back that Hall is. Right on the money when talking about confidence. Beck choked sooo many times in key moments. Hall gets it done.
