Originally posted by Sleeping in EQ View PostI think the Cougars win this game by 10. Some commentators are, I think, undervaluing our defense when they describe us as "lucky" and so forth. I'm not an expert or anything, but people who do know more about defense--like Hans Olsen--say that we pick up so many turnovers because we confuse offenses, hide our coverage in a manner that is reminiscent of the pros, and have more field smarts than the average team. Vegas has us at -3.5 and I'd take that in a heartbeat.
Kind of annoying to see so many BYU fans still worried about this team. Are we the best team in the country? Of course not. Will we lost one of the next 3 games? It's a real possibility. But the constant buying into Vegas lines and worrying about "being exposed" gets so old. This term has earned the right to have some faith put in it, IMO.

I feel good about this game too, mostly because of the defense. I don't think it gets talked about enough, but most of the negative stats for our defense have come either in the first half of games or during garbage time when the win is firmly in hand. Our second half defense has been nails all season, which shows how effective our half time adjustments have been.

Kansas vs. BYU Preview and Prediction | PFF
"Kansas is a good team with a bad record."
8th highest graded offense in the nation - Kansas.
They have untimely TOs...sounds like our defense should be able to feast on this. They are the most un-clutch team in the country...vs the most clutch team in the country (BYU)
Jake Retzlaff This Season
80.3 Passing Grade
90.9 Passing Grade when Kept Clean (12th in nation)
90.5 Passing Grade when Not Blitzed (6th)
43.9 Passing Grade when Under Pressure (82nd)
57.6 Passing Grade when Blitzed (115th)
I haven't seen us do a lot of screens. If teams know that's his weakness, it stands to reason that all opponents from here on out will blitz a lot. Hopefully we have some plays prepared for this.
Picks
Kansas 37-34 over BYU
BYU 31-27 over Kansas
