BYU-Tulane

Well, it seemed like they started slow, but the facts appear to be that they scored on their first 6 possessions. I was put off, I suppose, by the field goals on the first two drives. I wish Bronco would risk a little more down inside the 5 yard line; I think it's important for the boys to have experience, gained in JV-type games (Tulane) with that kind of do-or-die scenario.

Kariya looks pretty good. Maybe it's Harvey Unga's hammy, but Kariya looks better right now. The defense certainly looks good enough to make last week look like no fluke. They're quick and get to the ball, they swarm, they hit hard, and for the first time in memory, they appear to be good tacklers, with good technique; head in front, wrap up, hold on. The only BYU team I have any memory of that were good tacklers was the 1996 team that went 14-1. Speaking of which, I watched that game on Altitude the other day, and it was pretty good. I forgot that the 1996 team had such a good defense.

Max made a couple of terrible throws (including his pick), but a couple of real good throws. But I'm still worried. That TD throw to Jacobsen that he wrestled away from the defender, that was actually not a very good throw. Jacobsen saved him.
