BYU Stuff (Casey)

So it looks like things with San Jose State are not done! Today BYU announced it has scheduled a home and home with San Jose State. In 2015 BYU will travel to Spartan Stadium in San Jose California and in 2017 BYU will welcome the Spartans to Provo. Looks like a good game but as a BYU fan I would have enjoyed seeing the Other Spartan team here in Provo.

No not these Spartans although they are hillarious! I'm talking about These Spartans!

Here is the link to the story of the BYU vs SJSU game.

So today BYU finished Fall camp with a scrimmage at Lavell Edwards Stadium and from all I saw things are beginning to come together. The offense looked good at times and definitely went fast and hard. Taysom Hill looked real good and crisp with his passing and at one point I saw him throw a pass over 50 yards, I don't think we have to really worry about his arm strength. The Offensive Line although still patched together looked pretty good at times and did open up some holes for the running backs. The defense had some moments. Field Corner Robert Daniels had a pick of a throw from Ammon Olsen and Michael Dolman had a Sack on Taysom Hill as well. I also noticed that Daniels was able to run down Hill from behind on a QB bootleg that fooled everyone, I'm not sure whether to contribute that to Daniels Speed or to the thought that maybe after knee surgery Taysom is not as fast as he was last year? But the Highlight of the scrimmage was close to the end when Algie Browns run where he just went into Beast Mode and took guys out left and right breaking 3 tackles on his way to a 27 yard gain.

Here is the link to that Algie Brown Run!

So as fall camp comes to an end and Virgina Prep starts tomorrow I am more excited than ever to watch me some BYU football. The coaches are ready, I think the players are ready, and I for one am VERY ready. Its about time to Rise and Shout folks so get ready because Cougar Football is only 10 days away!

Another quick note for all you BYU fans. According to Athlon Sports they have ranked BYU's Linebacker corp as the #10 best Linebacking group in the country. This is great company to be in but I think they could be higher. Number 9 is Washington and USC is 8 and I think BYU's linebackers are better in my mind than both of those but to be listed as 10th is and awesome achievement!

BYU is also mentioned in Athlon as having the #12 Wide Receiver Group in the Country!
