Sell. Inexperienced QBs and RBs = turnovers aplenty. Maybe not quite Gary Crowton levels of turnovers, but we could likely see the highest under Bronco.

Putnam will start every game at DE, Buy or Sell?

SELL. I think we will be a run first offense, especially if Riley starts, with a pass-option style attack.

BUY or SELL: If Nelson starts at QB this year, we redshirt guys like Apo and Phillips.

Sell. I think both have assured themselves of playing time.

So'oto starts every game at DE this year, Buy or Sell?

This is simply a bump to push this thread back up to the top. For any of you who have time to peruse 14 pages of posts (I only went through 2+ pages) you may find it interesting how right...and HOW WRONG so many of us were/are!

Maybe some new threads (away from independence, Jaime Hill, 2 QB's and why our receivers cannot catch) can be added to our discussion based on some of these predictions. FWIW, some are hilarious and we're only 5 games into the season!

Go Cougs!!!

Buy or Sell, Heaps throws 3 TD passes against SDSU.

Cougarbib

BUY

Question: Who is MOST and LEAST likley to catch them, "SDSU", Chambers, Jacobsen, DiLuigi, Hoffman, or "LUKE ASHWORTH"? PS - two "HIINT"s are included in the question.

Buy/Sell: We'll see Nelsen run the option with Luigi a couple plays a game this year

BUY, Doman is the QB coach and that was one of his favoritest plays as QB; there's that AND the normal concern about exposing your QB to LB and corner shots is slightly mitigated by the fact that should Nelson get hurt, QB problem solved (Cade Cooper anyone?).

(What a terrible thing to think... BAD Claw! Bad Claw!)

Now I have to go back and look at our predictions. Here was one of mine. I think I got this one right.

Buy/Sell - BYU football has to replace 2 coaches after this year?

Sell, the year for assts to cash in will be 2013... Anae and Hill won't get good enough offers to leave before then

Well, Hill got an offer he couldn't refuse....literally. And it wasn't really an "offer" ;)

Buy/sell: BYU finds adequate replacements at TE for the offense this year.

BUY. The three headed beast that is Muelhmann, Mahina and Wilson are going to be awesome. Two of the 3 will make an immediate impact and carry on the tradition of great BYU tight ends. Did I mention that all three are FRESHMAN?????

Yeah, it's turned out to be a beast of a position for us.....

BUy/Sell: BYu Football needs to replace two coaches at the end of the season either because they leave, or we need an upgrade.

Sell. I think a lot of our coaches are exactly where they want to be. Depending on success, Hill may get a shot at a head coaching gig, which I believe is what he's aiming for eventually.

Yeah, maybe at Wasatch Elementary?

Buy or Sell: 1,200 yards receiving for McKay Jacobson in 2010.
Sell: 1145 yards. just shy. :evil:

Well, he only needs 1,032 more yards.....

Buy/Sell: There will be a QB controversy at the end of the year.

Sell: I think Bronco is too good of a coach to let a season long QB controversy destroy his team.

Yeah, he's so good it only takes two weeks! :whistle:

Buy or Sell: A group of fans will again call for Bronco's (or Anae's or Hill's) head if we lose even one game this year.

Buy: There will always be that unreasonable faction of the fanbase that will call for Bronco's head every year we don't get to a BCS bowl and for Anae's head if we don't score 50+ points every game.

Nailed it.

Buy or Sell: A 2:1 TD:INT ratio for BYU's QBs in 2010.

Buy. 16 TDs, 8 Interceptions sounds easily doable. Especially if you count rushing TDs.

3:4 after FIVE games. 4:4 if you count Riley's rushing TD.

Sell. Unless we lose to freakin' Nevada.

Sell. After Washington, most of the home games are snoozers.

Florwood---you saw this coming????

Buy/Sell - BYU continues the trend of NOT losing to any MWC team outside of the "Big Three"

Buy! The only team I'm even remotely worried about outside the "Big Three" is Air Force, and we have their number. Teams that play assignment football shouldn't have any major problems with an option attack.

The funniest part about reading all of these is the undoubting certainty and enthusiasm behind the predictions.We need to do this every offseason.
