*** BYU Pregame Thread ***

I don’t see how anyone can take what Campbell said about Konrardy as “he’s playing” hope I’m wrong but “trending up” seems closer to not playing than playing, to me.

It’s so very hard to watch the defense with no pass rush! What’s worse is watching the LB’s drop where two of them are in the same area or defending nothing. No one around them. What teams have done is throw longer routes - because we have no rush - and throw over them and in front of the safeties.
Heacock might need to blitz one LB on passing situations and mix up who’s blitzing. It’s better than wasting one who is doing nothing in coverage.

I think the issue is protecting our young and few in number CBs - by both, letting them focus on pass defense and not throw their body into run plays.

Not that it has been a huge benefit in defending the big play....

Going to be hard to win unless Rocco turns into prime Tom Brady... feel bad for him because he really has to win the entire game by himself (with the O Line as well, which has actually been quite good). No help from the defense, special teams, or his own receivers or tight ends lol.

I don't follow ISU as much as the majority of the people on this board since I'm a BYU fan first, but I think you've got the best QB in the conference in Rocco Becht. If there's anybody in the conference who could channel Tom Brady, it's him. BYU has had two straight games against QBs who were strong runners and relatively poor passers. This game they're going to be facing a guy with the whole package and if they're not really concerned about that, THEY SHOULD BE. He's a very smart QB with experience who really understands defenses. I could see Rocco throwing for 400 yards against BYU if he gets decent protection.

Vegas has ISU as the favorite and it's absolutely justified. For BYU to win at Jack Trice will require them to play considerably better than they have played in any game this year. If they can just keep it close I'll be happy.

Last time we played at your place, you gave Iowa State fans some cookies. Bringing any with you to Ames? (Jus kidding!)

I wish I WAS coming to Ames! Have you ever noticed how work has a bad habit of interfering with a LOT of things you'd rather do?

I am hoping to come there this winter though. I want to come to Hilton Coliseum and see some Otzball in person. You guys are so lucky to have Coach Otzelberger as your coach! He's as good as they come! I won't be coming to see BYU play because I want to cheer for ISU when I'm there.

How hard is it to get tickets to an ISU game at Hilton? Would I need to scalp them?

We give visiting fans ice cream these days. Trust me, BYU Creamery ice cream is GOOD STUFF. Might not be so welcome in November, though...

It’s pretty hard to get conference tickets, especially the BYU-ISU matchup. Would love some of that Ice Cream!!
