BYU Football: Takeaways from the win over McNeese State

There’s the old adage that a win is a win.

BYU Football picked up their third win of the season, taking down FCS opponent McNeese State in front of the home crowd on Saturday 30-3, but it wasn’t pretty.

The Cougars were far from sharp in the win, with mental mistakes, dropped passes, and turnovers. Fortunately, they’re a better team than McNeese State, so they were able to win despite the sloppiness.

That won’t happen next week, when BYU travels to take on another Top 10 team in Washington. The Cougars will have to play a much cleaner game in order to have a shot at a second major upset.
