Week 7 - #6 BYU (6-0) vs Cinci (xxx) – Thurs Oct 15, 2015 – 7:00 EST – ESPN

This game was moved to Thursday night earlier in the year and BYU agreed to do it if they got the ESPN slot and a non-late slot as well…ESPN was happy to oblige given the fact that BYU is top-10 and already being discussed as potential CFP/NC team.

BYU’s young secondary has mostly been hidden due to great pressure by front 7 and some pretty sub-par opposing QB performances. Gunner Kiel is not sub-par. He shreds BYU’s defense for almost 400 yards, but, thankfully, Taysom and Co can keep pace.

Cincinatti cannot stop BYU on the ground, and BYU racks up almost 500 yards rushing…201 by Jamaal, Taysom had 155, Brown with 54 and even Blackmon got into the mix on a fly sweep that he took 44 yards to the house.

Gunner Kiel proves a slinger against BYU’s D but BYU falls on the right end of a shoot-out classic…41-31.

Player of the Game – Jamaal Williams – 28 rushes, 201 yds, 2 TD’s, 4 catches, 58 yds
