Reggie Ball is fantastic. He makes smart decisions and is an accurate passer on the underneath and mid-range passes. He missed a deep ball or two but he has the arm and will hit them given a couple more throws. There was the interception that resulted from the miscommunication with the receiver but those happen. Too bad Ball didn't come a year earlier. I think we would have won 10 games with him last year (he wouldn't have thrown all of those interceptions).
This season will be all about Reggie Ball because we have no running game. P.J. runs hard but I don't think he is the answer. I was hoping to see Woods tonight but I don't think he got a carry.
I felt that BYU was more or less able to run at will on us. I was thankful they did not and let us keep the game close. It worries me though.
I thought Gailey called a pretty good game. He started off with conservative play calling but let Ball throw more as the night progressed. I think the loss was just on account of us being the weaker team.
I posted a prediction of 3 to 4 wins and I think I'm about right on that. I am worried that BYU was one of my locks for a win though. I don't believe we will go winless like Beau Bach predicted today. (I won't call his pick idiotic because it is a possibility. I just don't see it as a probability).
I had a scary thought tonight. We lose Smith, Fox and Brown this year. This year it is the DL and next year it will be the LBs.
