My answers
(1) Will BYU be on its A game?
It's hard to know which team will show up. Generally the team has played well at home so I think you'll be seeing a motivated BYU team tomorrow. We rarely sell out anymore, but there will still be around 58K or so fans.

(2) Does your D perform better against mobile QBs or pocket passers?
There's a myth out there that BYU doesn't do well against mobile QBs. We've actually defended them quite well over the past few years. The offenses that have given us fits are ones who can hold off a rush for five seconds with pocket passers who can through accurate deep balls.

(3) I know you guys have been plagued by injuries this year just like we have and I've heard your getting a few back this week. What's the overall health of the team going into this week?
Sounds like we'll have more bodies back this week than we've had since the opener. Of course we're missing the one guy who might well have been the most gifted athlete to play QB at BYU.

(4) What's the best way to slow down your offense? I saw a post on here explaining that if a team can get real physical with your tall WRs then it may frustrate them, is that true?
That seems to be true. If you can be physical and keep them away from the middle of the field it seems to kill us.

(5) I know that BYU has 'P5' aspirations just like we do but if the AAC continued to build its brand and received a substantial pay raise is there any scenario that could induce BYU to join in order to create an easier path to a New Years Day bowl?
I have a hard time seeing BYU joining another conference other than the Big XII although I could see us joining the AAC well before going back to the MWC. There are just too many scheduling agreements seven and eight years out that seem to indicate independence is being planned for the long term. That said, if the AAC somehow got an auto-bid to an NY6 bowl, I think BYU would make the jump.

Should be a good game tomorrow. I'm expecting a shootout.
