To me, the Mississippi State game is our trap game of the year. I like our chances better at home against Utah and Wisconsin than our chances on the road in humid Mississippi at 1 pm.

For what its worth I agree (with respect to Utah) I think we looked better at Utah last year than we looked against Mississippi State at home (despite the outcome of the two games). I personally think that Miss State on the road will be our second toughest game this year

I voted for the Ewetes over Mississippi St. too. Home game, will be favored, and we are due. I don't care that MSU only had 6 wins last year - it's a mid-season road game in SEC country, where injuries could be an issue....

But, the Holy War game is our most important game. Need to get a W more than any other contest.

My personal feelings are that Utah could be fielding a team of 10 players and it would still be BYU's toughest game because BYU finds a way to make mental mistakes and beat themselves against the Utes.

Sitake will have them ready. This year won't be the same in terms of mistakes against Utah. It will be a tough game but the least tough of those listed.


If ye love the tranquility of servitude better than the contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.
