[QUOTE="CuseJacket, post: 11511, member: 274"] Completely agree. I've watched the better part of two different BYU games this year (vs. Texas and vs. Utah) - 1) Van Noy looks like an NFL linebacker physically and with what he's done on the field 2) Without question GT's emotion/motivation is the X factor. Coming out fired up won't guarantee a win, but if we can avoid the post-Miami letdown that hit us a year ago then we can play with those old guys. I'm no football expert but our defensive gameplan seems straightforward (tell me when this starts to sound familiar)... Sell out to stop the run and force Hill to beat us with his arm. Hill and Williams are big athletes and extremely tough to tackle. The issue will be magnified if we are consistently trying to tackle them in open space. If we don't stop those two on the ground then it's game over... our O will not keep up. If we stuff the run then I like our chances. BYU is not impressive throwing the ball around. Hill has had moments of brilliance throwing but it hasn't been there consistently for 60 minutes. If BYU beats us by being one-dimensional/throwing then that will mean one of two things - 1) Hill had a game above and beyond what he's normally capable of, or 2) Our pass coverage and secondary is a complete mess. I'm willing to take our chances here, and it would shock me if our coaches don't prepare the same way. Easier said than done though. [/QUOTE]
