    BYU opens as a 17 point dog. Probably about right but I think they cover.

      Depends on who you ask. I'd bet the typical ortho CS member....

        Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

          What about swear words in foreign languages?

                        From Chris Peterson:

                        (On BYU) “The number-one thing is, completely different than what we just saw. I mean, 180 degrees. On defense they’re different, exact opposite. And on offense, the similarity is they really run the ball like Arizona State, did a nice job of running the ball. But this offense is something we haven’t seen and won’t see again in terms of others shifts and motions and fly sweep action. It’s extremely unique, do a nice job with it. It’s a little bit like option football in terms of really making you play assignment-sound. You have to do your job before you can chase the ball. They’ve got a nice system off it, done a good job.”
                        (more on BYU offense) “You guys should take a look at the tape. It is extremely different how they’re running the ball. There’s so many spread teams, the zone-read game — there’s none of that. But they have their own unique way to keep the defense honest with this fly-sweep game. Half of it is running the fly sweep and half of it is running the ball. You’re going to see a quarterback take a snap from under center and drop back and throw a pass. How often do you see that? With no play-action. He takes a straight drop and throws it. It’s a unique style. That’s the beauty of college football — you’re always getting something different in terms of everybody’s got their signature way of doing things. Which is different than the NFL, certainly.”

                        (on BYU defense …) “They’ve done a great job with it. They really have. It’s a unique style, again, where they’re playing really good defense — nobody’s scored a bunch of points on them. They’re super sound, and I think a lot it has to do with their offense and what (their defense) sees all the time — you’ve got to have great eyes and you’re not going to take chances with blitz. They play it tight, they play it in front of you. Sometimes when guys are taking chances with all these different blitzes, if you can pick it up you can get a lot of space out there, you can get a lot of one-on-one type stuff. This is the exact opposite. They’re going to keep things in front. They seem them, they’ve got great help and they’ve got great eyes in terms of the RPO game because of all the stuff their offense goes at them.

                        (on recruiting BYU QB Tanner Mangum out of Eagle, Idaho …) “Heck of a player. We liked him a lot. I cannot believe he’s still playing college football. I’m like, huh? But he was an awesome kid back in high school even. Just really liked him. Then he went on his mission and then went to BYU. He’s been there a long time, seen a lot of things, seen a lot of defense, played a lot of football. He’s an experienced fifth-year — kind of fifth year — kind of quarterback.”

                          Hey come on, Babs. Pelagius's legacy is filled with toast-worthy items.
                          1) Carefully reasoned estimates of BYU's odds in upcoming athletic contests.
                          2) Never-ending ways to apply Bayes theorem.
                          3) A python script to automate the score prediction contest.
                          4) Photos of his massive guns.

                          Sadly, #3 is on hiatus this season.

                          For the record, pelagius was often most vigilant about policing titles, but I always agreed 100% and have edited several myself.

                            Yeah shocker that you love a policy that lets you ruin fun and exercise authority.

                            Ps. If you were such a big fan of pelagius you wouldn't use smilies to honor him. He hates them.

                              I know he does. That was part of the joke.

                              Have a great day!

                                Pretty good breakdown of Washington's run defense here:

                                How big of a problem is this going to be for the jet sweep/fly sweep that's been our bread and butter when receivers drop passes?
