Sunset isn't until 6:43 pm. Can BYU stay in the game until the vampires can come out?

Solid work from solid players against a solid team.

Might be time for him to retire. He's nearly died once from football (compartment syndrome), and now these injuries in the same leg. I wonder if it's possibly related? Some guys' bodies just don't respond to the next level and can't stay healthy. Moa seems to be one of them. It's too bad. He had talent.

He's what I think we learned:

• Legend Glasker is very good

• Bear Bachmeier is faster

• Our cornerbacks are going to make it difficult for QBs to throw against

• While we didn't get to the QB with our defense, I think we did speed up their internal clock that rushed throws

• Moa was underwhelming, Eka looked like RB2 to me

• LJ stayed healthy. We're going to need to rely on him this week and in several other big games later this year (ND, Utah, etc)

• OL pass blocking was also underwhelming. Bear didn't seem to have enough time for deeper looks

• I want to see more from Kasper, Lyons, & Saleapaga, but I think they looked the part.

• We have talent at WR & TE, I'm not as worried about the receiving corps as I was three days ago

• FCS games can be beneficial to "ease" into the season, but losing Moa & Damuni for some time, and a longer time is a reason not play them, I'd rather see 2 or 3 of these types of games after spring ball

• We have four games to figure it all out before the first big test of the season.

• Crowd looked & sounded great on TV
