PROVO — BYU finished the 2018 season with a heartbreaking loss at archrival Utah, followed by a dominating 49-18 victory over Western Michigan in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl.
Those games have fueled the Cougars during the offseason.
After suffering through an abysmal 4-9 season in 2017, BYU produced a 7-6 campaign last fall. The Cougars are looking to continue their upward trajectory as they open spring practices Monday.
“Connections were made for our players and our coaches between the hard work and dedication and being dissatisfied with the results of the previous season,” said associate head coach Ed Lamb.
