A Sea Of Red

I swear every time I watch BYU it is a different and very good QB. Romney beats Boise - then they start a little badass who runs all over every one but apparently dinged last TD of half - Romney takes over 2nd half. Throws darts but I think matchup wise (running qb vs more pocket passer ) I prefer to play against Romney. We are in for a long night I am afraid - hope I am wrong

Our first season at FBS, they better enjoy it, change is coming.

That "little" badass, Jaren Hall, is 6'1" 205. He is a really impressive dual threat QB, and while Romney is a good enough passer to make me eat my words, given the choice, I'd rather play against him too.

No matter who QB is we need to get pressure on him and not let him run

I believe the very best we can hope for in this game and UVA, is a moral victory. Hope I am wrong and we pull off a Yuuuuuuuuge upset, but just don't see it in the cards.
At least we won't have to worry about trying to go for it on 4th down, in our own territory.

Great coaches and motivators will always give their teams a fighters chance and that is exactly what HCHF is. I am not saying we will win, but I am saying that we have a legit shot. Utah State turned it over 5 times!!! We won't do that. If we turn the ball over 1 time or less and we cause atleast 2 turnovers (which BYU tends to do) then keep any eye on this one.

I will be disappointed if we lose to BYU. I will be very disappointed if we lose to the Boo Hoos.

If the option kid is healthy thats a guaranteed 40 plus against our d.

Uva is all perkins on offense. Sometimes he tries to do too much and the ball is frequently exposed for turnovers but we will have a tough time containing those scrambles and designed runs. I havent seen many defenses get him down even with immense pressure for tfls. Thats where the bulks of uvas explosive plays have come from.

When is the strategy ever to not get pressure on the QB and to let the QB run?

I’m not sure you ever really coached at all. You give that great term an irreverent appeal.

You’ll be disappointed only for two reasons:
1) You expect a victory, and/or
2) You cheaply lack respect for what UVA has accomplished and the program turnaround under which they are currently going.

If the former, you are doing so with absolutely no evidence or logical reason for such an expectation.

If the latter, I’m shocked. Because a real coach NEVER disrespects or takes their opponent lightly.

I see no evidence in your behavior that you ever really coached at all.

Thus #fraudcoach

When it comes to UVA football, there is not a person in the world who dislikes a team as much as I dislike the Boo Hoos. I have zero respect for them.

Spoken like a fan. Not a coach.

When it comes to UVa football, Ballcoach hates them so much that we won't even buy a ticket to watch LU play them; I'm not even sure if he would go if he were given a FREE ticket.

Free tickets is what the ol' ballcoach lives for so I wouldn't be so sure.

More than you dislike Tennessee?

It will almost certainly be Baylor Romney. Jaren Hall is a phenomenal athlete (his dad was one of BYU's best running backs), but with a concussion, I don't think he'll be able to go Saturday. Zach Wilson had surgery on his hand and is probably out for the year. Romney, as a walk-on, has been a really good surprise (I think he's the best gamer of all of them). Backup will be Joe Critchlow, who has experience starting but didn't do anything to write home about.

I'm excited to see if we're able to contain Liberty's offense at all, or if it becomes a pinball game scoreboard scoring fest.

Weather appears to be pretty nice, although it will get cold at night.

Yes, by a point. My most disliked teams in no certain order:

UVA, Tennessee, ohio state, all PAC 12 teams, Oklahoma, All Big 10 teams, except Penn State, Notre Dame, Texas, Louisville.

When did Texas Notre Dame and Louisville join the B1G

Several reasons for optimism for Liberty (including Romney, the probable starter, has a sore foot and the two above him on the depth chart are probable no's):

I expect Romney to get the nod, with Critchlow in relief, if needed. Let Hall fully recover from a concussion, and let Wilson fully recover from thumb surgery.

Comma placement matters:

There - all fixed!

Would love to know your reasons for disliking each of the teams if you had time.

True but you’ve proven time and again your knowledge is quite suspect
