    I just got it. It was rattling around in my head, and it just clicked into place.

      If we lose to Tennessee, then I think it's fair to say that USC and UW are guaranteed Ls. BYU Twitter will be unbearable at 0-4.

        Guaranteed is a bit strong, but fair to say this is our best shot at picking one up in September.

          Just too difficult to predict how the two teams will react. From what little I was able to observe, the Volunteer line play is poor, which should help BYU. I'm not enamored with the way Tuiaki uses the 3-4 in stopping the run. I hope he focuses more on run defense to make their QB try to defeat BYU, as he is vulnerable to mistakes.

            I don't know. Tenn lost to a bad sunbelt team at home. We can mock USC and Helton all we want, but it's tough to see how we'd have a better shot against the Trojans after crapping the bed against the Volunteers. I'm not holding out any hope for a win against Washington.

              How are you differing with AA?

                  That's strong. Uw is a guaranteed loss either way-they are good and well coached. But while USC has more talent than everyone outside of bama and Clemson, they also have a bad high school coach at the helm. I can see sitaki coming up with a game plan that confuses usc. I don't think sitake is good; but he's head and shoulders above helton.

                  That said, USC might win by 28 if they want to.

                          Disagree on all of the above, so there's that as well.

                          I can't tell if Topper is serious or not, but he's right that AA and I are close...I'm just saying that losing to TN means BYU going 0-4 is a foregone conclusion and AA is saying it's extremely likely.

                            If we lose to Tennessee then 6-6 is the ceiling for this team. This game is a must-win to keep any upside at all in this season.

                              Yeah, a loss on Saturday could be an indicator that 4-8 is likely. USF, UMass, Liberty, and Idaho State are the only patsies. I don't know much about SDSU, but before the wheels fell off last season, they beat Arizona State and Boise State (note: they beat Weber St. 6-0 on Saturday, so I'm optimistic that we have a fifth win against the Aztecs).

                                Let me get this straight. If we don't upset an SEC team on the road, we are doomed to a 4-8 season?
