What Can Not Happen This Week…

2 September 2008 Quinn Gooch 6 Comments

We just had a somewhat questionable performance on Saturday, and everyone watched the UCLA game last night.  Lets not get ahead of ourselves and start looking forward to the UCLA game.  Coach Mendenhall will do his job keeping the team focused on the task at hand, but the team will be back in school.  That means they will be approached by students, and faculty about what they thought about the UCLA game.  Wait, what? Don’t we play Washington this week.  It can be tough for some guys to stay focused during the first week of school and practice.  Players start to see how demanding playing football and being a full-time student can be.  The football staff will be sure to pound the concept of taking one game at a time, because for BYU, this next game is the most important.  Then after that game, the UCLA will become the most important.  Do not think Washington is going to come into their own stadium, lay down and give us the keys to the house.  This next game and every game after it, will be a dog fight.  Everyone in the country is waiting for the Cougars to lose, so they can talk about how superior the BCS conference teams are.

I heard the Huskies said that Pitta would be an offensive tackle on their team, and they said that Max’s article in the Times sucked.  I think I just heard Mr. Locker laugh and ask what kind of person would name their son Jan, and he said the only Cougars that could tackle him were the BYU Cougarettes in the endzone.

Get a Bronco scowl on your faces and get to work.

    Hmm. I would have thought an offensive tackle at UW would be heavier than 250… I guess we don’t have much to worry about from their OL.

    Lets have a sense of humor folks.

    Split it’s a swipe at Pitta that he is too slow with no hands so wouldn’t be a TE at WA. But I think Gooch was off about Locker. He said the only cougars he would LET tackle him would be the cougarettes. I think he added he would let the d’s sisters try and tackle him too. If I remember correctly the shot on Jan by Locker started “isn’t she the Brady girl with glasses?”

    Keep up the insights Gooch! They are great! Keeps my blue goggles from fogging up!

    I should have put a smiley face after my comment.

    I did hear that they’ve got some pretty big OLs, however, that would put our’s to shame. Here’s to a BYU team that hits position mastery this week and goes to 2-0.

    Ha ha… My friend’s cousin’s sister knows a guy at UW and he said Unga couldn’t run his way out of wet paper bag. Also, I heard Willingham say BYU wouldn’t know good coaching if Knute Rockne came down himself and starting calling plays. :)
