SinkingQuffa Intervention Needed

Despite Smoke Harris zipping through us like hot budda — our defensive speed

really isn't too shabby. But if we try lazy-tackling Houston's skill players like we did Smoke on that one run, it certainly could end up a long night for us.

I think we'll be ready & sharp for Houston. Like we were for quarters 2-4 on Fri.

Criddle talked about this last year. BYU actually had a better record on turf

So, we win by only three touchdowns, instead of five.

I'm not thinking it'll be a cakewalk but 3 months to prepare could be a disaster

If we can't handle Houston we don't deserve our ranking. Game should be circled

I guess the sceptic has reason to question how much different or better

I originally read this as septic, and was all prepared for jokes about tanking

Come on. You don't think that ridiculous attempt at a lame shoulder tackle

I think that long TD against LaTech was good for the defense.

The Dark Knight

10/8/20 8:46am

Yeah, I don't think Tech (or Smoke) got easy after that.

And if a football game was comprised of just one single play, BYU would have been toast.

Have they still not played a game? I know they had several cancellations.

fulano

They play their first today

10/8/20 7:59am

We have no idea what Houston is and neither do they.

Turnpike Lane

10/8/20 7:51am

Cuz they’ll be in mid-season form

deliciousmocha

Did they decide to just skip over prep for the Tulane game?

Charles Darwin

10/8/20 7:52am

they haven't even watched BYU film yet, let alone any prep

BlueFrog

USC had a lot of speed

puntersarepeople

10/8/20 7:59am

Personally, I’ll take extra game experience over extra prep time.

Is this some "Houston we have a problem" joke?

Genghis Spreads

Nah...game experience is huge.

UH is bringing back most of their production from 2019–#3. They may be good.

Benfica1

10/8/20 9:11am

They also sucked so I'm not sure

puntersarepeople

10/8/20 9:24am

they struggled on D, but Clayton Tune is a good QB, and they have an NFL talent

Avery

10/8/20 9:32am

59% completion in spread system with 11TDs and 9 INTs is not exactly good

Charles Darwin

10/8/20 9:36am

Keep in mind our team was less than impressive last year, last year's stats

Avery

10/8/20 10:14am

As I said, If he improved there is plenty to worry about but what he has shown

Charles Darwin

10/8/20 10:21am

we'll see how he does tonight. I'm kinda hoping you're right

Avery

10/8/20 10:27am

I hope he is better because he need Houston to be good

Charles Darwin

10/8/20 11:18am

We should be able to score on them

puntersarepeople

10/8/20 11:22am

True.

Did their game tonight get cancelled?

It is a problem for Houston. They still haven't played a down of real football

Better question... have they been tackling in practice bc if not....

Pretorian

10/8/20 11:35am

Are you sayingThat we should only play teams that are really slow?

travelcoug

10/8/20 11:14am

Only 1 true concern I have for the UH game...

Pretorian

10/8/20 11:36am

Only true question I have is whether or not they will play the game.
