Congratulations BYU!

J.J. Looks like he might just almost make up for the loss of Harvey and I am astonished at how well the 2QB system worked. Defense was solid as predicted.

But now let's get to what we all want to:

Which team had the more impressive win?

EDIT: Oops, I meant between Utah and BYU. Never too soon for sibling rivalry.

Congrats to the board BYu fans. Good win against a solid opponent.

I would have to go with the U, because of the ranking of their opponant. Of course we will have to see how the season plays out to see for sure

[U-Ute]

I agree, however, with the sentiment of this thread. Congrats on beating U-Dub and the all-everything Jake Locker. Listening to the hype this week, you'd think that Tim Tebow wears a WWJLD wristband.

What I saw of the game, it seemed the 2QB system was managed well. It seemed like I saw Neilson in the game whenever BYU was moving the ball. Will there be mass BoM burnings if he is named the permanent starter?

DeLuigi was much more effective than I expected him to be as well.

Congrats!

That's the problem with the first few weeks. For all we know Pitt will lose 7 games and UW will win the Pac-10. (Okay both of those are extremely unlikely but you get my point ... )

Utah beat a better team and did so by overcoming many uncharacteristic mistakes. BYU beat a worse team and needed the stupid mistakes UW made on special teams and the stupidest coaching call I have seen in some time. I think Pitt is a 35-50ish team and UW is a 50-75ish team.

I fully expect Pitt to do well in the Big East and they'll very likely be in a BCS bowl. Man, how the hell does that conference have an AQ spot?

Washington will be around .500. They'll beat a team in the Pac-10 they should lose to. But they'll also lose to some teams they should beat.

We'll see.

Here's to Locker being the Apple Cup King!

[ERCougar]

Way too early to tell. You'd have to give it to Utah at this point because they looked more dominant against a higher-ranked team.

BUT,
I'm not convinced Pitt's any good. Maybe that's Utah making them look bad. I also think Polk may be as good a back or better than Lewis, and as average as Locker looked, he's still a far cry better than Sunseri. Of course, maybe that's BYU making them look good.

So, it's too early to tell, but I'll give the early edge to Utah.

[LA Ute]

I think BYU deserves props for a nice win with a young team and a whole new QB setup. Both BYU and Utah learned a lot about their strengths and weaknesses. (Utah learned that maybe Shaky Smithson ought to change his nickname, and BYU learned that UW's long snapper is their buddy.) In about 6 weeks we'll have a better idea about whether Pitt and UW were strong opponents.
