BYU vs TCU 2011: The long-haired assassin goes to Dallas

[Borg]

I think this TCU game will be one of the more competitive games BYU will have had with TCU in the recent few years.

MY greatest concern is that Riley doesn't get broken in half. Love his competitiveness, but it's not like the dude is built like Cam Newton. So...here's to Riley staying healthy.

Calling the rest of the numbers a wash, these are the ones that, IMO, bode well for BYU. TCU's red zone D and 3rd down conversion D, especially.

I agree.

Josh Boyce against the Corby Eason / Travis Uale under/over pu pu platter scares the shit out of me.

[Cougarmandias]

Yeah. We know the same things about BYU before Idaho State as we did after.

Actually I thought we learned that Jake Heaps/Brandon Doman's-playcalling-when-Jake-Heaps-is-in can rise to levels of suckitude that even us cynics couldn't have imagined.

Riley is going to get his chance to meet a linebacker named Tank. Truly a match made in heaven.

This is Riley's big chance to make his bones.

Luckily for us, Tanner Brock is out for the year. He and Carder are pure nastiness together.

I had similar thoughts. Especially after the very first play they run. Nothing like calling that long out that Jake threw short on the first play to get a QB's timing and confidence going. I like Doman. I think he's a good coach and good recruiter. But I didn't expect the growing pains we'd see out of him in regards to playcalling.

One of my lds buddies commented that Riley doesn't need to wear a flack jacket because he has the armor of god. I spit my drink (sprite and Hawaiian punch of course) all over my new carpet. Good times against ISU!

So true. Doman is subconsciously sabbotaging BYU's offense when Jake is in.

Not to take this to a new thread but Doman clearly called a different game for Jake. He obviously expects more out of Jake based on the level of difficulty in his play calling. Either that or he is trying to sabotage Jakes career.

I love Tank. He plays the position like it's meant to be played. I'm super excited for this game. I only hope that my 110" projection screen has been installed by then. If it has you're all invited over. Pay no mind to the fact that only half the room is framed and the couches (waiting to choose my home theater seats) suck.

I suppose it just wasn't activated last year when he got hurt.

Is Doman aware that there is no rule that a reciever must be outside the tackle box?

I love everything about Tank except his lame ass armbands.
