The Cougars open MWC play against Wyoming ... the Cougars fresh off their spanking of the Bruins and the Cowboys just escaped War Memorial Stadium with a come-from-behind win over the Bison (yes, that's right the FCS "powerhouse" North Dakota State) ... the outcome of the game should not be in doubt. Bronco seems to have a knack of having the team ready to play after a huge game, examples:2007-the Cougars follow up an emotional, conference-title clinching victory over the Utes at home and come back the next week to destroy San Diego State 48-27 on the road.
2006-following a major program victory against TCU in Fort Worth, the Cougs came home and defeated, ironically, San Diego State, 47-17. Freshman Kevin Craft was SDSU's quarterback that day ... he was ALSO the QB last Saturday for the Bruins and also suffered defeat. Defeat puts it nicely ...
The defense came up huge, Max Hall was as accurate as I have seen a quarterback, and I nearly lost my voice midway through the 2nd quarter when it was 35-0. It was a great game. The Cougars have so many weapons on offense it is scary to think how good they can continue to be.
Anyway, back to Bronco preparing the team ... the Cougars will come out and perform well. I would not expect a repeat of last week, but I think the Cougars' offense will roll up plenty of yards and points to get past the Cowboys.
PREDICTION:
BYU 41 WYOMING 13
