Unfortunately, my BYU Wins If...Loses If post was dead on.
I said "BYU Loses If...Jake Heaps plays like he did in the first half against Ole Miss." My brothers and I all noticed that Jake Heaps did not throw the ball downfield, at all in the second half (and not much in the first). I'm not sure if it was by design or receivers weren't getting open or if Heaps had no confidence. Anyway you dice it, we had absolutely no threat to stretch the field and so all of our dump passes went nowhere in the second half.
BYU Loses If... "We allow Texas to run consistently on us." Our defense was stellar throughout most of the game but in the 4th (probably because they were exhausted from the offense's 3 and outs) they just couldn't stop the run. When it was 3rd and 6 on Texas' last drive, they easily ran the ball for 9 yards without even getting touched.
BYU Loses If... "Texas stops our run and makes us one-dimensional" Our run game was non-existent. I've heard so much about how much of a stud Juice was going to be this year (as he was at the end of last year) but thus far he has not really shown me anything. None of our three backs did a thing this game.
So, for the U game, I might just write an article called BYU Will Win Because... and leave it at that.
