Boise State at BYU

My how things have changed in such a short time. BYU and Boise State have been perhaps the most stable winning programs outside the Power Five Conferences for decades. They enter this game with a combined 3-6 record, and BYU is still looking for their first win of the season against FBS competition. Bronco Mendenhall left for Virginia, and it appears that the quality of recruiting has left with him. It certainly appears the Cougars' streak of 12 straight seasons of playing .500 or better is over. To make matters worse, the Cougars' struggling offense may be down to their third string QB for this one. Boise State has gone 18 seasons of winning eight or more games, and at 2-2 that may also be in jeopardy. The Broncos have scored in the 20s in three of their four games - a far cry from what we are used to seeing here. I think the defenses rule the roost in this one, so play on the UNDER.
