The BYU vs Wyoming Box Score

We should be very very concerned about going into Provo for a late game. Wyoming (0-3) rushed 33 times for only 77 yards. BYU threw for over 300 yards.
Definitely need to have our A game, but Wyoming is historically bad. They put up 114 total yds vs Arizona State.

BYU's defense is salty, we need to expect that they will be a tough game. They have the best defense we've played this season thus far ahead of Tulane. I'm not sure what to make of their offense yet and I don't think Wyoming was a good barometer. Wyoming not a good football team, especially on defense. I watched BYU play SMU and was not impressed with their offense. SMU is an average at best football team. Now, that was a game in Dallas and not Provo. Provo is a tough environment.

If we play at the level we did against Arizona, we will have no issue beating BYU. If we play like we did in the first half against Tulane, we will come away with an L.

you guys, please. k-state should roll byu. yes, they can defend wyoming and smu. but their offense is offensive. i don't see this one being a nail bite.

BYU has trouble with mobile running qbs.

-S. Illinois' qb rushed for 121 yds and a TD and had one 38 yard run
-SMU qb ran for 38
-Wyoming qb had 32 yds and 2 rushing TDS

You would think the Okie State & K-State game will be on prime time on ESPN or ABC/FOX. I don't see a better matchup regardless of the fact I am a KSU fan.

Not that it really matters, but do we believe the pundits really do like this K-State team after a 3-0 start or is this all an attempt to hype the Oklahoma State matchup the following weekend for the sake of TV ratings?

Does anyone know what the "K-State/Visitor Section" is at West Virginia? I'm planning on going and would like to be surrounded by, or at the very least near, other Wildcat fans.

I am trying to believe this will be an exciting game so I can stay awake to watch it.
A snoozer game won't be good.
A high octane performance from the Cats would help.

always a conspiracy. :roll:

this could be a top 10 matchup of two schools with relatively small national followings. thus, it will be interesting to see if one of the morning pregame shows actually comes to mhk should the pokes and cats prevail saturday. dan mullen has k-state at #10, oSu #13. his overall rankings are solid other than texas should be #1, imho.
