@azgreg How many yards passing and running will we see from Mt. Tate? The first quarter alone for both sides will be a pleasure to watch. Best of luck-TVRC

Frankly I have no idea. I'm really concerned about our o-line. We might be starting a walk on at center Saturday.

I think the key for BYU is keeping Tate under 50 rushing yards, Arizona's starting RB under 75, and the team under 200. That's all possible. We'll see.

My concern is that even accomplishing the above, BYU won't get many sacks or QB hurries, thus allowing a running QB to pick apart our defense through the air for many touchdowns.

Bronco would send the kitchen sink against that OL. We will see what our D does. We better get some pressure on the QB.

If we see our same failed, sit-back-and-wait, no pressure, no multiple looks, lack of disguising, vanilla scheme from last year, I'm gonna go ballistic.

Then start going ballistic because if you think anything is going to change after 2 years of trying the same thing with the same D coordinator then you would be the one who is crazy.

I think it's going to go one of two ways:

- Close game that turns on late 4th-quarter play
- A Heisman candidacy kickoff party for Khalil Tate.

Given how good our defense has been - our best hope for winning is that it actually go both of these ways (Toledo)
