Tough Saturday

Well events like the one that happened yesterday are what have taught me to not allow myself to develop any hope towards BYUs football program. When it comes down to it they just don't have what it takes to become one of the nations elites. Dont get me wrong, they can play some incredible games, and can compete with just about anyone in the country...but they are just too inconsistent. They just cant manage to put a full season together. BYU is a great team that pulls together and plays well in many situations, but the fact of the matter is that from time to time they just get out-played by the athleticism of other teams. Florida State was just too fast for BYUs defense and tore them apart. Its too bad....BYU can kiss their magical season goodbye.

The BYU game wasn't the only disappointing outcome from Saturday's lineup. USC lost a tough one to UW up in Seattle but Pete Carroll proved his point of why he chose to start Matt Barkley over Aaron Corp. Corp struggled all game to get anything going for SC. SC was held to just 110 passing yards which is the fewest passing yards SC has posted under Pete Carroll. Hopefully the Trojans can get into a rhythm on offense and begin to score some offensive points like they have been known to do in the past.

Lastly the Utah loss to Oregon just leaves the Mountain West one step further from gaining national respect as one of the country's elite conferences.
