My concerns are offense. If we get snuffed at the line and fail to pick up sufficient downs via rushing, do we have sufficient moxey to pick up downs via the air. We will lose or make games unbearably close due to our kicking game. It appears Bronco will suffer some of Lavell's woes for not focusing upon kicking game enough.

How will defense fare if it's on the field too much.

BYU 31, UCLA 21

UCLA 27 BYU 21

We have a chance, but I think the bruins will wear down our front 7 by the end of the game. I would love to stick it to Olson though.

Olsen has as much incentive to beat BYU as BYU does to beat UCLA and Olsen.

UCLA 26 BYU 17

Sorry I didn't see this thread. I wouldn't have posted my other one. I note there are some non-homers on here picking BYU so I am not the only one.

Score, let's go with 28-24 BYU.

31-16 UCLA. BYU misses a PAT, but gets a field goal.

I know that y'all are thrilled that BYU beat Arizona, and you see my Ute moniker and think oh shut up you anti-homer, but I think UCLA will expose BYU the way Boise State did Utah last year. Utah was riding a 3-game winning streak going into that game, but they hadn't seen the likes of BSU in any of those teams. This Saturday the Bruins will exploit the loss of BYU's key personnel from last season and have their way with them through three quarters.

Ok...I'm changing mine (9/6/07)
