Line opened with BYU as 4 point favorites and they are now favored by 1 TD at home.
From a talent standpoint alone this is a winnable game for us. The big unknown is the team's mental state of mind. The team and coaches are likely going through the lowest of lows and now have to play an out of conference game in a very difficult venue.
IF the team shows up to play then we have a great chance of taking this one. That is a very big IF though. A win in Provo could change the tide of the season even without the ACC championship in the picture, especially with many folks putting this game in the same category of toughness as VT and Miami.
There's not a lot of shame in losing to VT and Miami even though we really could have won those. I hope the team and coaches are motivated to play out the rest of the season to the best of their ability. There is still a lot at stake for the team and especially the seniors to go out on a positive note.
