and BYU will have to play one of their best games of the season to beat UofA.
Alabama's defense is very good but if Johnson can continue to play like the senior qb he is they will score a couple of TD's at best and at least get Sukoda within range to puts points on the score board. Bama's offense will be surprised by the Utah D and will remain ineffective. I think it will be a close, low scoring game.
BYU will have to be firing on all cylinders on offense to get a win. That simply means better coaching starting with a solid game plan by Anae. He has to be willing to establish the run first and throw second. If he takes what the Defense gives him -- which will be pass, pass, pass -- and puts the ball in Hall's hands there will be turnovers. The UofA offense will score points. The question is will BYU control the game by running the football and playing just good enough on D or will they be playing catchup football all night long? If it's catch-up football they will lose.
Let's hope neither team embarrasses. Bad losses by both teams could set the conference back significantly and completely erase what has been accomplished this season just like the Hawaii loss did to the WAC. Furthermore, I'm not convinced TCU is going to roll Boise. Imagine if all 3 MWC teams lose!
Last note: sorry Babs, but Florida is going to thump the Sooners.
