PROVO — BYU senior linebacker Grant Jones' exact spot on the BYU football team hasn't been certain during his four years playing for the Cougars, but he was in the exact right spot early during the Cougars' 24-7 loss to Boise State last Friday.
During the game's opening possession, the 6-foot-6 linebacker effectively stepped back in coverage to pick off a Matt Rypien pass to help the Cougars get off to a quick 7-0 lead.
"We had a lot of pressure coming on that play, so I knew that if I just read the quarterback's eyes and play aggressive on that one," Jones said of the play.
