Dust in the Wind: BYU vs. Kansas

[Bo Diddley]

Nice D there.

C'mon Cougs, need to keep this drive alive.

Without the shot to the chops, this is a 17 - 7 game. I like our chances.

Hard fought 1st half. I'll take a 3 point lead going in to the locker room.

Also, is there quite a bit of holding going on by the Kansas o-line or am I just being overly biased?.

It's not crazy but yes they have been holding more than is typically allowed. I'm also fine with it as long as they don't start flagging our lineman for holding.

We have been pretty good up front so far. Less than 50 yards rushing for Kansas at the half and I'll take that.

Very good first half overall. I'm impressed by LJ Martin's learning curve with respect to pass blocking. He had a couple of crucial blocks on the last TD drive.

And I really need not to look at CB during games. A lot really dumb takes, including "pathetic play calling" whenever a play falls flat. It happens, but often it's the result of poor execution rather than a bad play. With occasional exceptions, Roderick is doing a very good job.

Averaging 500 ypg and they have 140 at the half. I’ll take it.

i just wish we could establish a semblance of a run game.

This. Please. Please. Please.

[BigFatMeanie]

Welp, another freezing cold start coming out of the half. Lovely.

[Bo Diddley]

Ok, how about three runs now on this next drive.

[Bo Diddley]

BYU living and dying by the pass so far in the second half.

[Bo Diddley]

Lining up the field goal. Probably the right call. But a little late to try and run.

I'm just please we kept our true character and burned a timeout to call that conservative draw play to set up the field goal.

Etienne with the matador defense on that last sack. All season I've thought about an old MST3000 movie in which one of the characters was named Etienne. He was a big lug of a man and the MST commentators would say, "Etienne... that's French for ''load.'" Seems to fit.
