BYU Football Countdown: Player 44 – No helmet, no problem

5.5 wins. That is the expected win total for BYU Football according to the latest Sportsbooks. What is crazy about this is BYU plays three games that are just about guaranteed wins (Idaho state, Liberty and UMass) so essentially the betting books are saying that there is a 50% that BYU Football will go 2-7 in the other games.

While 2-7 is the worst case scenario is my opinion, I find it impossible to find a scenario where BYU is actually 50% likely to do that bad. Afterall, according to ESPN projections, the Cougars are favored in their final eight games… Again, odd how they can be favored in eight games but only be projected to win 5.
