 BYU Cougars
The BYU Cougar offense will attempt to shake off two consecutive lethargic performances and hit its stride against TCU’s top-ranked defense on Thursday night in Fort Worth, Texas.

First, I believe that Max Hall was sacked by Utah State in the 4th quarter of that game, plus, in the first game he got hit in the end zone and fumbled the ball, so while it technically doesn't count as a sack, he still took the hit, so he has been hit a couple times, but I agree with you, if BYU can keep up their record of protecting Max Hall then that will bode very well for them in this game.

I think your projection of TCU winning will not pan out. I don't believe that BYU has come out on all cylinders yet this season, as they have not yet had an opponent worthy of them doing this. They have been much more conservative than I think we will see in this game and I expect to see them come out with a full arsenal and that TCU won't be ready for what BYU will throw at them.

My prediction BYU 28 - TCU 14

thanks for your comment. I stand corrected. USU did register a sack in the second half. I hope my prediction is wrong, but I can't let the heart get involved in a clinical assessment of what I'm seeing on the field. I am disturbed by the sputtering offense the past two games, and a short week of practice and playing on the road is not encouraging.
