5-1 Midseason Musings
Posted: Sat Oct 09, 2021 5:44 pm
At this time of posting, I celebrate a 5-1 season. BYU just lost its first game in what, the last 14? No matter this turnover nonsense in what I would call the worst 2nd quarter I have seen in some time. BYU has the capability of playing with anyone at anytime.
I imagine we will be bowl eligible this season, which I admit was a lofty expectation given this schedule.
If Tyler Allgeier continues healthy and productive we have a Heisman potential player.
Cincinnati is about a year ahead of us, but we are close. I think we will remain a top 20 team and give Baylor our best shot. Kalani has leveled up the program, and the depth has improved, but sustaining depth over a whole season is still a challenge in the program. Week 6 without a bye against a Boise St team hell bent revenge = problem.
Kalani gets extra points for the Ws over instate rivals. The regional rivalry with the Broncos continues to be a thorn. I hated this loss. The win over AZ ST looks even more impressive. I think Kalani circles the wagons and goes ok, let's keep getting better. To have the team in top 10 discussion = success. We will have to fight our way back after a bad 4 turnover loss. It may be a one loss season. I was thinking well before this week that a loss of 1 of these 3 BSU, Baylor, Virginia would be an incredible success. Got to turn it around this week Cougars.
Maybe we think of this as an out of conference loss? We shall be motivated against Baylor. This is a new rivalry series in the Big12. The Baylor BYU match up will be fun to see. BYU will respond this week. And then beat Virgina too. These are my mid-season thoughts.
I am incredibly proud of our 2020 season also still. I am filled with gratitude for the overall state of the program.
5-1 ain't bad. Not at all. In fact, it is really good. Go Cougs.
