OM will win just due to the fact that BYU won't be able to stop them from running the ball down their throat all game. BYU is overrated imo and OM will suprise them in Oxford.

I think they are -2 currently, but I'd imagine it'll be a push by gameday.

I think they win, but it should be close.

I think turnovers and special teams are going to be the keys to the game. We've been horrible regarding turnovers for, oh, forever now, whereas I think our special teams have been pretty consistent over the past few years.

Actually, I'd say our special teams are some of the best in the SEC. Punting, returning, and field goals will be huge in this game.

BYU -3 per my bookie. This is the first time I've looked at this line. The pure fact that BYU is favored at any SEC venue besides Vandy should be grounds for a HC firing.

QB Killa strikes again

The first team offense at BYU only got one series in Saturday's scrimmage but sophomore quarterback Jake Heaps and his group made the most of it, mixing things up as they drove 72 yards for a touchdown.

It required 11 total plays - six runs and five passes - to cover the distance, but it was a methodically successful performance.

"The first team offense only got one drive as a group and it was pretty good," Doman said. "I was really pleased with that first drive. We have an emphasis that we want to start fast and set the tempo of the game early, and those guys did a great job."

The offense only faced two third downs and both required three yards or fewer, making it easier to get the requisite distance.

The drive was capped by a nice surge by senior JJ Di Luigi, who ran it in from six yards out for the score.

BYU beat Oklahoma two seasons ago before going 11-2. They slumped a bit last season, going 7-6 with a freshman quarterback (rated the #1 high school quarterback two years ago by Rivals), but should look to improve greatly this season, especially on offense. They are a good football program, but you're an Arkansas fan, so I don't expect you to know dick anyway.

The shouldn't be favored at an SEC venue regardless, but I did forget to factor in how shitty your crowd is. Vegas wins again

The line opened at BYU -1, but early money on BYU pushed it to BYU -3.

I also think it will be close, but have no idea who will win.

I actually picked OM +3, but I occasionally pick for OM to win and State to lose. That way, if I lose the bet, I still win, and I feel like I 'bought' a State win. If I win the bet, at least I have some money.

This is a sad sad statement. I know STATE has had its share of bad losses at home, but anytime a home team fromthe SEC. maybe besides Vandy, has to suprise a team from a conference like the MWC its sad.

Houston wins those Mississippi recruiting championships so fast, it messes you up.

Ole Miss' secondary is awful. BYU will win by 7+.
