Cool. I hope they throw BYU some extra cash or something for basically making it a home game for LSU.

Trust me, it's basically a home game in Houston too.
Ya but there will be fewer byu fans at the game due to the change.Trust me, it's basically a home game in Houston too.

Rooting for BYU but think they'll get smashed.
I know everyone else is making excuses as to why the offense sucked last week, but I just think the scheme is bad. I agree with your post, and we might not even score on them. I think the defense can keep LSU to around 24 points or so, but there's no way the offense scores that. I'm guessing the final score ends up being like 24-3 or something like that.

A few of my BYU buddies have told me that Detmer's scheme is too complicated and that the players, especially Mangum, are still having trouble adapting. I thought to myself "Isn't this the same guy that was just scoring 50ppg with High School players"? Now I won't pretend to know how Detmer's BYU offense compares with his HS offense and I realize those are two different worlds but I can't imagine Ty would be stubborn enough to bring in some sort of super complex offense to BYU and not adjust to his players.
I look at your WR's, and RB's and I just don't see a lot of speed, or game changing talent. Sitake has spent most of his coaching career under Whittingham and Kyle is the poster child for maximizing his defensive talent and struggling to catch up offensively. I think you guys are at the beginning of a similar process. You'll love watching your Defense play, your offense will make you pull your hair out, and you'll spend years asking "How can we be so good on defense and struggle so bad offensively"??
On the bright side, it looks like Whittingham may have finally figured it out and it only took a decade. If Kilane mirrors his former HC, you guys will be scoring points by 2028.
Fair post. Hopefully it doesn't take that long.A few of my BYU buddies have told me that Detmer's scheme is too complicated and that the players, especially Mangum, are still having trouble adapting.

It might be too soon to assume Whit has the offense thing figured out because of a new OC. Signs may point in the positive direction, but this new OC has not even called one game with this team yet. I've seen too many OC changes to assume anything is figured out yet. I do see the parallel you are presenting though.
I'm actually more excited about the talent. Huntley was a huge get(2016) for the Utes and Carrington should be an easy target for him. It has taken a while after moving up to the Pac12 but the Utes seem to be finally bringing in the skilled talent they need to take the next step.
As far as OC I do think that there is something different this time. Not so much in who he is but in who Kyle is. Maybe it's wishful thinking but there does seem to be a newfound humility coming from Whit regarding that side of the ball.
I don't sense that Sitake has quite the same degree of stubbornness that Whit did but I suspect he will have similar issues in recruiting offensive skill positions. Perhaps even to a greater degree with BYU being both Independent and a Mormon school.
prediction?
Not bad.34-10 LSU
This would please me lol.27-24 LSU
